Meeting venuesBeijing, China
Beijing's hotels serve government, state enterprise and the multinationals in the CBD, and quote each on its own terms. The political calendar matters here as nowhere else: during the annual sessions in March and major state events, security tightens and hotels near the centre may be unavailable or restricted.
How Beijing hotels quote
Per-person packages and room rates in renminbi, typically before a 15% service charge and 6% VAT. Government rates exist and corporate buyers must make hotels compete for corporate business. We fix an inclusive total and confirm fapiao issuance before hotels quote.
We fix all of that into one per-person package, in CNY, before any hotel quotes. Hotels then compete on a number that means the same thing in every offer, and the rank you see is the rank of what you would actually pay.
The National People's Congress and the CPPCC sessions in early March, and other major state events, restrict the centre. Chinese New Year in January or February and Golden Week in early October close business. Autumn is the best weather and the corporate peak. Winter is cold, dry and well priced.
Market conventions, tax treatment and event dates as understood in September 2026 from published sources; they change. Every offer in an RFPVenue contest states its own tax, service and fee basis, and that is what you compare on. New to these conventions?

Where to hold it
The hotel clusters buyers use, and what our sourcing desk would tell you about each before the brief is fixed. Name a district in the brief or let the field decide.
The multinationals' district. International business hotels with conference floors and corporate pricing.
The regulators and the state banks. Boardroom-standard hotels for meetings that need discretion.
The historic centre. Luxury hotels for dinners and leadership days near the Forbidden City.
Embassies, restaurants and design-led hotels for offsites that want an evening.
Venues buyers shortlist
A sample of established meeting hotels across Beijing's districts, with the capacity figures each hotel publishes on its own site. Not a ranking, a recommendation or a partnership: when you send a brief we invite whichever comparable hotels fit it, whether or not they are listed here.
| Hotel | District | Meeting rooms | Largest room | Theatre | Banquet | Event space | Transport |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| JW Marriott Hotel Beijing Central | Xicheng, Xuanwumenwai | 11 | Grand Ballroom | 800 | 500 | 1,861 m² | – |
| The Ritz-Carlton, Beijing | CBD, China Central Place | 9 | Grand Ballroom | 550 | 350 | 1,367 m² | – |
| The Ritz-Carlton Beijing, Financial Street | Financial Street, Xicheng | 9 | The Ritz-Carlton Ballroom | 400 | 320 | 1,745 m² | – |
Figures are each hotel's published maximum for the layout, read on the date shown below; they shrink once staging, AV and catering are in the room, and hotels change them. Confirm capacity against your brief before you rely on it. For a meeting of 20 to 120 people the largest ballroom is rarely the right room; the number of meeting rooms tells you more about breakout capacity.

Meetings in Beijing
China leadership and government-relations meetings for the multinationals headquartered here, board dinners in the centre, and training programmes for China teams in the CBD.
Most briefs are for 20 to 120 people, but the venue table above shows the ballrooms and convention hotels for several thousand, and the process is the same. Send the brief as you have it; we make it comparable.
Room, breaks, lunch, AV, bedrooms, taxes, service and cancellation terms are locked before any hotel sees the brief. Every quote means the same thing.
We invite properties that match the brief on capacity, standard and location, including any you name. A round needs at least three comparable offers to open.
Hotels see their own rank and the price to beat, never each other. Prices can only fall. You award on best value and are under no obligation if nothing fits.
The awarded total against the average of confirmed comparable offers, hashed and printable. The booking contract stays directly between you and the hotel.
