Hotels near Chairman Mao Memorial Hall (Maozhuxi Jiniantang)

great location - near forbidden city, tian an square, chairman mao memorial hall, nation museum....just walking 25-30 minutes easy to find - just near the MRT station - beijing station 2 - zhong wen men station - walk 15 minutes will reach.... clean worker so great....she will inform us to clean room early......she cleaning room still we are in room ....she also ask and give what thing we need (mineral water, syampol and other) ....she always smile still she cleaning room (hard work)....

THe hotel is located in a great location, 10 meters away from the Chongwenmen Subway station; it's a historical monument which saw many big events happening in the past, e.g. Chairman Mao met with Indian PM Nehru in the 1960s. The Superior Twin Room is nice with big windows; however the Economy Twin Room does not have any windows, which is really uncomfortable to stay in.

At the last minute, we booked Sunworld Dynasty hotel through the Agoda website. We stayed for five nights and the service we received is on par with standards of a five star foreign-own hotels (e.g. Sheraton). Most staff could communicate in English, which was helpful. (Not a lot of locals in the city can speak/understand English so it was nice to be able to speak our first language at the end of the day). Complimentary bottles of water were provided every day. We had a fair size room with a king bed. Bathroom was also a nice size with a shower and a bathtub. Turn down service was a nice touch. Note that there is only one non-smoking floor. Gym and pool facilities were also very good.

it was really a great experience at sunworld hotel, me, my family and friends really enjoyed our 5 days stay in kuala lumpur. they have smiling, friendly and accommodating staff and the rooms are very clean but cheaper. if you want to go on shopping you can just walk around because it's just steps away to shopping areas. oh our buffet breakfast and lunch were also the best, the foods and service looks like as if you are in a 5 star hotel. we recommend our friends to stay at sunworld hotel, the best place to stay in malaysia.

Hotel style classic, beautiful, comfortable, spacious room, great location. Staff helpful and efficient. Free WiFi in the lobby. It is 250m from the trendy Wangfujing street where are the biggest malls in Beijing and 300m from the Wangfujing subway station. You can go walking to the Forbiden City, Tiananmen Square, Mausoleum, The Great Hall of the People and National Center of the Performing Arts.      Attention: In Beijing there are many street vendors and small rogue traders who charge prices far above correct. Check everything before you buy. As they only speak Chinese, a good tip is to carry a calculator and ask for they type the price before confirming purchase. This makes it harder to be tricked. In a small shop, the owner wanted to charge me 117 Yuan for a few items that cost 32 Yuan. In Wangfujing there are two lanes with numerous stalls selling Chinese food. A vendor wanted to charge me 120 Yuan for a portion that cost 10 Yuan. Avoid eating in these places because the food is bad and lack hygiene.      Very careful with taxi drivers. At the airport or at the train stations only take taxi in the taxi queue. Many dishonest people comes offer taxi in the queue. Do not accept because they use equipment adulterated and will charge at least 3 times the correct price.

We stayed here for 3 nights for Easter weekend and the hotel was a perfect base for sightseeing. Traffic is a nightmare so we took the subway everywhere and the station is right next to the hotel. The hotel is 5 star in quality, the concierge was the best concierge service I have seen in a long time. The rooms were large, clean and had everything you would expect of a luxury hotel. I will definitely stay here again next time. Although, opposite the hotel is the Legendale Hotel (very blingy and over the top but also quite interesting!), worth checking it out.

The concierge was great. The frontline staff at the check-in desk are second to none, fluent in all languages, friendly and welcoming. The room and restaurant facilities meet the 5 star rating. The breakfast was the best I had in all of China, including Shanghai. The experience exceeded all my expectations for a hilton hotel. My next stay in beijing will be here. Internet was fast and flawless which was critical to my work. This cannot be taken for granted in China. Beijing is a large city so if you are doing activities downtown, then this is the place to stay. If you are outside of the 3 ring roads, then you may need to pick a hotel more suitable to your location. Traffic around Wangfujing district can be brutal especially during rush hour.

