Fun stay
This was a Hutong Hotel to experience old Beijing living. It was fun! We enjoyed meeting other people too in the common area.(tip: better to use Baidu maps, than Google maps when traveling in Beijing)

A taste of traditional Beijing
A great place to stay in a fantastic area of Beijing. In a traditional hutong close to the Drum Tower and an easy walk to the nearest Subway station. There are lots of little activities dotted around the communal area - calligraphy, games, traditional costumes and musical instruments. Staff are friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

True China experience
This hotel is very small and hard to find but it's like a gem. If you want to experience true China way of living known for centuries this is a place for you. This hotel is located in a 300 hundred years old hutong that is now remodeled and have all the needed futures to be comfortable, yet still have the character. The rooms are small but charming and you can enjoy a beautiful courtyard filled with old Chinese instruments. Try to write Chinese letters and have a nice tea Chinese style.

Amazing experience
As a young woman traveling alone, this hotel experience was great and I felt very safe. The staff was very nice and accommodating. It is in a Hutong and very close to some great sites. My room was clean and it had a great old school China feel to it. The only thing I would change is the bed, it was not the softest but that was how most the beds were in my china travels. If/when I go back to China I will make sure to stay at this hotel again.

Cheap hotel
Can't choose anything nice in the room or the nearby area as it was really not a good option for us. The room facility is poor and it's located far away from the streets. The only thing good in the hotel is probably the price (and maybe the public area if you'd like to chill at the lobby). Ok.. the coffee machine which offers free coffee is perhaps the best thing we had in our stay.

Awsome
Mysigt hotell med mycket hjälpsam personal. Detta hotellet ligger mitt bland hutongerna och är ett perfekt ställe att bo om man vill upptäcka det "riktiga" Peking.

Cute hotel in a great area with some challenges
The Beijing has a lot of good things going for it - right in the middle of the hutongs in a successful blend between modern and old. Staff is very friendly and it is a quiet oasis from the lively street outside. However - all sinks are installed without waterlocks which gives the room a rather strong smell of sewage. Fill it up with water to prevent some of it or buy incense as some did. I wish the hotel management would fix this, making the hotel improve significantly. My second issue is the international breakfast which was definitely sub par. Since this hotel caters to foreigners, I would recommend them to improve the breakfast dish and add a little bit more flair and style to make it a more appetizing meal.

Perfect stay in the houtong.
This is a little hotel in the houtong area in Beijing. It is NOT a fancy area. It is where the people live and go about there everyday lives. It is very interesting and easy to walk around. There is a very lively night street to eat and mingle with the crowds. The rooms at the hotel are clean but not luxurious. There is ac and English TV. Breakfast is simple but filling and tasty. The staff is lovely and always wants to help. They will teach you Chinese calligraphy and how to play ancient Chinese instruments. I would highly recommend this hotel if you want to get to know the people and culture of China.

Charmerende hotel med god beliggenhed
Vi boede på Old Beijing Square i to omgange under vores ophold i Kina, og det var en fin oplevelse. Hotellet ligger i en af de gamle hutonger tæt på Tromme- og Klokketårnet, og vi er glade for at have valgt det i stedet for et nyt hotel. Under vores første ophold opgraderede vi til et større værelse, da de mindste vitterligt er meget små, og vi vil anbefale andre at bruge de ekstra 200 yuan pr. overnatning. Personalet er meget venligt og servicemindet og taler udmærket engelsk. Morgenmaden er forholdsvis simpel, men man bliver mæt, og det er vel hovedsagen. Eneste virkelige anke er, at der er meget lydt, så man desværre har "glæde" af snorkende naboer.

Smiling service
A nice experience however it could do with a little more attention to detail.
The ambiance was lovely, the service was excellent.
However, beds lacked comfort, could do with more pillows, and the rooms are small. It is nice for a night or two but for longer stays i would reccommend elsewhere.

unique..old charm.staff going the extra mile.
Lychee and Martin were invaluable to me. Helped me with vegetarian food from the kitchen and did not charge for them. They won't accept a tip at the end either. Helped me with my luggage. I really loved this place with its old charm and offerings of seasonal fruit. The only downside is the common areas were very cold. As soon as you arrive the hotel card should be offered to guest. I got lost the first time out . 9

Nice hotel in scenic area
Friendly English speaking staff, clean rooms, hotel situated in one of the most scenic areas -the hutongs- of Beijing, a winner! Breakfast might feel a bit basic but with so much cheap and tasty food all around shouldn't reall be a problem.

Traditional Chinese Courtyard Inn
The staff was very accommodating and place looked clean & orderly and nicely decorated with traditional musical theme and objets d'art. Stayed in a king bedroom with dim overhead light and barely sufficient space to move around the bed. Otherwise, the room had all the amenities including compimentary bottled water and herbal tea packages with phone, kettle, TV and multiple toiletries in the well-lit and well-appointed ensuite shower-bathroom. Close to street food take-outs and small family restaurants. Of special mention is Mr.Shi's Dumplings which tho' pricier than average gives good value for tourists looking for a clean place to eat with a decent menu offering.

Great atmosphere
Lovely old traditional hotel in the middle of the Dongcheng District hutongs. Very good service but make sure you book a room with an ensuite as the descriptions can be a bit misleading. Very helpful staff and a great atmosphere

Traditional experience
The hotel was really traditional and very enjoyable. But the sewer line had some issues that made the room smell a little. Other than that it was very good experience
