Shichahai Shadow Art Boutique Hotel

Location is excellent. Hotel was super helpful with information before our arrival and very understanding and kind when our plans changed. I will stay here next time and highly recommend.

The Schichahai Shadow Art Performance Hotel was the perfect start to our Trip in China. The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Jerry who helped us with purchasing train Tickets to our next destination. The Shadow Art Performance by Master Mao was also very interesting and a must See! The Location of the Hotel is great too. The Beihai Bei Subway Station is near and you can reach the famous Peking Sights with the Subway very convenient. If you Explore the districts near you get a good Insight of the life of some local people too.

We stayed here for 4 days to enjoy Beijing. The hotel is located in one of the Hutongs, the old part of the town. It is close to the forbidden city (with taxi or bike). The shadow art performances are very nice and interesting, they perform 3 or 4 times per week, so not every evening. The rooms are very comfortable, but my special blessings go out to the hotel staff Longlong, Tang Tang, Hui Hui, Xuan Xuan, Wen Wen, and Erjie. They were magnificent in making our stay perfect. At every time we got more service than could have expected. They were being always enthusiastic and diligent in their work. I would for sure recommend you staying here if you go to Beijing. I would prefer this place over any anonymous big top hotel.
