"The location of this popular sleeping ground for American tour groups is pretty well near perfect -- being so close to the Forbidden City, Tian'an Men Square, and the Wangfujing shopping area." Full review
Lonely Planet
"Refitted and overhauled in 2005, the five-star Crowne Plaza enjoys an excellent central location on Wangfujing Dajie, but has little character or charm with odd-looking sculpture dotted around." Full review
Rough Guide
"Well-established five-star chain hotel with arty pretensions (there’s an on-site gallery), and a handy location for the shops and sights (it’s near the Wangfujing subway stop)."
Star Service
"Primarily meant for business travelers, its location in the financial and business area is a plus. Its low rates can attract groups and tours on weekends, but usually the atmosphere is calm." Full review
