I always find it difficult to review a top 5-star hotel. To get right to the point - this is an expensive hotel and as a guest, I expect to get the great service and overall experience that I pay for. I was initially quite sceptical about this hotel as I am not a fan of very large hotels. However,... More

The hotel was absolutely beautiful. It is a 5 star hotel. Service was excellent. The hotel had easy access to shopping areas. The market, which is a wholesale shop where you can make bargains with the Chinese workers and get lots of cool stuff is within walking distance. There is also a high end shopping mall conveniently located near the... More

I have been lucky enough to stay at the China World Hotel every 4-6 months on business and it is my favourite hotel anywhere in the world, cant wait to go back in 6 weeks! My first trip was August 2011 for 8 days. My husband and I upgraded to the Horizon Club rooms and were treated like absolute royalty... More

Just got home from 4 days at China World Hotel. The rooms were very quiet and easy to live in. While not as sumptuously luxurious as the Westin a short distance away, I prefer the location of the China World, which was a short 10 minute walk to the Silk Market. There's also a luxury shopping mall downstairs plus some... More

The common areas have a lovely "Chinese" feel but the rooms are terribly disappointing. I had a very large room which was nice but the rooms look like something from Moscow in the 1970s. Lilgh switches must be 30 years old and the room just felt like a 3 star Chinese hotel not a "Shangri-la". I checked out of this... More

China World, part of the Shangra-La chain, is a very good business hotel. Good location and excellent service. The hotel is a bit tired, but it is very comfortable. More

I agree with others that this is the best hotel I have stayed in anywhere, and I have travelled to most parts of the world. I have stayed here at least twice a year for about five years, and I always enjoy coming back. Service is superb, rooms extremely comfortable, and Horizon Club a great place if you qualify. The...

I've stayed in many great hotels in my long life but the China World Hotel topped them all. It was paradise. The staff are amazingly (but unobtrusively) attentive and make guests feel very pampered and special. For example, they remember how you take your coffee. The entire hotel is gorgeous. Our room had every facility we could have wanted. (It's... More

We knew that we had chosen well from the moment we entered into the luxurious world of China World Shangri La as we were greeted by smiling, courteous staff who made our long trip very worthwhile. The lobby is spectacular, rich and oppulent with some staff in chinese dress with comfortable lounging areas where traditional teas can be enjoyed with... More
