"Right in the heart of Beijing’s vibrant financial district, The Ritz-Carlton blends ultra-modern luxury with Feng Shui principles for gorgeous high-tech rooms, glamorous dining and swim-in movies."

In the heart of Beijing, one of China’s oldest cities is Financial Street: the country’s Wall Street equivalent in the middle of a nouveau, vibrant district. Right in the thick of it, an ultra-modern high rise made of glass and chrome blends contemporary sensibilities with the ancient philosophy of Feng Shui to create The Ritz-Carlton, Beijing, Financial Street. Its prime location makes this hotel popular with the corporate crowd, while its amenities and proximity to nearby attractions make it well-suited to those travelling for pleasure.

Spacious and contemporary rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, dark woods and silken wallpaper with accents of red and gold. Marble bathrooms have Asprey toiletries and separate showers and tubs. Set the mood (whichever mood that might be) with electronic panels that control light and temperature and automatic drapes for both blackout and sheer curtains. It’s all very customizable, and very much appreciated if your room gets subjected to direct sunlight. Rooms have kettles with tea assortments, and complimentary bottled water is restocked daily. Upgrade to a Club Level room for complimentary shuttle service within the Financial Street area, morning coffee or tea, pressing service and printing services in the business centre.

On-site dining options include Greenfish, which offers buffets featuring a mix of Chinese and Western fare. Qi serves upscale Cantonese cuisine in a glamorous dining room, and Cépe has fantastic Italian and an impressive wine list with hundreds of options, many vintage. While you’re at it, head to the Crystal Bar and Lounge for pre or post-dinner cocktails, as well as themed afternoon teas.

Despite its corporate vibe, the hotel welcomes families and caters to younger guests with child-size bathrobes, extensive kids menus and their trademark Ritz Kids programs.

With family in tow (or on solo expeditions), the hotel is an ideal launching pad for those seeking to explore. Tiananmen Square, Forbidden City, and the Temple of Confucius are all about a fifteen-minute cab ride away, as is an ancient stargazing observatory. The Great Wall is a fair bit further, but still very doable at about an hour’s drive.

If you’d rather stay put, the high-end Seasons Shopping Mall is less than a five-minute walk away. Within the hotel, you’ll find a movement studio for yoga and fitness centre, and “Swim-in” movies at an indoor pool that plays black and white films on a full-wall screen. After a busy day of doing whatever your heart desires, luxuriate in the spa with a decadent caviar facial – the perfect way to unwind before tomorrow’s adventures.
