Best thing about this hotel for us was the location. It is situated on Wangfujing Street, the main shopping street. It is literally 2 minutes walk to the pedestrianised area, and also to the night market just off Wangfujing Street where you can find all the food stalls (seahorses, cicadas, beetles, scorpions etc....not for the faint hearted. We didn't try... more

This hotel was great and I have to say exceeded my expectations. Now, I'm not saying it's the most amazing hotel I've ever been to, but it's a great hotel that satisfied all my needs and went above and beyond my expectations. I stayed here for 11 nights in April 2008. The room itself was spotless and the maid cleaned... more

I work in a hotel and I guess I can understand the limitations that hotels usually face. This hotel overall was "ok", I don't think it stands out in my memory as being one of the best, nor one of the worst. Most of the facilities and services here are, well, ordinary. One any traveller would expect. There was only... more

Crowne Plaza is a good hotel with a good location, right at the top of one of the main shopping streets. I stayed there recently in 3 rooms, with my wife & the kids as we explored Beijing for 6 days. Check-in is a little bureaucratic & not the fastest but it is fine, with pleasant staff. The rooms are... more

Stay at Crowne Plaza Beijing a few times from 2005 to 2007. Best mix of price, service and location in Wangfujing area in Beijing. Great location. Walking distance to the Forbidden City and Wangfujing Shopping District. Good restaurants around. Try to get a corner room for big windows facing west or south. Hotel reception staff has been very friendly and... more

The Crowne plaza is a good standard 5 star hotel. Location is good. You can walk to major tourist sights. Has a big atrium which gives you an airy feeling. Rooms are clean, however already a bit aged when it comes to furniture. During my stay quite a few travek groups used the hotel, so check-in was slow and breakfast... more

Selected Crown Plaze on the basis of TripAvisor.com reviews and found the hotel first class. Very clean and ALL staff spoke English including concierge and room attendants. Well located just one block away from the centre of the shopping district. Become a Priority Club member (free) and stay on the 'Club' floor and get free internet and light dinners. Has... more

stayed here 4th Jan for 4 nights, check in process quite swift, however, even though a Priority club Gold member received no perks or even free newspaper... :-( The hotel and rooms were modern, clean, nicely furnished with comfy beds, nice bathroom amenities and good lcd tv. The location was also very good for shopping as the main street was... more

I stayed here with my two teenage sons December 21 - 25, 2007. The hotel was okay, but certain aspects of it were infuriating. Our room was on the second floor, directly above the main, Chinese, restaurant. The worst problem with the room was that it was always HOT. We could not get it cool and management was not helpful... more
