The hotel is one of the first in Beijing. Although it is older the feel is clean and elegant. Dining is limited but there are plenty of places nearby. My only critical comment is that there was no morning take out coffee anywhere. I had to go about 2 blocks to Starbucks.

Comfortable spacious room
The location of the hotel was excellent and proximity to touristic places. Room is spacious, clean and comfortable. Minor hiccup during check-in process in the, but overall was ok. Breakfast buffet was a bit of a disappointment even though there were selection for the price. Only enjoyable food was the chocolate croissant. There is need to raise the breakfast buffet standard to an international level as a premium hotel. Would like to thank a female lobby ambassador staff for her hospitality.

This hotel is 100 years old and you can imagine when you step in how grandiose was in its prime. Today’s day probably needs a lot of touch ups to keep it up but still keeping that “old world” feeling. The room was very big and well decorated. The room had an interesting smell ( probably the wall paper and maybe the drapes should be replaced to freshen up the room)

Excellent location.
Hotel with old world charm, but badly needs a fresh coat of paint. It would’ve been grand in its hey days. Room was big. Location excellent. Cleanliness - needs improvement as room was dusty. The worse thing is, I found a cotton bud on the pillow and many stray hairs.

Historical hotel next to the forbidden city
Extraordinary hotel. I stayed in a heritage room, with a bedroom, a lounge, a bathroom, a shower room and a toilet. The bed was extremely comfortable. The building is historical and has lots of character. Above all, staff is exceptional. Ksenia and Sky speak good English and took a very good care of me booking taxis checking opening hours and providing recommendations. Extremely good service.

The facilities are well managed. Many staffs have been making efforts. But if you are looking for a true accessible room, this hotel may not be the best choice. Simple because the hotel was built prior to the consideration of the disabled population, the availability of accessible room is very slim.

Good hotel with lots of character & helpful staff
The hotel is in a fantastic location. The staff are great, especially the concierge who are help to make the trip as smooth as possible... The only challenge is that the room (a heritage room in this case) was so warm. Seemed the air con wasn't working and only blowing forced air. Although the room had a balcony the door couldn't be opened to let cool air in. However, on the last day of the stay the air quality was so bad you wouldn't want the door open. Great place, just need to get the air con sorted......
