The multi-million dollar art collection also adds a touch of beauty and culture that is unparalleled. Guest rooms include 38 suites in the main hotel tower and the Waldorf Hutong Villa, three Hutong studios and a room housed in two villas with private entrances located in a garden courtyard. Waldorf Astoria Beijing is comprised of two magnificent buildings with varying styles. The main tower is an elegant bronze building which will transform its color as it ages. The surrounding Hutong Villas bear the elements of ancient Imperial China, providing a breathtaking scene to behold.

From arrival to departure, guests are not only embraced by the striking design, but also welcomed by True Waldorf Service. This service initiative assigns a personal concierge, acting as a primary contact, to every guest ensuring that each request is fulfilled.
