What Travellers Like

  • The hotel is made up of a dozen buildings, including apartments and government offices as well as the hotel; the outside buildings forming a wall around the interior gardens and central buildings. It seems like hardly anyone (including the concierge) speaks much English. Many of the rooms have been recently remodeled, but some still the have weird communist hotel fixtures that flourished in Russia and China up through the 1980s (although the overstuffed armchairs with lace antimacassers that appear in photos of Mao and Zhou have been replaced). The magnificent Olympic size indoor pool is part of a sports center that has recently been refurbished.. Read review

  • The plus points are that the room was quiet, they have HBO and BBC World, the AC worked (just), the Beijing branch of TGI Friday's is in the grounds (and good) and we got a very good exhange rate at the currency desk. Taxis are very cheap of course, but it takes about 45 mins to get into the centre, and there isn't much of interest in the locallity.. Read review

  • The staff wre very friendly and eager to please, their English isnt great but hows your Mandarin? The rooms are very clean - all the beds are hard in China but we did not have a problem with this. The Bar at TGI Fridays is good and cheap, the two Chinese lads behind the Bar practising their Tom Cruise impressions by tossing plastic practice bottles around were a hoot. Taxis around the City are fine & all on the meter-but do get a small translation card from the reception which will tell the Driver were your going & more importantly how to get back. Breakfast was an excellent mix of Chinese & English you will be stuck for choice and its all first class.. Read review

  • The rooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable (though my wife found the beds a little hard), the staff were friendly and spoke enough English to deal with any problems we had.. Read review
