Character and identity
Perched in the upper floors of the Beijing Yintai Centre on Chang'an Avenue, this 237-room tower hotel trades on altitude: the lobby sits on the 63rd floor, the China Grill restaurant and bar occupy the 66th, and the spa, gym and indoor pool look out from the 59th. A 2019 refresh threaded courtyard-house motifs (koi in the carpets, mahogany detailing, plum blossom in the rooms) through an otherwise clean, minimalist design that keeps the skyline as the focal point. Service is hushed and notably proactive, with a slight Park Hyatt Tokyo echo for anyone who knows that property.
Who's it for
Best for:
Design-minded city travellers and business guests who want height, glass and quiet over buzz at street level. Couples after sunset skyline views (book a room facing CCTV or CITIC Towers), and anyone using the Guomao subway connection to move quickly between Daxing Airport, the Forbidden City and the CBD shopping circuit.
Should look elsewhere:
Families wanting a dedicated kids' programme, beach or resort feel will find this a thin fit. Anyone who needs fast, unrestricted internet should be warned: Wi-Fi is sluggish and the usual China blocks apply, with VPNs often failing in the capital.
Bottom line
The view is the product here, and the vertical layout (lobby, dining and spa on separate floors via separate lifts) is the price you pay for it. Spend up for a CCTV or CITIC Towers-facing room, plan on breakfast at China Grill for the live stations and Beijing specialities, and bring patience for the internet if you're working.