got checked in really fast as we arrived at about 2 in the morning. the receptionist that night wasn't particularly rude but he wasn't exactly friendly either. asked him if there's any shops that serves local food for supper nearby and he just told us to order room service. the food was alright and the portion's rather huge. anyways, the hotel is within really short walking distance to the famous da dong roast duck restaurant at jin bao plaza. the food's really good. great variety and lovely atmosphere. skip quan ju de. park plaza is also rather close to the wang fu jing shopping district though i have to say there's nothing much there and its literally made for tourists. it's also about a 20 minute walk to the forbidden city. take a stroll there. it's lovely and not too stuffy on the winter. we booked a deluxe room as it stated here that it's above the 8th storey and we wanted a view. and we were given the 8th storey. they said they had no rooms left which is ummmm ... but forgoing all that, the room was above my expectations. it's a really good 4 star hotel, there's everything you need there. hair dryer, a hot tub after a day in the cold weather, tv with many channels, lots of space for your winter luggage. and most importantly, it's really clean. and the best part is, when we realized at the airport after we had checked out that i had left my ring in the room, the staff actually brought my ring over to the hotel in a sealed envelope after we called them to ask if my ring is there and if it's possible to bring it to the airport as our flight was in an hour and a half's time. it's really the best stay ever. thank you.

i loved this hotel, value for money, what you see in the pictures is well, what you would get. travelling with family with older parents. booked 1 deluxe room and 1 suite room. both rooms were spacious, new, clean, bright, comfortable. you get fresh, clean and white towels daily, laundry service good, all in all very satisfied. hotel staff are all very obliging and polite. toilets are huge, there's 2 toilets for the suite room, shower area of the suite room comes with high ceiling, good water pressure, bathtub etc. front desk was very helpful in answering our questions (eg: how to get to places, where to go to get certain things). it does live up to its 4 star rating, since most 4 star hotels in china tend to be more like a 3 star hotel. subway/metro station: dongdan station, abt 3 minutes walk. nice and quiet area. cons: menu for room service was limited, not near amenities (eg shopping centres/super markets).

my stay was two nights only, but at the time my flight landed and i meet the hotel rep at the arrival hall, i feel somethiong very different about this hotel. i believe they have the best arrangement compare with other hotels and they use a different pickup area for their hotel guesses which was not the mormal exit, is more convenience. the hotel room, service and staff was as good as other 1st class hotel in beijing. room charges expensive but i think as a business traveler, i perfer the service they provided at the airport.

I arrived after a very long fligh,rather tired,to be greeted by nice,polite and efficient young people at reception.Another kind youn man helped me with my luggage to my room.The room:big,beautiful,very comfortable bed,excellent matress,minibar well provided.Lights well sited,air condition working well.The bathroom ,complete,a la francaise,excellent.I must say that all this was a great surprise,much appreciated by Latin people like me.I was given some complementary fruit in me room,this was another good surprise.Lets us go to the dining room for breakfast:the reception girls,the young French manager?very polite and helpful.The waiters,discrete,efficient,polite.Buffet both Chinese and European ,again with the French touch of croissants,baguette,crepe and many other things.The Chinese side had a huge choice of different dishes as well,all fresh and tasty food. Back to the bedroom:I forgot to mention how generous toiletries and how nice and polite the room girls are,they manage to communicate in spite of not being fluent in English,but they do their best to please. Shops:I tried the clothes shop,top quality of very modern clothes and very nice shop attendant.Same commentaries for the shop nearest to reception,which sells of ort of Chinese beautiful things.Very polite lady working there.I did not use the currency exchange,but it is available all the time. Again reception people were nice,polite and efficient when I had to check out,both sorting out my account,dealing with my now heavy luggage and finding a proper taxi.The door man wrote the number of the taxi on a card which was given tome,just to make sure that everything goes smooth.This shows care and responsibility for the hotel guests till the very end. I would certainly like to come back,both to Beijing and to Novotel,Heping,at Jin Yu Hutong numer 3. Yours. M.Rambau.

