We Paid /night

Including room rate, taxes and mandatory resort fees

What does ""We Paid"" mean?

Forbes Travel Guide performs independent, incognito inspections of all hotels we rate. This is what we paid when we stayed at this hotel.

Rates can vary widely by room type and season. "We Paid" is intended to give a general sense of price, but you might find considerably different rates for your trip.

When we book, we aim for the optimum season for the destination, but we avoid holidays and major public events, when prices are highest. We generally book a room at one category up from the most basic.

We take advantage of promotional rates, when possible. That means the rate you see above might have included other benefits, such as spa or meal credits.

VERIFIED LUXURY

Learn How We Inspect

We are the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels, restaurants, spas and ocean cruise ships.

Here are five things to know about us:

1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate, evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum of two nights.

2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through our objective inspection process.

3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the same experience as a typical guest.

4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks — how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.

5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

Our Inspector's Highlights

The first Rosewood Sense in the city, the Beijing spa set out to be uncompromising in the quality of the treatments that it provides, sourcing excellent local and international brands.
For the ultimate in pampering, book yourself into one of Sense’s five exclusive spa suites and feel the cares of the world melt away. These spacious overnight suites — another first for the hotel brand — come equipped with Gharieni treatment beds that can be converted into water spa tables with LED bars used for color therapy.
Once you have finished your treatment, make a trip to the juice bar, where you can find refreshing new juices daily. It’s the perfect way to hydrate yourself before heading out.
Surrounded by greenery that lines its walls, the pool space has the power to transport you to the tropics with its temperature-controlled environment and enough foliage to create a small jungle.

Things to Know

The Beijing spa is committed to providing the best possible local and international products for each treatment. Ba Yan Ka La is a prime example, a certified organic Chinese company that uses ingredients prepared according to the Chinese Lunar calendar.
Located within the spa itself, the exclusive spa suites offer a luxurious retreat, plus you are granted ease of access to the other spa facilities and amenities from your sixth-floor accommodations.

The Treatments

Our top pick for the ladies would be the Germaine De Capuccini Deluxe Saffron Massage, which utilizes the anti-oxidizing properties of saffron to refresh your skin while at the same time leaving you smelling heavenly.
For the gentlemen, the Coal Energy treatment aims to rejuvenate the more masculine yang energy, preparing you to face whatever Beijing has to throw at you.
The Sense of Beginning menu offers an array of treatments for the budding spa-goer (ages 12 and up). The teen facial, for example, addresses the needs of skin experiencing hormonal changes.

The Facilities

The fitness center is outfitted with a full complement of treadmills, exercise bikes and resistance machines all supplied by Technogym. Next door is the yoga studio, which offers daily classes or the opportunity to engage in your own practice.
The pool is a real gem, with a soaring glass roof that allows for maximum natural light while soft candle-lit flames encircle the border at night.
A series of private cabanas and a spacious Jacuzzi further enhance the experience, drawing the mind away from the internal and external noise.
