Pros: The staff are very nice and helpful.

Pros: The facilities were nice.

Cons: The room could have been cleaned a little more in detail especially in the bathroom. But it was clean enough.

Pros: The Hotel is in a very good area and next to the subway. It has everything you need. A cafe, restaurants tea house and so on. Though it is very expensive. One Coffee and a sandwich for 120 Yuan is definetly to much.

Cons: The "non-smoking" room was smelling strongly like cigarette smoke.

Pros: A great location, very convenient to get around.

Cons: The update of the room. The room smells bad.

Pros: Amazing hotel, very good location

Pros: It was pretty basic but did the job fine! Clean rooms and the beds are comfortable. Subway station at the door so location is pretty good! Didn’t eat in the hotel.

Cons: There wasn’t a lounge area in the lobby - only a stiff cafe of sorts. Also very busy when the theatre is on.

Pros: Clean. Comfortable. Nice patio. Close to the beach and restaurant.

Cons: Manager who was staying in “reception” and sleeping in the middle of livingroom

Pros: The location is good.

Cons: Service not oriented to the customer. Room was to hot and there was no AC.

Pros: Great hotel, very comfortable beds good hot showers and very clean. Staff spoke English so no problem with communication and staff helpful ordering taxis for us. Location is good with a subway stop right outside the hotel. Would definitely recommend.

Pros: Good location for my needs - easy access for the airport, worker's stadium and Tianamen

Pros: Good cleaning staff

Pros: The staff is exceptional The location is excellent

Cons: It is in an alley. In a Hutong. Interesting but inconvenient

Pros: The staff was very patient and helpful in giving directions, arranging tours and with translation. They went out of their way to make me comfortable

Cons: I arrived at check in but had to wait another 1 hr for room to be ready. When i walked in the room was still not clean. Floor was dirty, dirty glass on nightstand, bathroom not clean. Instead of being able to rest after a long journey, had to wait for cleaning staff to get done. But when she left, the toilet was still not clean. Room was for 4 persons but one bed was smaller than the other so only comfortably fit 3 not 4. And we only had 3 pillows nit 4. Same with towels. No closet or at least a wall mount bar to hang clothes. Only 5 hangers provided and no place to put except in bathroom towel rack. No chair to sit so forced to sit up on bed . No regulation regarding noise . There were two groups next to us yelling and screaming until past 2am and then started the noise again at 6am . Maybe it was the hostel side because it was many voices. There should be a “curfew” of some kind and enforced. Also, westerners are accustomed to flushing toilet paper. They don’t like the smell that comes out from the trash and twice we had to call staff to unplug toilet which was embarrassing for my family. The staff insisted not to throw paper in toilet. I suggest they leave a plunger in each room. only thing that made up for the negative was the staffs generosity, helpfulness and friendliness.

Pros: The room was splendid and the staff was super friendly, I really liked the convenience of booking my Great Wall tour directly at the reception.

Cons: Nothing to say

Pros: Fantastic staff, lovely room, very comfortable and super trips out to the wall! The staff could not do enough for you and the free cakes were a great and unexpected treat! The hotel was a few minutes walk from the subway making it easier to go out in the heat. Would definitely stay here again!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: I liked the location! Very near to the Subway station. Also, the staff were really kind, polite and helpful! Enjoyed my stay :)

Pros: helful people and they are able to speak english :)

Pros: very friendly and helpful staff, very good location and super delicious breakfast :) in Beijing I would only stay here

Pros: The location was convenient for walking and exploring. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was very good and arrived quickly.

Cons: The ad said there was an airport shuttle- there was not. As the location was far from the airport that was a big factor in choosing this hotel. The staff at the information desk at the Beijing airport tried repeatedly to call the hotel for clarification but no one ever answered. There was a subway station right around th corner from the hotel but that was never mentioned as being the easiest & most economical way to get from the airport to the hotel.The location is private - once you find it. I paid two different taxis after a subway ride & neither could find the hotel. I had the address written in Chinese & no one could direct me to it. I spent literally hours walking around trying to find it. My room was on the first floor facing an alley & a brick wall - not a problem but my window would not completely close & someone from the outside could have easily opened it wide enough to climb in .When I approached the front desk about it they could not get the window to close either and assured me my location was safe- no one would bother me. That is not reassuring for a woman traveling alone.

Pros: The staff was extremely helpfull. Especially Cherry who went out of her way to help us with our traintickets. But the other members of the staff, Amy, Philly, Joy and Cheng did a great job too. Rooms are clean, breakfast is nice.

Cons: The hallways look a bit rundown.

Pros: The friendly and helpful staff, the dumpling party and the great location.Took just a few minutes to walk to small shops and good restaurants, as well as the Metrostation.

Cons: No comment.

Pros: Very kind and helpful staff. Nice breakfast.

Cons: Room could need a little refurbishment.

Pros: The rooms were decent and warm .the bath area was good .

Cons: The Lobby and reception area was not good for the money paid!!!

Pros: + located near to dongzhimen station (subway, airport-express, multiple bus services - e.g. to great wall) + many local restaurants around hotel + room and bathroom very spacious + staff very helpful

Cons: - in our room noise from the street quite loud

Pros: The hotel is not that huge hotel but the rooms are quite big - of course it depends which room you book. The breakfast was very nice with fresh fruits, both Western and Asian food. The coffee was good since there was a JURA coffee machine so you could make your espresso. Otherwise, if you just want to have a coffee there the same coffee cost 38 RMB which is quite expensive. Coffee making opportunity is provided in the room but if you want cream that is not provided. There is a GYM and quite nice. Very good that you just take the Airport Express and get off at the final station which is close to the hotel so no taxi need and the ride only cost 25 RMB there. Very convenient. From this station you can go by metro, by bus everywhere and also take the line 3 where you can change to the train which takes you to the great wall (train schedule is not that often so you should little organize if you do not want to wait like 1-1,5 hour to the next train).

