Book NowRaffles Beijing Hotel Review
Singaporean designer Grace Soh and her team transformed this hotel into a vivid, modern space while retaining its history. Crystal chandeliers illuminate the lobby, and the grand white staircase is enveloped in a royal-blue carpet. The atrium is adorned with 13 large cloth lanterns in olive green, plum, purple, and yellow—a welcome change from the ubiquitous red. The presidential suite is one of the largest, most luxurious accommodations in Beijing. For dining, choose between French and Italian restuarants. The Writer's Bar is replete with large leather armchairs and dark, polished floors. This is a great location for visitors who plan to do some sightseeing: Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and Wangfujing are all nearby.
