"Advertised as a private room but was actually a dorm (same story reported by other travelers). Sheets instead of curtains. Told off for talking at 11pm. Noisy repairs underway from 7am. Floors never swept, tables sticky. Gave the property 3 days notice I would be leaving early but they still refused even a partial refund for the remaining nights, leaving me hundreds of dollars out of pocket. Absolute money grubbing. Stay away."

Top Ancient Observatory Hotel Reviews

Zhongan Hotel Beijing

8/10 Good

"Really great room, staff were really helpful and got in contact with me when I left something in the room. The only down side is there is no lift in the building. But they do offer to take your bags to the room for you"

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"

Crowne Plaza Beijing Chaoyang U-Town by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"The front desk staff and the doorman are very helpful. Nice hotel, big rooms, in convenient location. Not everyone at front desk speaks English. Four bottled waters are provided each day. The water pressure of the shower faucet is too weak, we reported the problem to the front desk but the issue was never fixed."

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

"Well maintained property. Staff were very accommodating. We arrived after a long flight around 8am. The reception was so helpful in providing us with a room by 10:30. 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."

Peace Hotel Beijing

10/10 Excellent

"Very centralized in an area walkable to shops, food & importantly the forbidden city. Eric the hotel staff was so helpful to direct us to great shopping for jade & local food spots. Also to order room service when we arrived late. He spoke great English & really took the time to help us out on each occasion."
