This was my first stay at the Four Seasons in Beijing. I was extremely pleased with the quality of this hotel, from the cleanliness and modernity of the rooms, to the excellent customer service. The hotel is well located in Beijing and the concierge is superb at helping travellers get where they want to go. Be sure to ask for a card which gives Mandarin instructions for taxi drivers to get you back. The breakfast buffet was fantastically prepared each day and the staff even went the extra mile to find me cinnamon for my oatmeal! The rooms are duly cleaned each day and, along with bottled water, they even replenish your Nespresso capsules for your in-room machine. The hotel also has a reasonable hotel gym and pool area. Finally, I want to say thank you to the reservations agent who, despite an error on my side in the original booking, was able to secure my room for an additional night, even as the hotel was fully booked. I will definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and colleagues. As a tip, be sure to load a VPN on your smart devices before coming to China as you won t be able to access many western apps without it.
