We stayed New World Hotel for 3 nights and liked it a lot. Their complimentary breakfast was they perfect way to start my day and features a variety of breakfast foods including: a bowl of noodle, fried rice, porridge, omelet, sausage, bacon, danish, toasts, cereals, yogurt and fresh fruits and much more. Also they served a variety of drinks such... more

The hotel is a little out of the way in the Chaoyang District, near the Chaoyang theater (right across the street). Easy access to the subway and 10 minute ride subway to Silk Market, maybe 15 minute to Tiananmen Square. The hotel is very nice, modern rooms with LCD TV's. The breakfast buffet was excellent as well, especially suited for... more

Last May I stayed in the New World hotel again. This time I stayed in one of the 2 room apartments on the 9th floor. First time I stayed on one of the executive floors and was very pleased with that room. This room was very different. It was not refurbished for a long time. Although the rooms were clean,... more

Having refurbished its lobby, dining facilities and executive floors the hotel now offers a reasonably priced five star hotel in a great location in the CBD, providing you stay on the executive floors. Hopefully they will upgrade the other floors soon so it can compete with the extensive under-performing hotels in Beijing more

I was horrified that our 5 star hotel was about the same quality of a no-name motel you might pull into in the middle of the night on the side of the highway. The lobby is nice, but we had to change rooms 3 times. They first put us in a 2 bedroom suite on the 9th floor. HA. I... more

I stayed at the New World for two nights in a standard room. Although this hotel has had less than flattering reviews from its time before the Olympics but since it was renovated it has certainly picked up. The lobby is very bright and modern and is a welcoming sight on arrival. The check in process was simple and handled... more

At first impression, the hotel looks great. The lobby is newly refurbished - obviously for the Olympics. Upon entering their premises there were no bell boys and several people waiting to check-in and out at around 12pm. Their service was slow and at one point in time there were no staff at reception. I then took my luggage to my... more

I booked this room in June for two nights as I had gotten some corporate tickets to one day/night event at the Olympics. At that time, bookings were tough and rates were high. I paid rmb 5,0000 per night. Needless to say, as we got closer to the games, rates in general dropped like a stone. Some history on this... more

Stayed at this Asian-businessman-type hotel at the suggestion of the Chinese tourist agency who arranged for our family of 5 first trip to China. The lobby is on the 3rd floor of an office building. You need to change elevator banks on that floor to reach the rest of the building. A little odd; but you get to interact with... more
