China Hotels

There's no better location than this hotel. Walking distance to the forbidden city and to the shopping area. Located on the most historical road, the hotel is part of history itself. On that note, the hotel rooms do seem a tad bit old but the hotel staff is so nice. Be careful of tuk tuk drivers. They agreed to 40 RMB for two but when we arrived, he changed to 40 per person.

We stayed 4 days during Chinese New Year and had a wonderful experience. Very dedicated, attentive staff. The room was spacious, modern. The bathroom was large and had a great "spa" feel and layout. It also was quiet and peaceful which is nice after a long day. The hotel has a very good restaurant, China Grill with stunning view of the city.

From the moment you enter the Peninsula, you are greeted by a staff that is dedicat to making your stay as comfortably as possible. Kurt, the manager, is the epitome of this. Kurt arranges all you need to make your stay perfect. For my wife and I, he was invaluable. From arranging cars to getting us reservations at the best places, Kurt was so great. he made our stay in Beijing perfect. The Peninsula is a great, great place to stay. Staff like Kurt makes it even more so.

Walking distance from Zhusnzhou railway station with nice shopping mall.

very nice hotel breakfast buffet excellent close to the business area

Good hotel for the location to the metro station And near to the big mall there is a Starbucks and some Italian restaurant near this place so it is a good place to stay

Great hotel but staff mediocre. Expedia promised breakfast included but hotel did not honor the email reservation. Had to call staff every day to get room made up. Poor communication.

This hotel is just simply fabulous. 1. The design is great in 'art deco' style. 2. Staff were so friendly and helpful. It really counted that we were residents and got great tables via Concierge two nights running at the 12th floor terrace bar. This hasn't always been the case on our travels 3. Food was fabulous. Breakfast had great choices with really top quality food. The blueberry pancakes were just to die for along with the Eggs Benedict 4. The view of the Shanghai terrace bar was just incredible. This has to be the world's best skyline at night. We went to New York last year and this just knocks spots off it..... 5. Room was lovely. Very spacious and had a great system for controlling everything from air con to radio to lighting system etc. The toiletries are great (Oscar de la Renta). Like most guests i'm sure a few found their way back to England and when we use them it just transports us back to Shanghai! 6. Location is great. It's just 5 minutes walk, if that from the Bund, which is the main thoroughfare on the river that most tourists go to. Everything about this place just oozes absolute quality. It's grand but does not have the stuffiness and formality of some of the grand London hotels.I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anybody staying in Shanghai. I read somewhere that it has been voted best Asian city hotel two years running and this doesn't surprise me at all.
