Beijing Jinjiang Fuyuan Hotel

“Far out of the centre”

Ok hotel, quite far out of the centre. We stayed here 4 nights as part of a tour of China, so no idea what the tour company paid for the hotel. Probably not too much. The room was good, large with a bath. Fridge in the room, air conditioning and a safe. There is a metro station near to the hotel, 5… more

Ok hotel, quite far out of the centre. We stayed here 4 nights as part of a tour of China, so no idea what the tour company paid for the hotel. Probably not too much. The room was good, large with a bath. Fridge in the room, air conditioning and a safe. There is a metro station near to the hotel, 5 min walk. However, you are near the end of a new line, far out of the centre. Breakfast was good, apart from the tea, which they make very weak. Take your own tea bag to breakfast. Presumably the staff didn’t speak English, again this is standard. We didn’t need to speak to reception. Lots of restaurants near to the hotel, but no English menus. Some with photos and prices, so we went there.

“Could do with work”

My husband and I started here as our first hotel during our Group Tour - The hotel is nice enough with large rooms that can seem a little dated but overall are well equipped, a few hairs on the arm chair but generally very clean. Having seen some issues with others reviewers bathrooms we were fortunate that our was clean and in good shape. We enjoyed the firmer mattress as that’s our preference anyway. The WiFi was practically non-existent in our room but luckily I have a data plan for my phone so it wasn’t much on a concern. Breakfast was nice enough, it wasn’t amazing but everything was relatively tasty and the coffee was good too, although there is only 1 machine so get there early. The hotel is very far from downtown but there is a little shop inside and there are shops around the corner as well as a mall down the road so you can make use of those areas if need be. The downside we had was that the staff didn’t speak English (not their problem) so there was a lot of use of translating apps to communicate.

“Older hotel in need of a renovation”

We stayed in that hotel as part of a group tour. The property is quite distant from downtown. This is an older property in need of a renovation. The bathrooms in particular have quite a bit of mildew and the caulking is very thick showing multiple layers and it is cracking. The room itself is fine … more

We stayed in that hotel as part of a group tour. The property is quite distant from downtown. This is an older property in need of a renovation. The bathrooms in particular have quite a bit of mildew and the caulking is very thick showing multiple layers and it is cracking. The room itself is fine with a firm mattress. The WIFI is extremely slow. Breakfast is ok for an Asian hotel. As our program was very full, we did not get a chance to use the pool or other facilities.

“Needs improvement”

The hotel is an hour out of town, commuting in for the sights was okay as upon our return we found plenty of eateries in the surrounding area and a large modern mall.

The hotel is an hour out of town, commuting in for the sights was okay as upon our return we found plenty of eateries in the surrounding area and a large modern mall. Food was very cheap in the area compared with the UK so this was a bonus. The room was reasonable and not offensive in any way, large comfortable bed and standard amenities. The main problem was breakfast, large communal tables and one coffee machine for what I would estimate to be 100 diners! There was a queue and the machine regularly stopped as it ran out of milk. I found on day two that there was another machine in the lobby, but who wants to walk out to the lobby during breakfast?! This issue really needs rectifying. The food itself was ok, not too many western options but hey, we were in China! Staff spoke little English also, but again we got by and why should I expect them to speak perfect English! They tried their best and I am grateful for this. I didn’t check it out but there was an Olympic since pool, I was put off when advised a swim cap was mandatory. Overall, average at best, if I visited again I’d head to the centre and pay a little more. (This visit was as part of a tour).
