Hotels in Beijing have prepared well to host visitors here for the APEC meeting, fine-tuning their professional services and listing special offers. For hotels in other cities in China, the event and its impact are also an inspiration for them to further tap into the MICE industry - referring to meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions.

The Ritz-Carlton Beijing on Financial Street has upgraded the interior of its Club Lounge with authentic Chinese cultural elements to attract foreign guests during the meeting.

The lounge has been designed to look like an ancient study, and the reception desk is a wooden study table under a pavilion decorated with bamboo leaves, implying the humility of the Chinese scholar. Chinese calligraphy works complete the Chinese-style package.
