Nirvana Resort Beijing

All in all I had a good stay in a very spacious room. However, I hadn't chosen the hotel myself, it was booked for me as it was the venue of an international event I was attending. Before you consider this hotel you should be aware that: - It is quite far from the airport (min 90 mins by taxi) or a central city location such as Tienanmen Sq (min 90 mins by taxi) - The free wifi is totally useless - Virtually no one speaks English On the plus side: - The breakfast buffet is big and very varied - Rooms are very spacious - Sleep quality is excellent - There are nice grounds for a walk plus a sports centre with hot springs and a spa One final thing: resist the temptation to ask for a room overlooking the pond. I was told by a colleague that the noise that the swans/ducks/geese do throughout the night makes sleeping impossible

Stayed at this resort during a conference in Beijing. The resort has multiple buildings surrounded by lotus ponds with many ducks and geese wandering around the grounds. Great place to stay if you want to get away from the bustle of the city. Lots of picturesque places around the grounds to take pictures. Several wedding parties were also staying there during my stay. The room I had was large and very comfortable. The one down side is that it is about a mile from the nearest subway station, but easy to catch a motor cycle taxi to get you there and back.
