China World Summit Wing: Levels 64-80 high-altitude sanctuary in China World Tower with Grill 79, level-78 pool, and CHI Spa

Perched on levels 64 to 80 atop the 330-metre China World Tower in the heart of Beijing’s Central Business District (CBD) in Chaoyang, China (overlooking the Forbidden City and Beijing skyline), China World Summit Wing, Beijing (Shangri-La) opened as an extraordinary high-altitude luxury sanctuary. As one of the highest luxury hotels in the world, the 278-room urban retreat offers floor-to-ceiling panoramic views across the Chinese capital. Featuring the acclaimed fine dining restaurant Grill 79 on level 79, the refined Cantonese dining room Red Chamber, an indoor heated infinity swimming pool on level 78 looking over the city, the highest bar in Beijing Atmosphere on level 80, and the serene CHI The Spa on level 77, this property is Beijing’s premier sky-high hotel.

Arrival introduces travelers to unvarnished high-altitude cosmopolitan grandeur: personal hosts greet guests at the ground-level private lobby before whisking them via high-speed elevator to the soaring level-64 reception with chilled Chinese mountain tea, cold scented towels, and breathtaking 360-degree skyline views. Day-one logistics focus on coordinating bespoke Beijing cultural, shopping, and gastronomic pursuits: exploring the premier luxury shopping mall of China World Mall (directly beneath the hotel), visiting the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, and Temple of Heaven (15 minutes away), swimming laps in the level-78 indoor infinity pool above the clouds, indulging in traditional Chinese wellness rituals at CHI The Spa on level 77, enjoying live jazz and cocktails on level 80 at Atmosphere, and reserving dinner at Grill 79.

Tower living balances vibrant capital city exploration with serene high-altitude wellness: the CHI The Spa features private treatment suites, vitality pool, steam rooms, saunas, the level-78 pool, and therapies utilizing organic Chinese herbs, essential oils, and traditional reflexology. Dining is a celebrated international summit: European grill gastronomy at Grill 79 (featuring prime wagyu beef, Maine lobster, caviar, and Grand Crus), authentic Cantonese dim sum and roast meats at Red Chamber, Japanese specialties at Nadaman, and cocktails at Atmosphere.

Accommodations comprise 278 rooms and luxury sky suites designed in classic Shangri-La warm woods and Chinese silks ranging from 55 to 296 square metres. Each residence features floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Forbidden City or CBD skyline, plush king beds with custom linens, and marble bathrooms with deep soaking bathtubs, embedded mirror TVs, and L’Occitane amenities.

Skyline connoisseurs, business leaders, and luxury travelers seeking high-altitude views, Grill 79 dining, and level-78 pool relaxation in Beijing should book China World Summit Wing without hesitation. Travelers seeking low-rise traditional hutong courtyard inns should look elsewhere.
