LiveFortuna Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Breakfast choices were great. Very clean throughout and the pool and gym were awesome!"

Regent Beijing by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"All are very good"

East Sacred Hotel-near Beijing Tiananmen Square,the Forbidden City,Wangfujing Street-Newly renovated hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This property is hidden down an alley near a residential neighborhood and steps from lively Wangfungin pedestrian street offering high end shopping, street entertainment and metro, with Tiananmen Square & Forbidden City easy walking distance. Location is superb. There are massive hotel brands nearby but this felt cozy. Fang Fang, the consistently smiling host, and front desk work hard to accommodate non Chinese speaking guests and can assist with any plans including Great Wall and Tiananmen Square access last minute. Breakfast leaned towards authentic chinese fare and delicious. Cats in courtyard and free tea and coffee make this a memorable stay."

New World Beijing Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bed was too firm and pillows were too soft."

Holiday Inn Express Beijing Downtown by IHG

10/10 Excellent

Very clean and provide a lot of amenities that you couldn't expect in same hotel in other parts of the world. Breakfast was sumptuous with a mix of local and international options. Free self service Laundry was a plus for everyone. Finally, the location of the hotel is great as it is well connected within a 10 minutes of walking to Line 5 metro station."
