I had booked a room because my meeting took part in the hotel - it was a huge mistake.
This is an old style Chinese hotel - the rooms are small, the food is bad and the service is non existent. There weren't any maps in English.
I went out for every meal and in the evening I noticed that taxi drivers were reluctant to take you there (it's difficult to get to despite its 'central' location with great views over 12 lanes of road).
The hotel offers reflexology, I went along and I left after someone came with a plastic bowl of hot water with 'aromatic' tea bags to aid relaxation prior to the massage.
There are lots of wonderful hotels in Beijing - this is one to avoid.
