★★★★ 9.0 (4,091 reviews)

"Apart from the renovation which we were told beforehand, the room we had was dark (probably because it was a windowless room), humid, aircon wasn’t strong but they provided a fan. Could smell urine even with the toilet seat covered, toilet door was closed, to a point that i was awaken by the foul smell. Had to spray perfume to have it barely covered. Ventilation was super bad. Cons aside, service was good, fridge in room had free drinks. Would recommend to book a window room if you had to even though friend that stayed in the window room said it was bad too. There’s a mall few minutes walk away which was a plus. Good view on the reception floor too."

"I have to give a special shout-out to Amy, the concierge at Grand Hyatt Beijing! The hotel's location is superb, with excellent transport links. The staff are all incredibly warm and attentive, always greeting guests proactively.

The cleanliness is also top-notch; the room was spacious and bright, and the bedding was pristine, ensuring a very comfortable sleep. Overall, it was a fantastic stay!"

"Title: Poor soundproofing and cleanliness issues I had a very disappointing stay at this hotel. The most frustrating part was the poor soundproofing; the walls were so thin that I could clearly hear people talking in the neighboring rooms, which made it impossible to relax. The room itself was extremely cramped and had a strong musty, damp smell upon arrival. The bathroom was not clean, adding to the overall discomfort. Additionally, the electronics and facilities felt very outdated. For the price and location, you can definitely find much better options with better hygiene and service."
