St. Regis Beijing (Beijing Guoji Julebu Fandian)
No hotel in Beijing can rival the on-call personalized butler service of the St. Regis, which boasts the highest staff to guest ratio in China. Almost unnerving attention is paid to your individual needs, down to what side of the bed you sleep on for turndown service, and what fruit you take from the fruit bowl. The white marble lobby, with its towering palms and afternoon tea, is the city's most elegant and the health club is world class, with a spa drawing on waters from a mile under ground. If there's a complaint, it's the smallness of the rooms, but all are beautifully appointed with traditional Chinese furniture, Beijing's deepest bathtubs, and a full range of extras. Danieli's on the second floor is one of the city's finest Italian restaurants, and the Press Club Bar, under renovation at press time, is a stylish, clubby watering hole.
