Excellent buffet and one block from the pedestrian mall. Well-appointed rooms with multiple electricity options. Very clean and modern. English-speaking front desk was sufficiently easy to communicate with. The

Booked our room online and got a great deal. The hotel is huge, and its close to the Forbidden city, the Wangfujing crept/crawly food-street and Tiannamen square. The staff is helpful, and will write down everything for you in chinese if you ask. Taxis are no problem, the doorman will get you one in a jiffy. The rooms are clean,... More

Stayed at this "old school" hotel whilst on business in Beijing. I found the location to be very central and the hotel is within walking distance of the nearby shops, markets and for a bit of sightseeing, the Forbidden City. On arrival at the hotel, travellers will be greeted by a very large entrance foyer with a beautiful flowing staircase... More

When we arrived at the Prime Hotel we had already spent a week in Beijing at the top-notch The Imperial Mansion Executive Apartments Marriott, so, to be honest, we had very little expectations of the Prime. How wrong we were! The Prime Hotel might be a little older, but the room was big and very clean, the bed was very... More

This hotel is old but comfortable. Staff struggle with English. Look to your bigger brands while in beijing. Please note a 24 hour building site is next to this hotel. Might be a issue in the future. It is close to the shopping malls.

A comfortable hotel and in good area for shopping and Tiananmen Square etc. Found it unnecessarily difficult to print my boarding pass for the flight home. Lunch buffet was very good but at $20 seemed a bit steep.

We booked this hotel for its price and location, and were pleasantly surprised at how nice it turned out to be. Rooms were clean and comfortable, staff were friendly and efficient and the location is excellent. Walk out of the hotel and turn left and in 5 minutes you're in one of Beijing's major shopping districts with malls and street... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this hotel. You have to get your passports copied on arrival. The hotel therefore realised, without prompting, that it was my son's 21st birthday during the stay and we came back to our rooms to fine a beautiful cake in a presentation box on the table. A very nice touch! The hotel is in... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my 12 days at Prime Hotel Beijing. The front desk always had a serviceable English speaker available and they were quick to address any requests. They were very helpful, even when I was scammed for 600 kuai by a cab driver (not endorsed by the hotel). They helped me to understand what I could do to avoid... More

Well located and that is the only saving grace. The staff were polite but generally inflexible and incompetent. The hotel systems had little to do with hospitality and nothing at all to do with western expectations. Rigid Asian rules were paramount. For example, our friend had his wallet stolen and requested an urgent phone call home to cancel his credit... More
