Kuancheng Manchu Autonomous County Vacations from ￥98,667

Good location, nice staff and excellent service. The breakfast buffet was a big plus to us. The only thing I was not impressed was the airport drop off service. The driver was not professional at all (plate number ending 35335). The car was 15 minutes later than our scheduled pickup time. The driver never got out of the car to help us with the luggage loading. The hotel staff was helping instead. The driver was eating tomato and cucumbers with one hand driving the entire ride. After we got to the airport, he continued eating and never communicated or got out of the car to help. I was very pleased with everything this hotel offered except the airport ride.

Nice hotel, very spacious room, a small rooftop pool and extremely friendly staff. We really got all the help we needed from them and they were very kind the whole stay. Would highly recommend staying here.

Hotel rooms is spacious and location is good with shopping malls nearby (Joy city) with good variety of dining options and PopMart. Hotel is rather old, breakfast spread is very limited. Reception staff can be more friendly and helpful- most of them we encountered for our 6 days stay are gloomy looking. Swimming pool smaller than in pictures. Not near to Tiananmen nor forbidden city. Would recommend if prices are reasonable.

We enjoyed our stay at Sofitel Beijing Central and would recommend it. Pros: 1. Location was excellent in the heart of Beijing. 2. Rooms are incredibly spacious with a large glass wall to view the city. 3. Luxurious bath towards the middle of the room was opulent! 4. Walk-in robe with auto-lighting 5. Very comfortable bed and pillows and super king size (we have king size at home) 6. Options for meals 7. Quiet Cons: 1. Service. In comparison to the Hyatt in Shenzhen we found reception a bit wanting; due to the sit down nature with clients and staff, wait times to talk to staff seemed over the top. However, the team looking after the elevators were extremely helpful and vigilant. We never had to wait for an elevator from the ground floor and the team directed us to the waiting elevator. 2. The lobby is a bit smaller compared to other hotels we've been to and sometimes there wasn't enough available seating; we ended up going straight to our rooms rather than being able to enjoy the facility. 3. Some things are a bit dated and could easily be replaced such as the large couch (ours had a stain and was tilted toward the front) and the bedhead (bit of wear and tear on the leather). A few of the wood-look tiles have lifted ever so slightly but noticeable enough for a top hotel. In saying that, I'm splitting hairs. We had a wonderful time and would stay here again. BTW: still waiting for the return of our deposit!
