I stayed in this hotel quite a few times and never got disappointed. Staff are friendly and helpful. rooms are always spacious and clean. Highly recommended If you stay in this hotel, make sure try the Chinese restaurant on the 3rd floor serving traditional Beijing food. Excellent food at very reasonable price and I believe their Peking Duck taste better than most of those real famous Peking duck restaurants that I tried. My only suggestions are that please improve your coffee and do not steam the bacon at the breakfast buffet.

“Very good selection away from the central areas. Have a knowledge of basic Chinese!”

It is a very good hotel; however the problem that does not permit me to 5* rating is that almost nobody from the hotel personnel speaks any other language than Chinese!

It is a very good hotel; however the problem that does not permit me to 5* rating is that almost nobody from the hotel personnel speaks any other language than Chinese! We visit the bar twice and it was extremely difficult to communicate for our order. We had to show to the barman the bottles of the spirits we wanted. We ordered dry martini cocktail and he served us Martini Bianco!!! Also, the hotel is away from any central / shopping area of the city. The breakfast offered was quite good, both western and Chinese style, as well as the dinners.

“The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly......!”

Overall, this is a nice hotel and well located in downtown Beijing. Numerous eateries and can easily get a bike or taxi right outside. The rooms? Very nice and no complaints save one. The air-conditioner like most China hotels only cools to 22 degrees! During the Summer, that just don't cut it!!! O… more

Overall, this is a nice hotel and well located in downtown Beijing. Numerous eateries and can easily get a bike or taxi right outside. The rooms? Very nice and no complaints save one. The air-conditioner like most China hotels only cools to 22 degrees! During the Summer, that just don't cut it!!! Only speaking to the manager got me a room that went down to 20.5 which just made it bearable for me to sleep. First night was just too hot. Seems many Chinese hotels lock the thermostat at 22, even though you tell it to go lower, it won't. My only complaint. Beds are very nice and room is well appointed. First room had a shower/tub.....man, what a mess taking a shower with the floor getting soaking wet.....and I'm careful too! Second room had a walk-in shower in addition to the tub, so that was fabulous. All in all, I was well taken care of. Hey, even though there is no price on it, don't use the shower/bath package or you'll be charged 45 RMB!!!! There is a Starbucks about a 1/4 mile down the road inside a large office building and again, numerous eateries. Hotel restaurants as usual are expensive and nice looking, but not very tasty. Breakfast Buffet is quite large though and has good assortment. Lot's of construction going on locally, so be careful. All in all, I would stay at this hotel again but would make sure I get assigned to a room that the AC can get below 22 degrees Celsius.
