Beijing Wtown Resort

When the quaint Wuzhen-like water town, with its grey bricks and black tiles, dons its Christmas attire, winter is no longer just a monotonous white. Beautifully decorated Christmas trees and lights as dazzling as a starry river transform the scene. To experience the unique charm of a northern water town, my family and I stayed at the Gubei Star Hotel in Gubei Water Town. To my surprise, we encountered one pleasant surprise after another! 💕 1️⃣ Gubei Water Town offered free admission throughout December! 🎫 That saved us over 200 CNY for two people. 2️⃣ Free shuttle bus rides made exploring the water town a breeze. 🚌 3️⃣ Drone shows, light displays, and musical fountain shows were all free of charge. 4️⃣ We received complimentary hot spring tickets, 🛁 allowing us to enjoy a warm soak in the winter. ♨️ 📍 Gubei Star Hotel boasts an excellent location, just a five-minute walk from Riyue Island. 🏠 The hotel has over 300 rooms, possibly making it the largest hotel within the scenic area. Our room was incredibly spacious, bright, elegant, and fresh. 🛏️ The bedding was clean, tidy, soft, and comfortable. ☕️ The room even had a capsule coffee machine with two complimentary coffee capsules. 🛋️ Next to the window, there was a small side table beside the sofa, perfect for writing or holding books and coffee – very practical. 🖼️ The lobby had several elegant and comfortable seating areas. 🍛 Breakfast was absolutely fantastic with a wide variety of choices – a must-try! Check-in was quick and convenient, and the hotel staff were warm, thoughtful, and meticulous. We even received a complimentary room upgrade this time, offering views of the Yuantong Pagoda and the surrounding night scenery. We were absolutely thrilled! 🥳

Staying at the Gubei Light Hotel was truly excellent value for money. The all-in-one package made the whole experience incredibly enjoyable! The package included tickets to Gubei Water Town, the Great Wall, and the cable car, plus a hot spring experience. It saved us so much hassle and time from having to plan and buy tickets separately. We just packed our bags and started exploring! I have to specially commend the hotel's breakfast – the selection was incredibly rich, with Chinese dim sum, Western dishes, and fresh fruits and vegetables all available. The presentation was exquisite, and the quality was top-notch, giving it a very premium feel. Every morning, we ate to our heart's content. The rooms were generally clean, comfortable, and spacious, making for a very pleasant stay. However, there's one small drawback I should mention: there's quite a difference in room views. Among the several rooms our group booked, only two had decent exterior views, while the others faced inwards with rather ordinary scenery. Aside from the minor issue with the views, the hotel offers great value for money. Whether you're traveling with family or friends, it's an excellent choice for accommodation in Gubei Water Town. I would definitely consider staying here again on my next visit!

The service was impeccable, truly VIP treatment. From luggage assistance to room arrangements, everything was thoughtfully taken care of. We brought our child to see the Great Wall, experience history, and enjoy the water town culture. It was a happy trip until we left. We'll definitely come back to stay for a couple of days and experience the hot springs!

It was pretty good. The private hot spring was excellent, perfect for families with kids and elderly. Gubei Water Town in winter is a bit desolate though, but the price was right. I'd definitely come back in winter again. Overall, a very good experience.

The room was cozy and comfortable, with a perfectly balanced mattress that was neither too soft nor too hard. They also have a pool, and the staff were warm and attentive. The hotel's location is excellent, right in the heart of the ancient town, making it convenient to get anywhere.

The hotel's location is excellent, making it very convenient for getting around. A huge thank you to Manager Ma and Lobby Manager Yin! We misplaced our two-person dining card, and Manager Yin actively helped us resolve the issue, truly thinking of the customer. +🍗. Our stay was fantastic!
