AB Concept designs glam W Bejing Chang’an Hotel

The W hotel in Beijing is located on Chang’an Avenue and is mainland China’s second W hotel. Hghly anticipated, it exudes a distinctive metropolitan vibe and focusses on cutting-edge design, fashion  and music, whilst importantly staying in keeping with the imposing grandeur of Beijing’s past.

The W Beijing Chang’an Hotel offers guests a rich medley of experiences that capture Beijing’s dynastic history, along with its international flavors. AB Concept’s principal inspiration when creating the hotel was “Tian Yuan Di Fang,” a Chinese philosophical tenet that defines heaven as round, and the earth as square. As a result, the Living Room lounge features an imperial ceiling in round and square patterns along the wall, lending a sense of regality to the space. The hotel also sports multiple hues, innovative installations, bold lighting and dynamic textures – each dramatically transitioning from one to another.

W Beijing Chang’an consists of 349 stylish and spacious guestrooms and suites that follow the hotel’s design narrative, combining modern and traditional elements, including superlative views of historic monuments and playful Ming-styled vase cushions.

For stylish events and meetings, the hotel offers nearly 1,500 square metres of versatile space, including The Great Room of 518 square metres with a ceiling height of 7 metres. The Away Spa offers a unique beehive sensation, where guests can enjoy exceptional spa experiences featuring honey-based treatments, among other rejuvenating regimens. In addition, Yen, the hotel’s Chinese restaurant, displays local history in full force, complementing Beijing’s culinary heritage.
