Mandarin Oriental Wangfujing Beijing

Unclaimed

An incredible experience that exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived until our departure, every aspect of our stay was flawless. The attention to detail, impeccable service, and luxurious amenities left us in awe. The staff, without exception, were warm, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. The dining experiences were nothing short of exquisite, with a range of culinary delights that delighted our palates. Our room was a sanctuary of comfort and elegance, offering breathtaking views and a sense of tranquility. This place truly defines luxury and excellence. Our stay here was nothing short of perfection.

Where to begin? This is possibly the best hotel in which we’ve ever stayed. The staff made us feel as though we were their only guests. The location is perfect for touring, and we easily walked to the most amazing Peking duck restaurant for dinner. The property is beautiful, the rooms well appointed, the cocktail bar (loved the hidden button to enter) and breakfast divine. When in Beijing, treat yourself to this delightful place! And be prepared to rate all other luxury hotels against this one…

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 excellent choice.

I dined at the restaurant, very high quality and delicious food, but the personnel barely speaks english. Given the MO international reputation, I wouldn’t have expected that

What an incredible hotel… in the heart of Beijing… the view from MO BAR is just incredible
