Hotels in Houhai Area, Beijing

The price doesn't quite match the value, but considering its downtown location and the fact that it's a traditional courtyard house (Siheyuan), I can understand it. The room was very small with tiny windows, located right above the front desk, and the stairs were very narrow. The location, however, was pretty good; nothing felt too far away. It was also a nice way to experience life in the local hutongs.

Wonderful hotel located at the heart of the hutongs, next to Nanluogoxiang hutong which is very famous for its food and night life and shops. The hotel is clean, the people are kind and helpful and they helped connect us with a driver to plan our Great Wall of China day trip. Also, they have been very kind keeping our bags after check out until our flight! Would definitely recommend.

The lady at the front desk was very welcoming, and the room was spotless. The location is excellent; the front desk staff even helped me find a parking spot. Anzhen Hospital is right across the street, and the subway station is only 100 meters away on foot. The rooms are equipped with smart devices, and the projector comes with a membership already set up. Overall, I'm very satisfied.

The room was perfect for a winter stay, with convenient heating and air conditioning. It was clean and the staff were very friendly. The location is great, very close to attractions like Gulou Street, the Drum Tower, and the Bell Tower.

Environment: The hotel's location is pretty good, close to the scenic area. There's a great ramen shop downstairs. Our largest room was quiet, but the soundproofing wasn't great. Cleanliness: It was okay; they cleaned daily. However, the suite's bathroom had an odor. The receptionist gave us an extra electricity card to use for ventilation when we went out. Service: We opened the windows every time we went out. The day we went to the Summer Palace, there was a sandstorm, and when we returned, the staff had closed the windows for us, which was very nice. Facilities: The hotel seems to be located in a low-rise alleyway; the lack of an elevator was inconvenient.

On a business trip to Beijing, I chose this hotel for its convenient location. It's within the Second Ring Road, so transportation is excellent. In springtime, Beijing's flowers are in bloom, and it was lovely to take a walk around Shichahai. There are also many great eateries nearby, like Honghua Dim Sum Bureau, Zigongyuan, and Huguosi Snacks, all just a few minutes' walk away. The room had electric curtains and a smart speaker (Xiaodu), and the cleanliness and service were both excellent.

Facilities: Clean and tidy, with a separate wet and dry area in the bathroom. Environment: Quiet surroundings, and conveniently located right next to Gulou Dajie subway station. Service: The front desk staff were very responsible and helpful. They assisted me enthusiastically when I needed help around 6 AM on May 9th. Hygene: The housekeeper on the first floor was diligent in cleaning the rooms and promptly met guests' needs. Highly recommend staying here for a great experience!

The hotel facilities are new and clean. The 24-hour self-service laundry room is very convenient. Although the hotel is located in the heart of Shichahai, it's nestled in a hutong, which keeps it away from the noisy tourist areas. If you want to experience Beijing's hutongs, I absolutely recommend this hotel. The hotel's security guard was also very enthusiastic, helping us get a taxi and directing traffic without a hitch.

This hotel in Beijing really exceeded my expectations for this business trip. For the price, it's absolutely top-tier. I'll definitely stay here again next time I visit. It's located at No. 15 Xueyuan South Road, just a 5-minute walk from the West Gate of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT), and a 10-minute shared bike ride to Xizhimen subway station. There's a Wumei supermarket and a few restaurants downstairs, which makes getting food and supplies super convenient. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the hot water was plentiful and came out quickly, and the WiFi signal was excellent, perfect for working. The soundproofing was much better than other hotels I've stayed at in the same price range; I barely heard any noise from the hallway at night. It's highly recommended for anyone visiting BUPT or exploring Shichahai. The value for money is outstanding! I'll definitely be staying here again on my next trip to Beijing.

Having traveled all over the world, this is one of the coziest, most comfortable places with the best service we've ever stayed at! Xihai has hardly any tourists, allowing us to witness the most authentic Old Beijing lifestyle by the lake. Plus, it's very close and convenient to all attractions like Shichahai. We ran into trouble getting a SIM card and didn't make it back in time to retrieve our clothes from the washing machine. To our surprise, when we returned to the hotel, the lovely lady at the front desk had already hung them out for us! Additionally, on our first day, the front desk attendant helped us carry all our luggage up to the second floor. Because we had so much, she even upgraded our room! Room 201 had an expansive view and abundant natural light. We were so comfortable we were even happy to spend an entire day just relaxing in the hotel room, soaking in the leisurely pace of Old Beijing. Ultimately, we enjoyed our stay so much that we extended it by another day, and the front desk staff helped us get a discount on the room. It’s truly one of the best hotel experiences we've had so far!
