Xuan Wu Men

Had to tinker a little with finding a hotel, as different platforms have different addresses. Since the last comment, the hotel seems to have been repainted in a different color and also caught renovation: 1st-2nd floor closed, breakfast provided by the establishment nearby. The staff are friendly, communicated mainly through an interpreter, as English is hardly understood :) The room itself is compact, ours was overlooking the Huthongs. There are several shopping malls, Walmart, coffee shops near the hotel. Very pretty and entourage coffee shop diagonally from the hotel towards the Hutongs. Near the hotel there is also pedestrian street Lulichan , which passes to Dashilan

Hanting hotels accept foreigners and provide a comfortable, basic room at a reasonable price. They vary from place to place, so always check the room before you commit yourself to a night. I agree however, with other reviews about the smoking issue. How nice it would be to see some monitoring of this habit to minimize the harmful second hand smoke! It seems that smokers receive preferential treatment in these hotels.

This a very nice hotel but of course the rooms are bit too small for 02 persons.The rooms are very very clean, good comfortable beds with TV and mini Bar, 02 bottles of free mineral water per day with tea/coffee making machine, lovely bathrooms and really the bathrooms are big and you will find all what you need in the bathrooms. New towels. The Hotel lobby lacks more chairs as there are only a few chairs in the lobby. The hotel is located just 1 mnts walk to the Metro station. Reception is efficient and courteous. They serve a very godo Breakfast Buffet with western and Chinese food. its a very good Buffet with many varieties of food and the staff is very friendly althoug a handful can understand English! Certainly recommended for anyone visiting Beijing and book this hotel through a travel agent to get a very reasonable rate.
