Beijing Dongcheng District Hotels

My family and I drove to Beijing, and the first hotel we stayed at wasn't great. So, the night before, we came to check out this hotel. The front desk staff were very diligent and showed us the room types. We were very satisfied and immediately booked two rooms, deciding to move in the next day. The next afternoon, we went to the front desk, originally thinking we might have to wait a bit to check in. However, a male staff member at the front desk was very flexible; he upgraded us to a better room, and we were able to move our luggage in immediately. The check-in process was quick and efficient, and they even gave our two kids souvenir fridge magnets, which they loved. Our whole group decided that whenever we come to Beijing in the future, we'll stay here. The rooms are much more spacious than other hotels, the bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and the vanity is large, which is very convenient for ladies to do their makeup. The hotel is located right on Qianmen Street, a quiet spot in a bustling area. The entrance is very clean and spacious. There's also a laundry room with a paid service (2 washes, 2 dries), which is very convenient for changing clothes.

Apart from the renovation which we were told beforehand, the room we had was dark (probably because it was a windowless room), humid, aircon wasn’t strong but they provided a fan. Could smell urine even with the toilet seat covered, toilet door was closed, to a point that i was awaken by the foul smell. Had to spray perfume to have it barely covered. Ventilation was super bad. Cons aside, service was good, fridge in room had free drinks. Would recommend to book a window room if you had to even though friend that stayed in the window room said it was bad too. There’s a mall few minutes walk away which was a plus. Good view on the reception floor too.

This guesthouse, tucked away in a hutong, is the former residence of Edgar Snow and perfectly captures the old Beijing hutong charm. I stayed at Beijing Zhong An Hotel for three days, and my overall experience was excellent. The hotel staff were warm and attentive; one of the service guys even helped me carry my luggage to the room. During my stay, I saw many foreign guests, which created a great atmosphere. The breakfast, especially, was a highlight. It was a Western and Chinese buffet with a rich variety of authentic dishes, catering to both Chinese breakfast preferences and Western light meals. The hotel's location is also superb, close to Beijing Railway Station. There's a small alleyway from the hutong that leads you to the hotel in about a hundred meters, and it's also very near Tiananmen Square, making transportation incredibly convenient. Overall, it's great value for money and highly recommended.

This hotel truly exceeded my expectations! Both the lobby and the outdoor courtyard are outstanding. It features a charming outdoor courtyard with a great atmosphere, complete with a brick wall perfect for photos that truly captures Beijing's character: a prominent 'Beijing' sign, traditional sand swallow kite decorations, and a fun 'Princess, get rich!' banner. It's a fantastic spot for pictures. The courtyard also has casual tables and chairs, perfect for resting after a long day of sightseeing. The greenery adds a touch of life, and there are photo opportunities everywhere. It's an ideal spot for anyone visiting Beijing and looking for great photo ops.

Good location, close to the metro to travel around. But also close Forbidden City via DiDi if that's the preference. Breakfast was really good, with multiple options, many of which were great of us as westerners. Room was small but comfortable, clean and suited our needs. Restaurants nearby as well as larger shopping malls within walking distance. Appreciated our stay here!

I stayed at Holiday Inn Express for 4 nights and had a wonderful experience. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable, allowing for a great night's sleep every day. The complimentary breakfast had a nice variety of options and was a great way to start the morning. The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Excellent value for money—I would definitely stay here again! And thank you for the special birthday gift I really appreciate it 😊

The hotel's location is right in the city center, very close to Metro Lines 3 and 7, making it incredibly convenient to get to all the main attractions. The front desk staff were very enthusiastic and recommended local specialty snacks and supermarkets nearby. There were free cold drinks in the lobby, and room service was prompt and thorough. Before check-in, customer service even asked for our arrival time and turned on the air conditioning in the room in advance – so many thoughtful details! It was a very satisfying stay, definitely full marks!

The location is good, but you either have to order in or take a cab to a location with more food options. The stay is extremely helpful and kind. There are two laundry machines and one dryer so take that into consideration as it can take a while for them to free up. The rooms were as described with only average cleanliness. Overall, we had a comfortable stay with zero problems. The shop next to the entrance charges tourist prices, so beware.

My spouse and I specifically came to Beijing to visit some attractions, and we stayed at this hotel. The young lady at the front desk provided excellent service. Since we're older, we had trouble connecting to the TV casting and Wi-Fi. She patiently helped us connect to the Wi-Fi, and the staff thoughtfully adjusted the TV casting and air conditioning for us. We enjoy taking strolls downstairs, and the hotel is conveniently located near many famous attractions, saving us from long commutes. After sightseeing, it's very convenient to return to the hotel to rest. The convenience stores downstairs are well-stocked, making daily shopping hassle-free. The room's cleanliness was meticulously done; there was no dust accumulation on the windowsills or in the corners. The bathroom had a wet and dry separation, and opening the window provided good ventilation, keeping the room free of stuffiness. The room was spacious, allowing us to move around comfortably, and drinking water was replenished daily. The young lady also proactively recommended slow-paced sightseeing routes suitable for seniors and showed us how to use the kettle and where the extra pillows were. Any small issues we brought up were immediately resolved. The service was thoughtful and attentive. This hotel offers great value for money. It's hassle-free and comfortable for seniors visiting Beijing. Highly recommended!

For my trip to Beijing, I specifically chose Beiping Courtyard and stayed in a tatami room. The overall experience exceeded my expectations and was incredibly heartwarming. The courtyard is tucked away in a hutong, offering a quiet escape from the bustling city, exuding the charm of old Beijing. I was lucky to visit in May when the roses were in bloom, which really enhanced the atmosphere. The room was clean and cozy, and the tatami provided a relaxing and comfortable stay. The facilities were complete, and the attention to detail was impressive. The staff were all very friendly and easygoing, providing thoughtful yet unobtrusive service, making me feel as comfortable as if I were staying at a friend's house. The food at the hotel was authentic and delicious, made with quality ingredients. The overall slow pace was very therapeutic, and I had a wonderfully comfortable stay. I'll definitely come back next time I'm in Beijing!
