Where to stay for CMEF Autumn (China International Medical Equipment Fair) 2026: the closest hotels to Capital International Convention & Exhibition Center (Shunyi) are in Shunyi / Airport area and Wangjing, with Sanlitun / Chaoyang CBD a short ride away. The fair runs 21 Oct to 24 Oct 2026 and rooms near the venue sell out first, so book a free-cancellation rate early. Pay Weekly lets you split your hotel over up to 16 weeks.
CMEF Autumn (China Medical Equipment Fair) is one of Asia's largest medical device and healthcare trade fairs, showcasing imaging, diagnostics, surgical equipment, medical IT, rehabilitation and hospital supplies to a global audience of manufacturers, distributors, hospital buyers and healthcare professionals. The autumn edition is held in Beijing at the Capital International Convention & Exhibition Center in the Shunyi district, in the north-east of the city near the older China International Exhibition Center grounds. For a hotel-booking traveller, Shunyi's location matters: it sits well north of central Beijing but close to Beijing Capital International Airport, so airport-area and Shunyi hotels offer the shortest commute to the halls, while central Beijing stays trade a longer journey for more dining and sightseeing. Beijing has abundant hotels, but a major fair concentrates demand around Shunyi. Booking early secures a convenient base close to the venue before rooms near the exhibition centre fill.

Pay Weekly: common questions
Do I pay any interest?
No. There is no interest and no extra charge. Your plan total is exactly the hotel price shown when you book. The only fee we ever charge is a processing fee on cash refunds (see 'What fees apply?').
How many payments can I make?
Depending on how far away your trip is, you can split your booking into between 2 and 16 weekly payments. The exact schedule is shown before you book.
What happens after I pay my deposit?
Your hotel is booked and confirmed immediately. You receive your booking confirmation and your full payment schedule by email, and the remaining payments are charged automatically each week.
How are the weekly payments taken?
Automatically. After your first payment, each weekly payment is charged to your saved card, and we send you a reminder 2 days before every charge. In a few countries where automatic card charges are not allowed, we email you a secure payment link each week instead. You can switch to a different card at any time.
Can I pay early?
Yes. Sign in to your Event Escapes account at any time and pay off your remaining balance in one payment, whenever it suits you. There is never a fee for paying early.
What happens if I miss a payment?
We retry your card automatically and email you a secure payment link so you can pay another way, plus a final notice with one link to clear the remaining balance. If the plan still cannot be completed, we cancel the room before its free-cancellation deadline and everything you have paid goes into your Event Escapes Wallet in full. You never lose the money you have paid. You can turn that credit into a cash refund at any time (the processing fee applies).

Getting there
From Beijing Capital International Airport (PEK)
- Beijing Capital International Airport is in the Shunyi area, relatively close to the exhibition centre; allow a short taxi or car transfer of around 20–40 minutes depending on traffic.
- Metered taxis and the Didi ride-hailing app serve the airport; carry the venue name and hotel address in Chinese.
- The Capital Airport Express metro links the airport toward the city for those staying centrally.
- Beijing Daxing (PKX) is the city's other major airport but is far to the south and less convenient for Shunyi.
By metro and rail
- Beijing's extensive metro reaches the northern districts; check the nearest line and station to the exhibition centre and combine with a short taxi.
- High-speed trains serve Beijing's major stations from across China; transfer to metro or taxi for Shunyi.
- Traffic between central Beijing and Shunyi can be heavy, so allow generous time on fair mornings.
- Ride-hailing is often the simplest door-to-door option from a central hotel to the halls.
Getting around during CMEF Autumn (China International Medical Equipment Fair)
Metro and public transport
- The Beijing Subway is vast, cheap and English-signed, though the exhibition centre in Shunyi may require a taxi for the final leg.
- Use a transit QR app or a rechargeable Yikatong card for the metro.
- From central hotels, factor in transfers and travel time to reach the northern venue.
- Metro avoids the worst road congestion but check the closest station to the halls before you set out.
Taxis, ride-hailing and shuttles
- Didi is the dominant ride-hailing app; metered taxis are widely available but drivers seldom speak English.
- Save your hotel and the venue address in Chinese characters to show drivers.
- Fairs sometimes arrange shuttle buses between official hotels and the exhibition centre; check the organiser's information.
- Allow extra time for taxis during peak fair hours when Shunyi and airport-area roads get busy.
Visa & entry
Visa-free and transit options
- China has broadened visa-free entry for many nationalities and offers extended visa-free transit (currently up to 240 hours) through eligible ports including Beijing for qualifying travellers.
- Some passport holders can now enter for short stays without a visa under recent unilateral schemes; rules and durations change often.
- Transit visa-free entry generally requires an onward ticket to a third country.
Advance visa (most business visitors)
- Many business travellers still need a Chinese visa (typically an M business visa) obtained in advance from a Chinese embassy or visa centre.
- Apply well ahead of CMEF, as appointment slots tighten before major fairs.
- An invitation letter from the fair or a Chinese partner is usually required for a business visa.
Entry rules change; confirm current requirements with the China embassy or official immigration site before booking travel.
First time at CMEF Autumn (China International Medical Equipment Fair)?
- Set up mobile payment (Alipay or WeChat Pay with an international card) before arrival, as cash and foreign cards are widely unaccepted.
- Install a ride-hailing and maps app and save your hotel and venue addresses in Chinese characters.
- The venue is in Shunyi, well north of the centre, so weigh a venue-close hotel against a central one with a longer commute.
- Confirm the exact autumn edition dates and your priority product sectors before booking rooms.
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- Staying near the airport or in Shunyi minimises daily travel time to the halls.
- Arrange a VPN before arrival if you rely on services blocked in mainland China.
- Build in generous travel time on fair mornings, as Shunyi and airport-area roads can be congested.
- Carry plenty of business cards and use a translation app for suppliers with limited English.
