Beijing West International Trade Hotel, Beijing

The hotel offered a spacious room on the 6th floor, named Executive Deluxe Room. The room had a smashed external window, heavily stained carpets, water issues in the bathroom, and dirty chairs, indicating it has seen better days. The location, while distant from the city center, provides a variety of dining options and access to a small supermarket. The dining experience was diverse, catering to various dietary preferences. The facilities, although not perfect, offer ample amenities for guest use.

The hotel offers spacious and tidy rooms, albeit needing some maintenance, at a standard akin to a 3-star in Australia. The service was mixed, with a helpful but inadequately skilled staff. The location, although with a buffet restaurant and a bar, is far from attractions, making it less favorable for a short stay. The dining options were varied, leaning towards Chinese cuisine, with reasonable quality. The facilities were sufficient but lacked a modern touch.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms, although showing some wear and tear, were spacious and tidy. The service, despite being a bit delayed, was provided by staff who made an effort to help, even with limited English skills. The location, while away from the main hustle of Beijing, offered a variety of dining options with a bar and buffet restaurant on-site. The dining experience was satisfactory with a good selection of Chinese and some Western cuisines. However, the distance from interesting attractions was a downside for a two-night stay on a group booking with 15 people.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were very large and clean, probably of a 3-star standard in Australia, but there were some issues like stained carpets, a broken window, and a leaking shower. The service was unprofessional, but they did promptly fix the problem. The location had restaurants and a small supermarket, but it was far away from anything interesting. The dining choices were more than enough, but the overall experience was only adequate. The hotel had some positive aspects like a bar and a buffet restaurant area downstairs, but I felt there wasn't much to do in the surrounding area.

The hotel tries hard to provide a good experience, but there are some drawbacks. The rooms need refurbishment and have a lingering smoke smell disguised by air fresheners. The service, although well-intentioned, can be slow at times. The location is convenient with diverse dining options but can get chaotic. The dining choices are varied, catering to different preferences.