We stayed at Beijing North Garden hotel for 3 nights at end of Oct 2011. We enjoyed our stay. The best part of the hotel is its prime location on the first block of the busiest Wanfujing street, the start of this prime tourist pedestrian shopping street which is full of big fancy departments stores, huge bookstore next door, alleys full of small stalls and food stands are just steps away. It is located in the trendy new Mall of the Orient complex where Grand Hyatt is located but at the fraction of the price. It is approx. 3 minutes walk from the WFJ subway station, across the street from 24HRS McDonalds which has a dedicated coffee counter, surrounded by hundreds of restaurants and shops and shopping malls. Each nightly casual stroll discovered even more surprises on the main street and side alleys. The front desk ladies are reserved without smile, but they warm up later and proved to be helpful. The concierge bellboy doesn’t seem to know much but front desk ladies tend to cut in fast to help out. We had a very spacious executive suite on the top 11th floor with open living room with sofa and 360 degree flat screen TV, smaller queen bed, safe, fridge and small bathroom, all seem clean and safe. The carpet is tan color, may seem old and dirty to some picky ones, but it looks clean to me upon closer exam. The executive lounge on 12th floor is no longer operational and locked up. No free breakfast and we did not bother to check. There is constantly stream of empty taxis driving pass the hotel so finding a taxi is very easy. The front door is guarded by policemen 24 hours a day. No card needed to go upstairs. Elevators are always ready and fast, very few people around. Taxi to PEK airport from hotel was easy, we reached airport at 8AM in 30 minutes in slow driving in thick fog, 80rmb plus 10rmb toll, total 90rmb. It is not a luxury hotel, 3 stars, but clean and spacious, with the best location in Beijing, very satisfied with North Garden Hotel.

The Crowne Plaza Beijing was one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in - and I've stayed in a lot! The staff were amazing - they were so helpful, great English speakers and willing to do anything for anyone. The food was great also at the Club Lounge, Room Service & the Espresso Lounge. My room was huge! Super modern and great facilities. I would reccommened this hotel to anyone visiting Beijing - particularly if it is your first visit to the city. I can't wait to go back next year and stay at the Crowne Plaza Beijing again. Thank you to all the staff who made my stay so unforgettable!!!!

This is a great Chinese boutique hotel with a good location (10 min walk to subway station). The rooms are beautiful with Chinese decorations, but the AC and the bathrooms have been modified to modern times. I stayed during winter and the heater was working perfectly. The service is impeccable. I have been in 5 star hotels in Tokyo and this hotel was even better in service than them. Perfect English speaking staff. Always friendly and always accepted requests. This is a great value for the money. I recommend the bigger rooms as their decorations seem even better. Would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

As stated in one of the reviews below, I was looking for a hotel that offered a comfortable stay, but did not have the rates of a 5 star hotel. Hotel Kapok is one of them. The location is hard to fault, just 5 minutes' walk from Wangfujing, and 5-10 minutes' walk from either Tiananmen East Station, or Wangfujing station (Tiananmen East is slightly nearer). There are also plenty of 24-hour convenience stores on the same street as the hotel, which is always a good thing. We (my boyfriend and I) stayed in a Courtyard Room for 5 nights. The room was spacious, well-designed, and the open-plan bathroom, while taking some getting used to, was huge and extremely comfortable. I realise that some people might find the beds a bit on the hard side (Asian beds) - we found it comfortable. The staff were polite and helpful; although lack of English might have been a slight barrier, they still tried their utmost to help, even helping us explain to the taxi driver our next hotel (we stayed 2 nights at another Beijing hotel, in Chaoyang area). Overall, I would recommend this hotel (take the Courtyard room!) if you're solo-ing Beijing, i.e. without a tour guide/drive, for about 2-3 nights' stay, as although the hotel is close to Tiananmen Square, Wangfujing, Forbidden City, Mao Zedong's mausoleum, etc., other attractions such as summer palace and temple of heaven are further away. Dragonfly Spa (as you read from reviews below) is indeed on the same street as the hotel, but we didn't go in as the it was too expensive. We ended up going to Bodhi (look it up on Google, one opposite Workers' Stadium, another on Liangmaqiao lu), as they had discounted prices on selected massages if you arrived before 5pm. Dragonfly and Bodhi are both recommended

This is the best hotel I stayed in Beijing. If you want to experience Chinese Culture in depth, you do not want to miss this hotel. The hotel is a heritage courtyard house of an ancient scholar back in the emperor's day (ask the luggage boy, he will tell you all about it). The layout of the rooms and garden, and the interior of the rooms and furniture are all very ancient style (not some cheap furniture), which will bring us back to the emperor's day, just like what you see in the movies. The staffs are all very friendly and polite, the receptionists and even the luggage boy. The luggage boy spend time tell us a lot about the history of this hotel, which make it more meaningful when you stayed in there. The location of the hotel is very near the City centre, in the alley way (hutong), but no big departmental store nearby. However it does give you a feel when you walk thru the hutong to the main street (quite safe in the hutong as there is a police station next to the hotel). 10 mins walk will bring you to a subway station, which will bring you to the downtown shopping area within 3 stations. Free wifi and broadband computer in the room, very handy. I will definitely stay in this hotel again if I go to Beijing as it leaves a very good impression.

