We took advantage of the short term visa that China allows and only stayed at Shangri-la China World Summit for just one night. We wanted a hotel that would be extra comfortable after a long flight. We could not have been more pleased with our choice. Check in was smooth and efficient and soon we were in our spacious room. The view of the city was fantastic. The beds were good size and very comfortable . The bathroom was very large and well appointed. And, the water pressure in the shower was perfect to get the kinks out after a long flight . There is also a lot of storage in the room . Our only (minor) complaints about the room were figuring out which light switches controlled which lights and the lack of (enough) outlets in the bedroom.
The pool and gym looked wonderfully relaxing. And, like the rooms, provided a great view of the city.
The bar, Atmosphere, on the top floor is supposed to be the highest in the city. The views are fantastic , the band was so-so , and, as to be expected, the drinks are overpriced.
The breakfast buffet was one of the best we have seen. There was a bit of continental choices and some Asian delights as well. The smoked duck and salmon were especially good.
Our trip was off to a great start with our stay at Shangri-La China World Summit Wing, Beijing.
