Second time staying, Hotel location is very near the Tiananmen Square, and its perfect for autumn in Beijing. Rooms are spacious, its a little old, but we are not too fuzzy, breakfast was acceptable but for something that you would go crazy over. Four restaurants are available within the hotel varying from Chinese, seafood hotpot, Japanese and German cuisines. There's a good collection of jade ornaments and art pieces to buy if you have deep pockets. There are many places within the hotel where you could take some awesome photos and also hotel has professional photographers available. We extended our stay for 2 more days and definitely will choose to stay here again. Staffs are very friendly especially the ladies who were at the lobby foyer are cafes, i hope the hotel management recognises their excellent services.

The location is great, inner city area, and super safe, but bear in mind it is a very old hotel.

Nice hotel in the middle of Peking. We received an upgrade and it was a great experience. Many hairspray everywhere though.

The hotel and room was up to standard. The pool itself was clean and ok if 4 or at most 5ft pool works for you. But the dressing room was way below standard even for a HS locker room. They don't provide towels, just a small hand towel and no sauna.

The hotel was very nice. The facilities were a bit outdated but it was still very quaint and very close to all the interesting places to see. While there was a bit of humidity in the room, it was still comfortable. The service was excellent. All the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The aunties were also very kind and friendly. We will come again next time we’re in Beijing.

The hotel is easy to access, with spacious and standard rooms. There is nothing particularly special about this hotel, but it’s a good option for a business trip due to its convenient location. Thankyou

The room was surprisingly large, more like a suite. Plenty of restaurants in the hotel, all with great food. The lobby also has a coffee shop where you can catch up with friends. The size of the room and the amenities were really a pleasant surprise. The hotel is within walking distance from Tianamenn square the palace. Plenty to see around the area. Lovely location with also lots of food offerings. Highly recommended.
