My stay at Sofitel Beijing Central was a mixed experience. While the location was excellent, just a short walk from the metro and near various restaurants, the service could have been better, especially during check-in. The food offered in the restaurant left much to be desired, but the breakfast was quite impressive with a good variety of options. Overall, I appreciated the friendly staff, though communication was sometimes challenging due to their limited English skills.
