Crowne Plaza Beijing Wangfujing (Beijing Cháoyáng youtáng)

Crowne Plaza Beijing Wangfujing (Beijing Cháoyáng youtáng) Review

The best thing about this hotel is its location on Wangfujing, thereby putting you in the center of Beijing's most famous shopping street, a spectacle unto itself, with China's largest Apple store at one end and a bustling food market—scorpions-on-a-stick, anyone?—at the other. The standard guest rooms, however, are small and, while the place provides everything you'd expect from a Crowne Plaza, there is a lack of knockout design details or killer features, as the rather uninteresting lobby makes plain. Craving more space? Try the executive floor, where guest rooms have extra work space and sprawling bathrooms.
