Grand Millennium Hotel

Grand Millennium Beijing (北京千禧大酒店) was honestly the best choice I made before the trip. We booked a non-smoking deluxe twin room via Agoda for about SGD 270 for two nights, which was much more affordable compared to walk-in rates. The hotel is conveniently located about 200 metres from 金台夕照 (Jintai Xizhao) Station, making it easy to get around. We arrived at the hotel around 11am after a red-eye flight, and although check-in was not available yet, the staff allowed us to store our luggage so we could explore the city hassle-free. When we returned in the evening, our room was already prepared and waiting for us. The room was spacious, featuring a bathtub, and had a separate wet and dry toilet layout. Toiletries were provided, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable—perfect after a long day of travel. We did not opt for the breakfast option as we wanted to sleep in, but there are several malls nearby with plenty of food and shopping choices. The hotel is surrounded by business buildings, giving off a CBD vibe, making it a great option for business travellers too.

Hotel deco feels older given the fact they have been there for many years. However it is well maintained and preserved the oriental vibes. Room is clean and spacious. Was given a high level floor which has an excellent city view look. Could see the sun rise in the morning and sunset view was great. Near subway and there is a shopping mall just connected to this hotel. Lots of food options in the mall.

Room nice, clean, comfortable. The F and B staff a bit clueless. Several will be standing around at breakfast doing little other than sneaking behind a pillar looking at their phones instead of helping the few overworked waiters/waitresses clearing and cleaning the tables. If you can, check that no Royal Caribbean cruise ships are scheduled to depart Beijing during your stay, as they use the hotel to front load the ship prior to departure, so the breakfast buffet is a nightmare with literally hundreds of embarking cruisers pigging out.