The room was big and clean with all the amenities I expected. Breakfast was ok, but I have to give props to the hot pot restaurant, it was delicious and reasonably priced than outside hot pot restaurants. Location was good since it is near majors attractions but the hotel itself is located between 2 metro stops, so a 10 minutes walk to either metro entrance. Staffs were overall great, friendly and helpful, with the exception of the check in staffs of that particular night, they weren't mean or rude, just not particularly friendly or informative. I would definitely stay again though! Well worth the money and reasonably priced compared to other 4 stars hotels in the area.

The hotel isn't too bad but just not perfect. Overall rooms and services are ok. Breakfast is the pretty much the same stuff every day although there is a relative wide spread. The hotel is not inconvenient but it is not within close walking distance. Perhaps the few minutes of walking would be tolerable but in the summer heat, any minute less in the heat would be good. The nearest subway about 5 minutes away is the Cultural Center station but it requires multiple changes of lines to get to most of the attractions in Beijing. Wasn't as convenient as if you would stay near Line 1 or 2 or 4/5. Overall, the price isn't cheap too and can be considered steep. For the price, much more is expected. Hotel staff at breakfast also needs to explain more about the signing of the bill every morning for the breakfast before guest misunderstood that we may need to pay for breakfast when it's included in our package. Pool wasn't too bad with a slightly hot tub besides it. Didn't go to the gym.

While the staff deliver 5 star service the hotel's infrastructure is no longer 5 star, with the exception of the pool/gym. Ownership needs desperately to invest in a refurbishment of the rooms/halls, etc. That said, at the right price point, this hotel represents arguably the best hotel value in Beijing. Through a prepay/no refund deal available only on Agoda, my wife and I obtained a great price (excluding breakfast but including taxes for 5 nights in early Jan 2014) and, thus, enjoyed an excellent stay. Our grand deluxe room was quite comfortable and, when a few things needed fixing, the staff responded immediately and quickly resolved the issues. The lobby lounge is a very good spot for meetings over tea/coffee and the gym/pool are excellent. We did not eat in the hotel so no comment on dining. The location of the hotel is great and, for those interested, there is a subway stop less than 5 minutes walk. There are also coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants, etc., all within a very short walk of the hotel. In sum, while this property is no longer 5 star in overall quality and certainly not nearly the same quality level as the rest of the Peninsula Hotels around the world, at the right price point it is worth considering and for visits to Beijing. We will certainly consider it for our next visit.

This is a wonderful, cheap and convenient hotel. I had a great time. The location is slap bang in the middle of Beijing. The closest subway is only a few blocks away. Reception don't speak any English, but people who complain about this lack creativity and insight. Just download a translation app, and vuala you're in business. The people here were very nice and smiled every time I passed by. Do your research on the places you want to visit because unfortunately the English level is very low.

Pros: cheap and near to tourist attractions. A bus stop outside the hotel takes you to the temple of heaven and other attractions, less than 15 to half an hour bus ride. Very convenient. The hotel staff are friendly, managed to book the entry ticket through the staff for the forbidden city. The room is clean and the cleaner change the bed sheet daily, upon request. Cons: if someone smoke in the room or along the corridor, you won't be able to stay in the room. The cigarettes smell will make you faint. I had to use mask on one night as the smell is terrible. You will need a ear plug if you want to sleep soundly. You get to hear conversation when someone pass by the corridor, especially in middle of the night. If you are a light sleeper , think twice. The mattress is extremely hard and you will get backache easily. Best way, request for extra blanket to layover. Overall, as a solo traveller, I will book this hotel again.

EChoose this hotel cause it is new and in the best location in Beijing. Staff are nice and helpful. Facilities are all in top grade. There is room to improve. Like better communication on check in, reception should tell us the room to room line is disable between 22:00 - 08:00. Adding a small rubbish bin in toilet room. One more tissue box in living room. A small table next to sofa for placing tea and food...etc. Anyway, the overall experience in this hotel is great and comfortable. Would like to visit again

Took a bit of a tussle even with the baidu map to reach this place, but once you find it, you'll figure directions easily - great location close by Jingshan Park (literally 200m away), the forbidden palace and other closeby attractions. Location is not short of eateries and supermarkets, and is accessible with buses and a 15 minute walk to 2 different subway stations. Although customer service wasn't eloquent in English, they tried their best and was very helpful at check-in and when we had questions about directions and getting to the railway station. Room was pleasant and wifi works well too - nice place for a quick rest for a day of exploring. I'd definitely recommend staying here and would book another stay if I visit beijing again.

