Review of Beijing Sunworld Hotel by Adam

We stayed at this hotel for two weeks for a recreational holiday, it was great! The hotel is located just around the corner from the bustling 'shopping' street, Wang Fu Jing (dajie!), there is a supermarket (open til 9pm) acroos the road, together with a fast-food cafe. The metro is 10-15 min. walk away (station: Wang Fujing). We were upgraded (to either deluxe, or executive), which is a large room with couch/sofa & coffee table - which was also great! Breakfast at the hotel is OK, but a little expensive (for Beijing/China) at RMB 68 each - but amply provided with fresh & tinned fruit, some cereal, typical Western hot buffet (but also congee!), breads & pastries, juices, tea&coffee, and made-to-order omelettes. Concierge helped us as much as possible - we did a number of DIY excursions (long distance buses to Great Wall, villages, Mountains, etc.) - they told us how to get there (bus stop), bus nos., etc. Beijing Tourist office on same street (next block W) - but they're not as helpful as concierge! Great restaurant nearby too, red laterns out front, past B. Tourist office.
