Clean room, beautiful decorations, convenient location. Metro station within walking distance. The breakfast served was okay, I don't like the hot chocolate. The hotel wifi is good, I can access the wifi from my room on the second floor. Would definitely stay here again.

My son and I loved staying in this very friendly and charming hotel. It is in a central location so good for sight seeing, but more than that a wonderful hutong experience as we watched the locals go about their day. The chair outside the door was my favourite place to do this with the lovely staff popping in and... More

Most members of hotel staff are English speaking. The hotel arranges for train tickets if needed and possible. This is our first visit to China so having access to friendly staff in English proved very helpful. We will not hesitate to stay at this hotel if we will be here again. This is a rather small hotel which tends to... More

We loved our stay here. We were two girls travelling together for our first time in China and this place was our favorite by far. The staff are amazing!!! Special thanks to the gorgeous Apple who was so smiley and friendly and super helpful everyday. She booked a great wall tour for us and organised our train tickets for Shanghai.... More

This small hotel has a lot of charm and it... More

We stayed there 4 nights in twin room, nicely furnitured, with ensuite bathroom. The staff is helpful and friendly and generally speaks English. The location is great, in the heart of Beijing hutongs, where you can find real life (as well as taste non-tourist Chinese cuisine). The hotel is easy to find if you enter the Lishi Hutong from Chaoyangmen... More

Went there for couple of days, cheap rooms, really clean. The staff is really nice, a real good stop because it's also well situated, close to chaoyangmen station. The place is also really good to see, really traditional, situated in narrow street called hutong in chinese. Don't hesitated if you come around !! Hadrien L.
