“"Unusual Design of the Hotel"”

Hotel location was pretty good as it's near the Wanfujing shopping street. There are also lot's of eating places near to the hotel. Transportation is also good as it's very near to the public transport. I think the housekeeping should be more observant as they left my coffee cup and drinking glass without washing them. Also, they did not top my my coffee sachets before leaving the room. When I open up the window, there is a another wall which is about 60cm right infront of my room which has no view at all. Overall, it was quite a good hotel for a short vacation.

“Economy hotel in a good location”

This hotel is not a luxurious one but clean and nice enough. Its location is very good. You can walk around and visit all the historic attractions around the Forbidden City and the Hutongs.

“Excellant location”

The mains strength of this hotel is the location, you can easliy walk to Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden city & the main shopping district. A good place to base yourself from to explore Beijing. Their are a number of good & cheap local restaurants on the hotels street as well

“Good value accommodation”

Don't expect 4-5 star accommodation. The rooms were clean and comfortable although their aircon needs to have some in-room adjustment that works (in mid winter, the rooms were too warm. However, that was easily accounted for by keeping the door open on its security chain). Our Standard rooms had no outlook, basically looking at a brick wall about 2 feet beyond the window, so don't expect expansive views of Beijing from your room. That being said. The hotel couldn't be bettered for convenience to the Forbidden City and the local Metro station for getting to other places of interest around the city. The staff were helpful and spoke English quite well. Overall, I'd recommend it especially at the prices Expedia were able to offer us.
