Fodor's "It remains in a fabulous location for sightseeing (a few blocks from the East Gate of the Forbidden City), the service is good, and the price is right." Full review
Travel + Leisure "When lit up at night, it resembles a giant lantern, one of the traditional Chinese elements that are strongly represented in the design of this 89-room hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "A swish boutique hotel ten minutes’ walk from the Forbidden City, with clean lines, glass walls and a bamboo theme giving it a distinctive, modish look."
DK Eyewitness "A stone's throw away from the Forbidden City and Tian'an Men Square, Hotel Kapok's grid-like exterior is eye-catching, as is the bamboo-filled reception area."
Star Service "Located in the center of historical Beijing, this hot design hotel is part of a regional chain of hotels blending boutique style with Chinese hospitality." Full review
Time Out "One of Beijing’s small but burgeoning band of boutique hotels, the Kapok appeared in 2006 and was nicknamed ‘the Blur’ even before it opened, thanks to its ‘glowing’ grid-like exterior." Full review

Concierge "With a prime central location adjacent to Wangfujing shopping street, this vast hotel has been popular with business and leisure travelers since it opened in 2001."
Fodor's "The wow factor at the Grand Hyatt Beijing... comes via its huge glass facade and even more extraordinary Olympic-size swimming pool." Full review
Insight Guides "One of Beijing’s top hotels, a favourite of businessmen and short-term tourists, that includes top-notch restaurants, excellent service, and houses a museum of ancient Chinese bronzes."
Lonely Planet "Stylish creation lording it over Wángfǔjǐng’s Oriental Plaza, but loses marks for extortionate wi-fi charges."
Travel + Leisure "Super-solicitous service; excellent in-house dining and entertainment; and the most outrageously over-the-top indoor “urban resort” in the city." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Part of Oriental Plaza, the country’s largest commercial complex, this curved glass tower is "one of the places to be in Beijing"." Full review
DK Eyewitness "In the glimmering Oriental Plaza complex that dominates the central shopping district, no other hotel in Beijing is better located, and few are as well equipped."
