Opened in 2009, Fairmont Beijing is located on East Chang'an Avenue in Beijing, across the street from the First Embassy District, near Beijing's Central Business District, which is home to about 80% of the world's top 500 companies, within walking distance to Silk Commercial Plaza, Guomao Business District, Wangfujing, Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square and other Beijing landmarks only 10 minutes' drive, and to the Capital International Airport 40 minutes' drive.
Today, Fairmont remains a strong competitor as the luxury brand of AccorHotels Group, the hegemon of Europe's hotel industry. In 2015, Fairmont Beijing was named the Best Business Hotel in Beijing by Travel & Leisure. In 2016, it was rated as the selected business hotel of the year by New Travel; In 2017, it was selected as a four-star hotel by Forbes Travel Guide.
Fairmont Reignwood has 222 well-appointed guest rooms and suites, each ranging in size from 45 square meters to 211 square meters, equipped with executive writing desks, international telephone lines, Nespresso coffee machines (for rooms on the 5th and 6th floors), spa-style rain showers, LCD TVs in the bathrooms, heated floors and Le Labo bath amenities. Among them, the hotel's presidential suite is also the exclusive residence of stars and dignitaries such as Placido Domingo to Beijing, with an area of 211 square meters, located on the 23rd floor, with high-end configurations such as jacuzzi and bar.
The hotel's Fairmont Gold series of rooms and suites are designed for business guests, providing private check-in, located on the 17th ~ 23rd floors. Guests staying in these rooms and suites can enjoy Executive Lounge privileges including a full breakfast, English or Chinese afternoon tea, a selection of creative dim sum and evening desserts, as well as dining reservations, transportation and translation services.
Compared with the Four Seasons Hotel, The Ritz-Carlton on Financial Street and other conference halls with more than a dozen or twenty rooms, the four conference rooms of Fairmont Reignwood Hotel appear to be few, and the largest multi-function hall can only accommodate about 300 people. However, there is still something to be sure about, as all meeting rooms are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and bespoke catering, as well as thoughtfully designed to give guests a more local feel inspired by traditional Beijing houses. In addition, on the hotel's official website, the size and capacity table of the meeting room are also intimately attached, and the same meeting room is estimated to have different capacity according to the different arrangement of tables and chairs, similar to the St. Regis Hotel.
In June 2017, Fairmont Beijing signed an agreement with Bruyar, the No. 1 air purifier brand in CNPP100, to equip all guest rooms and public areas with Blueair Pro series air purifiers for the first time in China. Beijing has a long history of smog, and this partnership will help greatly enhance the guest experience.
The food and beverage offerings at Fairmont Reignwood Hotel are among the best in Beijing. The restaurant has a resounding reputation as one of the four largest steakhouses in Beijing, and is ranked fourth on the list of the best steakhouses/steakhouses in Beijing in CNPP100. Blade Steakhouse is the first restaurant in Beijing to serve pure-blooded grass-fed Angus beef, which is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid, and high-quality protein and vitamins, making it ideal for body-conscious guests. The hotel's Willow Stream Spa is also worth a visit, located on the hotel's flyover, where you can relax and overlook the city. The fitness centre is also a must, offering a heated swimming pool, sauna, massage and yoga options.
