Fantastic apartment. Huge rooms and facilties. Good location. Breakfast ok, staff very helpful. Web site could explain the location better in the compound as some taxi drivers don't know where it is.

We spent 5 nights here in a 2 bed apartment (2 bathrooms also) as a party of 3. The whole experience greatly exceeded my expectations. Staff were friendly, helpful, and spoke excellent English. The apartment was beautiful - clean, fresh, lots of thoughtful touches. Rooms were extremely spacious, and the kitchen was well equipped in terms of appliances, including washing machine, dishwasher, iron and ironing board. There was no cutlery/crockery/pans, but a well stocked supermarket within the complex sells all of this. There's also a pharmacy and spa, and a lovely leisure complex with a large swimming pool, as well as a gym within the apartment building. It is a little out of the centre - minimum 20-30 mins in a cab outside rush hour (more than twice that at peak time) but cab fares were no more than £2-3.00. There are several restaurants within 10 mins walk, at the west gate of Chaoyang Park. On arrival, it did take us a few minutes to figure out which building in the complex was the Marriott, but the security guards were helpful in pointing us in the right direction. Would definitely recommend this place. The biggest downside was that every other hotel we stayed in afterwards was a disappointment in comparison!

this was first rate. The problem with cab drivers not knowing where it was was never a problem (we always carried card with address). It was relatively close to the airport. Our only real complaint was that the staff was not all that knowledgeable about museums, etc.

This is a 5-star property at a 3-star price. For 3 of us in Beijing for 14 days on business, this hotel was perfect. Particularly the free internet access, free breakfast, on-site gym and walking distance to a variety of restaurants. Then there was the accommodation. We usually stay at the 5-star china world hotel, which would have cost us more than double what we paid here for the 2-bed/2-bath suite, and none of the room. The front desk staff was over the top helpful and gracious. Although it seems to be out of the way of the action, and for a tourist wanting to be near the center of town activities this is true, it was just a $3 cab ride to anywhere we needed to go. Will stay there again and recommend this bargain of a property!
