Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing Beijing — Hotel in Beijing

Hello friends from Wangfujing Mandarin Oriental, here comes Mr. Xu’s review, I’ve been waiting for a long timeExcept for those in Shanghai and Hainan, all the Wenhua in the territory have the experience of stayingMandarin Oriental is a hotel that you don't think is particularly brilliant overall, but it is full of detailsBelonging is a kind of low-key luxury, which makes people feel very richTake a look at Wangfujing Mandarin Oriental from several aspectsLocation: There is nothing to say about this location. It is just upstairs in Wangfu Central, and there are luxury stores downstairs to meet shopping needs. Next door is Wangfujing Pedestrian Street, where there are a lot of food and drink. And the scenic spots in that area can basically be reached on foot, such as Tiananmen Square, Jinyu Alley, etc. If you travel, the subway station is less than two or three minutes away from the hotel, and there is also a taxi in the downstairs lobby.Landscape: I can say that the landscape of Beijing Wenhua is indeed more hard-core than the others, after all, you can see the Forbidden City. The restaurant can directly see the Forbidden City, and there is a terrace outside where you can take pictures, including some guest rooms. You can also see the Forbidden City. It is very OK to have such a view.Room type: I chose a deluxe double bed room this time. It may be a fan fan or a black diamond from Ctrip. It was upgraded to a premium room. Although I didn’t understand, what is the difference between a luxury room and a premium bed? The picture is the bed of a premium room. There is an extra wooden frame around, and then my room can see a little bit of the Forbidden City, which is probably the difference. The room is square as a whole, and it doesn't look too gorgeous, but it feels like something. The bedroom part is not particularly big, but the bathroom is very big. What surprised me is that there is a dressing table. You know, many hotels have a dressing table or a cloakroom with a dressing table only if they have an executive-level room type. .Service: Wenhua’s service has never been mentioned. I think there is no problem with the top three in the industry. What surprised me this time is that Ctrip called me to confirm the order information immediately after placing the order, because there is a free car in the package. The service of Universal Studios also confirmed the time with me immediately, this is really to like. The second is that from entering the hotel to leaving the store, the staff you meet will take the initiative to say hello. However, there is a slight fly in the ointment. When calling for room service, the surname + Mr. was not able to be reported. This can be improved a little. By the way, if you can still have dental floss.Catering: After enjoying breakfast for two days, many people may think that the food and beverages of star-rated hotels are not bad, but in actual experience, Wenhua still makes more details, such as the freshness of the fruit, and this time I met red bayberry. , You must know that this is a relatively difficult fruit to handle. It takes a lot of courage for Wenhua to handle it well and display it. Staple foods like beef noodles are really yyds, and you have to order two bowls every time.Price: The price of Beijing Wenhua is indeed very high, but since they have chosen star hotels, the cost performance category has already been put aside. For this price, I think it would be difficult to find another hotel in Beijing where you can see the Forbidden City after waking up.Finally, I would like to thank Wangfujing Wenhua for preparing the panda and two room cards for me, so that I can take it back as a souvenir. I also thank the friends at the front desk for their warm service, including Quincy Wang and James Song. There is a pretty lady with a mushroom head, I didn't get your...

Let me talk about a bug that surprised me first! It takes three minutes for the water in the sink to heat up, and it takes another three minutes to turn it off and on again! Not only does it make people wait speechlessly, but the water is also wasted to make people feel distressed! There is also a downside that is enough to make people collapse, that is, the water in the rain is hot and cold throughout the whole process, and it is impossible to take a hot bath with peace of mind, not to mention relaxing the tired body, it is simply frightening, and the body and mind are ready 😭 The fire is big! However, the maintenance staff responded quickly and did a good job of repairing it.Let's talk about full marks~Mandarin Oriental's service is really nothing to say! I called three days in advance to ask about my preferences, whether there are any children, and asked carefully about boys and girls, because the children’s equipment (see Figure 12) is divided into men and women, and the children’s equipment is a big box, absolutely not perfunctory, and the variety is complete Portions are huge! Even the welcome desserts are presented according to the ages of the guests. Because there are children in our family, we present cute chocolate dots (Figure 13). For the elderly in the parents’ room, we prepare a large box of soft pastries ( No picture here), I ate until I left Beijing🤣.In terms of facilities, the room is quite big, the bed is very comfortable, and the slippers (Picture 8) have a sense of stepping on **. The tea set (Picture 6) and ornaments (Picture 7) are very historical and fit the ancient and traditions of old Beijing! There are also a lot of hangers (Figure 10), and they are of a complete range. There are corresponding hangers for suits, shirts, trousers, and skirts. Moreover, shoe lasts and lulu yoga mats are also provided (Figure 9)!The smiles of the waiters are very kind, from the heart, definitely not a professional smile, and they are considerate of the guests, because they arrived early, and the room has not come out after check-in, but you can rest assured to hand over your luggage to them, the room After coming out, they will responsibly send you back to the room, and they will call me to notify me, and they will also help me receive a courier, and send it back to the room thoughtfully.Although the windows of the room cannot face the Forbidden City, the small windows on the side can see the golden roofs of the Forbidden City! (Unfortunately no picture here)In short, it is still highly recommended, after all, the water flow in every room should not be so erratic, right? The wholehearted service, perfect bedding, comfortable equipment and well-established accessories really make people willing to pay expensive...

We stayed for 3 nights at MO Wangfujing and I can see how people rave about this place. Apart from a minor hiccup, we've been well taken care of during our stay. While what this hotel offered was not exactly for us, we would nevertheless recommend this hotel to other guests who fall into their target clientele.

First off, you can't beat MO Wangfujing's location. Situated in Wangfujing and a stone throw's away from The Forbidden Palace, this hotel offers unparalleled access to 2 of the most popular tourist sites in Beijing. The room was spacious and well-equipped, with a huge bathroom and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking (for us) the Wangfujing Avenue. For guests who are wiling to pay more, you'll get a glimpse of The Forbidden City from your room which was honestly pretty insane considering this will most likely cost you your head about 100 years ago. One small knock on the room is that the powder room seemed to have no AC and the door slammed HARD every time we tried to shut it. The smart toilet was also way too sensitive and will open even if you are just walking to the main door.

Service has been exceptional and apart from a minor hiccup during check-in when the staff accidentally placed another guest's greeting card in our room, the staff went above and beyond to pamper us. You'll get a dedicated butler service via WhatsApp and texts and requests were responded within minutes if not seconds. The staff saw us taking a photo of the goldfish above the reception area and ran after us to give us a fridge magnet capturing that. Housekeeping staff also kindly delivered female sanitary products during an emergency and gave us instructions on where to buy more should we need it. They've also kindly helped us to arrange for outgoing parcels. Speaking of deliveries, the concierge team will bring food deliveries to your room, which a lot of the 5 star hotels don't do nowadays (like The Peninsula Beijing).

We came to Beijing to spend some family time and did not do a lot of sightseeing nor shopping, so MO Wangfujing's biggest draws unfortunately went right over our head. Therefore, I felt the price tag was not very attractive, especially considering there are a lot of competitive offerings within walking distance (say WA or Peninsula). 55 sqm were also quite small considering Peninsula's all suite offerings with entry level rooms coming in at 60 sqm and are considerably cheaper. But hey, you get what you pay for. For those who are visiting Beijing for the first time or those who came to shop, I have no doubt that MO Wangfujing will be an...
