This hotel is something different. We spent 4 nights here in April 2009. The hotel is very charming, based around a pretty and realtively quiet courtyard and it is great to be able to sit outside when the sun shines, not possible in most western style hotels. Staff were mostly very friendly but some speak no English or French, including... more

We have just stayed for 5 nights in this beautiful and authentic Chinese 'hutong' hotel. It feels so far removed from standard Western hotels and is located down a small hutong so you really get to see the real Beijing way of life. This can be a bit of a shock upon arrival, but we walked back down the hutong... more

We had an absolutely lovely time at this stunningly beautiful hutong hotel. Ideally situated on the edges of the central area this hotel offered a lovely short walk into the hub. The design of this courtyard hotel is exceptional and beautifully excecuted. Set around quite a large courtyard, the rooms are delightfull and well facilitated with beautiful typical bathroom very... more

We stayed here as part of our honeymoon travels through Asia during late Dec 08. The experience didn't start well when the pre-booked car to pick us up from Beijing airport failed to show up, a call to hotel told us that they had come a day earlier than we booked and confirmed by email. So do double check a... more

My husband and I stayed at this hotel for three nights. The service was great and they let us know all the great spots to eat at and visit in Beijing. The staff was very personable and friendly and spoke very good english. The beds were nice and comfortable. The free western breakfast was extremely fresh and very good. The... more

After extensive research for somewhere that was authentic - ie, not a Four Seasons, or a Mariott or a typical 5* deluxe hotel - I finally found the Cote Cour SL with the help of Google and Trip Advisor. I loved the fact that it was down a narrow road in an old Hutong which we walked down at night... more

My girlfriend and I stayed here for 6 nights and we loved it. The staff and management were extremely friendly and helpful. We were easily able to plan a trip to the Great Wall through the hotel and it's central location made it very easy to see the various sites of Beijing. This hotel provides all the comfort and amenities... more

Cote Cour deserves all of the positive reviews it has received in newspapers, magazines and this website. This hotel exceeded our high expectations and we loved every minute of our five-night stay. We had a standard room which well designed, clean and comfortable. The pictures on the hotel’s web site will give you a good sense of the guest rooms... more

Arriving by taxi (ahead of the rest of my party) down a long, very narrow lane way, I was a bit apprehensive on what I would find on arrival. What a wonderful surprise. Staff were so welcoming (many spoke English) and the boutique hotel is a beautifully restored walled house, with well appointed rooms and bathrooms. We wanted to see... more
