10/10 Excellent
"What a beautiful hotel! The staff really went out of their way to make the experience enjoyable. From access to the showers after a long flight to having stamps on hand to mail out postcards, they really enhanced our whole experience in Beijing. The rooms were comfortable and had great views as well. Bathrooms were excellent as well and had everything you could need. The cleaning staff was also amazing, even setting out some clothes I had washed to dry more quickly. The attention to detail was outstanding. The location was also spectacular. A 30-second walk to the subway (it's almost connected to the hotel) made travel really convenient as well. It is located on Dengshikou Station (Line 5), and only 1 stop away from Line 6 (going North) and Line 1 (going South). Highly recommended hotel. We really enjoyed it!"

"I was pleasantly surprised with my stay at this hotel. It has to rank very close to the top of my hotel stays and i've been to many. I had a little bit of anxiety travelling to China cause i'm not fluent at all in the language. I only speak Cantonese. However, the staff all pretty much knew the basics of the English language which i really appreciated. The Suite that we had was UNBELIEVABLE!!! It was so gorgeous. I loved waking up and just relaxing in the room looking out the window. Also the Club floor is a MUST. The staff there are all so good. I felt so bad whenever they came by to clear my plate. I wanted to help out and do it myself. LOL. The food was also EXCELLENT on the club floor. Whatever room you're deciding to stay in ... i highly recommend paying extra for the club floor access. It's worth every penny. The pool was excellent too. It was great winding down at the end of a long walking day with laps in the pool. I just wanted to thank everyone at the hotel. My first trip to China was made incredibly rememberable with my hotel stay at the Rennaisance. Keep up the great work."
