We stayed in this hotel for 3 days. Staff aren't that friendly and don't speak good English. It's a good thing we have a Chinese friend who's fluent in Fok Yien. But still, they're very hard to talk to with! :p The rooms are okay. The beds are comfortable. The cleaning service is good! There's wifi in the lobby. It's... More

I got a taxi (shark) from the airport and got to the hotel at 6:00 in the morning, after the receptionist forgot about my pick up transfer.. The nice guy from the bar gave me some tea and told me how to get around the city (friendly staff).. the majestic Forbidden City is very close, walking distance, close to the... More

This was the cheapest hotel I could find in Beijing within short walking distance from Forbidden City and Tianam Square. Great location!!! For 2 nights at $30/night it was a good value. However, my room was as cheap as it gets: - my bad & mattress felt like sleeping in the concrete floor - there was no window in the... More

Location: It's a 20 minutes walk from Tiananmen East station. According to Google maps it was nearby. But I got cranky cos i was carrying a heavy backpack. haha! Facilities: They gave me twin sharing room instead of the double room i wanted with no extra charge. They did try to sell another room with a little upgrade amount but... More

Next to the east gate of the forbidden city the hotel provides basic hotel accomodation. The room was clean with ensuite bathroom for 20 dollar. Service was a little bit crumpy, but we rented nice bikes from them. Beijing's main shopping area and a nice Muslim hot pot restaurant (worth the price) are nearby. Also two nice night markets are...

Stayed at the Forbidden City Hostel in May for 2 nights. The room was OK for what we paid (less than £30 per night) twin beds & a shower. The room didn't have an external window, but this wasn't an issue. The AC was excellent. The location is great, right on the door step for most of the attractions in... More

For the price I was not expecting much. But I do expect at least clean and dry. The room was small and very dated with no external window. The room had damp problems which had led to the wall paper and skirting boards to rot in various places. The bedding was very old and tired looking and I was a... More
