Best Hotel Bars in Beijing #1: Equis – Four Seasons Hotel

Four Seasons Hotel has been around for a while but it wasn’t famous for its bar (at least here in Beijing) until recently.

It’s been a little bit over a year since they have opened this posh, luxurious bar.

The place is not only pretty from the inside and out, but also has the best parties you can attend.

If you’re looking for a quiet place to have a relaxed Friday night drink after having to deal with work and meetings, this may not be the right place for you.

Four Seasons managed to hype up the place so much so that we can assure you that you’ll meet lots of beautiful models there.

Some of them work there as PRs promoting the place with their looks, and some of them just like to go there for some fun after a long week.

During the Victoria’s Secret Show that was held in Shanghai, a few of the angels flew over to Beijing to discover the city and its nightlife and they ended up partying at Equis bar.

Address – 48 Liangmaqiao Rd, SanYuan Qiao, Chaoyang Qu, Beijing

Ohhh…. This place knows how to make you drink, dance and party all night long.

They have live music, good cocktails and not only that, but the atmosphere of the place is very lively.

You can meet people from all four corners of the world. But I guess the same goes to almost any part of Beijing.

Anyway, this bar is definitely something you should try out. Best on Friday or Saturday nights when you want to party. But if you’re tired and want to have a quiet evening, you can give it a go during the week. We highly recommend a visit.

A new addition to Beijing’s hotel bars scene is based at Chao with its Living Room bar.

The name says it all. The feeling is private and it’s best for having a bottle of wine with your date or taking a quiet evening after a long stressful day.

Plus, they also offer live music with pretty decent bands on weekends. Based right in the heart of Sanlitun, this is conveniently located in the hub of Beijing’s hectic shopping area, yet tucked away enough to feel the privacy.

Address – 4 Workers’ Stadium East Rd, Chaoyang Qu, Beijing

Our dear, Mei bar! We love this place.

Everyone who has ever been to Beijing and has been to Mei bar will fall in love with it from the first visit.

The place is spacious with a good smoking area, good live band.

Also, lots of people go there to let their hair down with some live music. If you’re going there, prepare your dancing shoes and get ready to get a little loose on their nice cocktails.

People go there for a party; it’s very rare for the place to be quiet and empty. What’s more, they offer a Ladies Night. Ladies night is the time to go for cheaper prices and our students can sometimes be seen down here also!

There it is, we’ve listed the top 5 best bars in Beijing for the Hotel category. But believe us, there are so many more places that you could fall in love with here in Beijing.

If you come to Beijing you should visit Atmosphere bar at China World Hotel. The bar is a bit overpriced.

Most noteworthy, however, is its great view. If it’s not smoggy, that is… Recently Beijing started winning its war on pollution but unfortunately, there are still days where the view will not leave you overwhelmed.
