Located in the heart of downtown Wangfujing, the grand Waldorf Astoria Beijing is setting a new standard in luxury hotel living. Behind its iconic architectural design and eye-catching bronze exterior, the hotel houses 176 elegant rooms spread over 12 floors. Accented by oriental design and scattered with unusual art features, each of the spacious rooms and suites display a modern twist on traditional Chinese style, while large floor to ceiling windows frame the view of the Beijing city skyline.
Dining out in Beijing presents you with a huge variety of traditional or fusion options, and in the Waldorf Astoria itself there are sophisticated restaurants and bars aplenty. We love the opulent surrounds of Zijin Mansion where you can enjoy traditional eastern cuisine from custom-made sandalwood chopsticks and choose from one of the 400 wines in the hotel's legendary wine collection. At Brasserie 1893 the chefs can be seen showcasing their skills in the show kitchen, while the iconic Peacock Alley lounge is the perfect place to unwind with a classic cocktail and take in the ambience.
Facilities at the hotel include the tranquil spa which offers treatments inspired by traditional Chinese medicine philosophies, a well-equipped fitness centre, heated indoor pool and bubbling whirlpool as well as a 24 hour complimentary business centre.