I used to work in one of the only 4 diamond hotels in my state in the United States. So i know what goes into a hotel and am usually very picky. This hotel was amazing. It was clean, they were polite, the staff spoke english. This was the highest class and overall best hotel i have ever stayed in. The pools were remarkable. Inside the changing rooms near the pool are a massive hot tub which could fit 30, a cold bath which could fit 15, and a suana and steam room. All seperated by sex. (My partner had her own in her changing room.) The restaraunt had a buffett for i think it was 88 yuan which was a deal. Great location. I live in beijing as a foreigner so this was just a get away night to have fun on the weekend. I will definitly be returning.

we booked 3 rooms for a total of 8 consecutive nights. the hotel is situated in a great location in between two train lines. the hotel capitalizes that mainly westerners use the hotel and charges everything at ridiculous prices. after a few nights we desperately needed to wash our clothes, but to wash our clothes with the hotel services would have easily costs over (to wash a tie for example). when we asked reception if there was a coin laundry nearby they recommended we use the hotel and only reluctantly gave us directions when we told them that we didn't want to use their services. breakfast is overpriced, do not go there if you don't have it included. for five coffees, two breakfast cereals (cornflakes), one bowl of fruit and toast came to 498rmb!!!! ridiculously expensive. avoid buying anything from the hotel. i paid 44rmb for a beer in the lobby the first night but bought my own beers for 6rmb and drank them there the following nights. housekeeping were good, the only mild complaint would be that my single bed to be against the wall and the carpet underneath was really dirty. however, whenever we needed anything (like a needle to fix my button or an iron) it was delivered promptly. they also shine your shoes for free. didn't use the facilities because we were too busy (leaving early, returning late), but the gym is very cheap looking so don't book this hotel just for that feature. apart from the ridiculous prices, the hotel is great. just walk out reception, turn right and walk for 500m and there is a great shopping district complete with markets (if you're looking for the markets, it's on the same side as the hotel and it's in a building with a mcdonalds - the markets are awesome). i had a great time in beijing and the hotel really is in a prime spot do carry out everything you need. if they just lowered their prices they would be fantastic.

Booked the Jade Garden on line through Agoda sight unseen. We arrived in Beijing on 20 Jan 2010 with a temperature of minus 15degrees celcius and a very cold wind. Arrived at the Jade Garden to be greeted by very helpfull staff and checked-in in a matter of minutes.Central heating was welcome relief to the extreme cold outside temperature.Our luggage was delivered to our room befor us and when entering our room ...The Executive deluxe suite... were greeted by a staff member who asked if we need anything fust to simply call them.Complementary fruit and chocklates.The room was very spacious and very clean.Very very large bathroom with a very big bathtub that was later to be a saviour for us.First to test the bed for comfort and can tell you was extremly comfortable with very good quality linnen.Most hotels I have stayed in in China the beds are very hard and in some cases the floor is better.But here simply luxury. Now to comnnect my lap top to the internet.Would not work so called recption and within 10minutes all was set up and was on line straight away. The central heating was a little to hot for us so a staff member came to our room and adjusted to a comfortable 21degrees in a few minutes. Only called reception once more and that was for a pair of nail clippers.They arrived in 5minutes. Everything that was in the room was of 5+star standard.Plenty of storage space and all very secure and safe. The meals were buffet style with a great choice of Asian or Western food or you could choose from the menu. On one morning we were being picked up at 6.00am to travel 3hours to Mount Simatai to mclimb the Great Wall and I mean climb.So asked the staff the evening prior if we could have an early breakfast at 5.00am.No problems they told us to come to the dining room when ready and we would be looked after. Went to the dining hall at 5.00am and waiting for were two staff members that came in early to attend to for our breakfast.We were the only persons there apart fo

We love this hotel. This is a big hotel. A local 5 star hotel with spacios room, big size bathroom, very clean room and complete amenities. Superb location it is only 100 mtr away from Dongdan station (line 1 & 5) exit B facing to the Jianguo hotel and 200 mtr away to exit A & F facing to the malls at oriental. Subway transportation is the best way to explore beijing since it is very very difficult to find a local who can speak english. Wangfujing street it is around 1 km away from the hotel (right behind of the malls at oriental). I would definately recommend this hotel to everyone
