Jen Beijing by Shangri-La Reviews

As a photographer, location and views are everything - and JEN Hotel delivers on both. Waking up to breathtaking scenery is a treat, but what truly elevates the experience is the exceptional hospitality. The staff is incredibly helpful and friendly, making every interaction seamless and pleasant. The food? On another level - every meal feels like an experience in itself. And for those who prioritize fitness, the gym is not just there for show; it’s fully functional and well equipped. A golden hotel in every sense - so good, you won’t even need to consider alternatives.

This is a very good hotel with lots to offer and many, many ammenities. They also gave me sparkling wine and snacks upon check in. There is a mall next to/connected to the hotel which is very convenient. The hotel also has an absolutely amazing bar call Beersmith. It's my favourite in Beijing with live music almost every night and they make their own beer and ciders. My friend wasn't allowed to check in because her passport was at the embassy. They refused even when she had photos of her passport and visa pages. I understand this is government policy but the people in front of us were also refused. They told us this is a common problem so I think they should try to find some solutions that doesn't involve losing money and customers. I am thankful that she got her money back and I know they were trying to help us the best they can but just make sure you meet the requirements before you spend money and try to check in.