Cons: As usually in CN firstly we had to change the room. It was smelling from cigarette and also no AC (the temperature was like 27,5 C in the room in the afternoon). So we have god a bigger room where the temperature was better since the size and also that it had a view to the court so not much sun. Therefore this part of the hotel is also much more quiet. The hotel is located between 2 metro station and yes, it is not just at the next corner, you do need to walk around 10 min. If you like CN food this hotel is just middle of the food street but since I do not like so much for westerns it is not attractive. Then you need to walk again to get to the first shopping mall where u find fast restaurants and western ones.

Pros: The breakfast was good even we where missing cheese; but we did survive. The rooms are very big, and also the bathroom. Friendly staff. Perfect location.

Cons: It's a little strange that so a big international hotel have so few staff that just talk a little English, 95% doesn't speak any english at all. Anyway everyone is very friendly. The don't clean very well, I think they never have cleaned under the beds and tables..

Pros: Nice, clean and comfortable rooms with nice style. Breakfast choices also good for western taste. Good play to stay a couple of days to enjoy Peking.

Pros: Great location. Clean comfortable rooms. Polite staff.

Pros: Hotel was very nice, we had a room in the 7th floor. Famous restaurant Street near by

Pros: Location is near to food street. Centre of all attraction..

Cons: The Aircon in the room is not cold during the night. The staff had to bring a portable air cooler to my room.

Pros: Nicely decorated, comfy room with a spacious bathroom. Good breakfast and very helpful staff.

Cons: Hotel is located on a very busy intersection with a pretty grim view.

Pros: My business room was large and spacious. There was a hot and cold water dispenser and a kettle. The location was a 5 minute walk from my contact point.

Cons: The hotel staff do not speak enough english to do their job.( I had no time to learn mandarin prior to my trip). They could not tell me where a street location was, 5 mins walk away from the hotel, even given a map in chinese. They awoke me on day 2 to demand I pay more for my room despite it being pre-booked for 7 days. The reception staff had no idea who Booking.com are.The staff were most unhelpful and unfriendly. This hotel does not cater to individual lady business travellers at all well. They do not mark all items in the room with prices, so it is presumed that the tea, for example is free. They then charge an extortionate price for it on check out. If you want to enjoy the fab city of Beijing, or a stressfree stay, look elsewhere.

Pros: location is strategic very near to subway

Cons: bed is hard

Pros: Location

Cons: Breakfast and noise from street

Pros: The room size was good, nice bathrooms.

Cons: The bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Room did not feel that clean and often tea cups were not washed and were left in the room dirty.

Pros: close to Dongzhimen subway station from where you can take the subway to all parts of the city, but it is also the start point of the Airport Express line which brings you in 20 minutes from the city to terminal 3 or 2 of the airport. Besides, the rooms are really spacious.

Cons: bed was somewhat hard.

Pros: terrible service! payment required in advance! none of the staff does not speak in English "what 4 stars? Chinese is Chinese!

Pros: hotel is very good - much better rooms than you would think from the ourside -close to the centre of town 15 rmb (3$) by taxi. Beakfast very good.

Pros: Fantastic stay with the most friendly staff. Quite basic but amazing value for money! The location is incredible - right in the heart of the hutongs with lots of bars & restaurants in walking distance!

Pros: Typical and cute Chinese architecture, friendly staff, good location on a traditional Hutong neighborhood.

Cons: Compromised communication (even though everyone would try really hard to help us and made everything in their power to understand us and reply)

Pros: Friendly hotel staff. Great room. Hotel is 10-mins away (walk) to Line 2 Gulou Dajie Station and Beijing's Drum/Bell Towers. It is also a few minutes away (via Didi or Taxi) from Deshengmen Arrow Tower and Bus Stop (Bus 877 is bound to Great Wall Badaling and Bus 879 is bound to Ming Tombs.

Cons: It is a bit hard to communicate if you cannot speak Mandarin.

Pros: They accept credit card! The place is much better than shown on pictures! I was a little afraid because it seemed an old place, but it was actually really nice! Our room was huge and although it didn't have window it was very cozy and warm! The bed was big and comfy. The shower was hot and powerful. The staff didn't speak English but they were very kind and helpful. The courtyard is nice and the architecture looks really Chinese, so it's fun to stay there! The neighborhood is a traditional hutong, which also gives a real Chinese feeling. You can go on foot to the Luogu Alley, to the Bell Tower and the Drum Tower. The subway is walking distance and you can also find plenty of restaurants and shops nearby.

Cons: There is no window at the room although it has curtains! It would be great to have a kettle at the room since the hot drinking water was far from the room.

Pros: Living in the Hutong was great. Just like the pictures.

Cons: There was no internet at all during my 4 days stay. Shower is right next to the toilet...but very common in China. It makes everything wet. The girl at the desk did not know English but we got by with translation apps.

Pros: Te hotel was good. Reasonable price.

Cons: Little far for the Main Street.

Pros: Good deal for the price and location.

Pros: Great location, helpful staff.

Cons: Toilet and shower are mixed

Pros: In the heart of the Hutong, numerous restaurants within walking distance. Great courtyard to relax in. Nearest metro is Guloudajie station line 2, exit G, from there its a 15 min. walk to hotel.
