Park Plaza Beijing Wangfujing

We chose this hotel based on the reviews and we weren't disappointed. The hotel is around the corner from the subway station, which makes it an easy commute from the airport. Lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance, and we easily walked to Tiananmen Square. There is a Starbucks, McDonald's and convenience store outside if you need those. The staff are very friendly and really try to help you. The rooms are comfortable and a good size. One helped us with our Universal Studios booking. I would say that I wish the staff were more knowledgeable, and maybe it was just one of the receptionists. I wanted advice on how to get to Tiananmen Square for the flag lowering ceremony, and I had read online that it was tricky. The receptionist really didn't know and he just told me that all entrances were available (which is actually not true at all, many are blocked off). Given a lot of international foreigners stay at this hotel, and this is a main tourist attraction that is close by, I would expect him to know how to guide me, so that was a bit disappointing. But overall, I would recommend this hotel. Good value for the price.
