Wangfujing Street & Forbidden City hotels & accommodations

This hotel is in the perfect location, within walking distance of the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, many restaurants, and great people watching on Wangfujing Street. The staff are friendly and helpful, the hotel is very clean and has many amenities. Highly recommended!

not having ever stayed in a 5 star hotel we have nothing like it to compare to. however, we were very pleased at the service, cleanliness, and presentation of this hotel. very spacious deluxe room, and the normal room service (cleaning, re-stocking) was terrific too. there is an indoor pool that was a bit on the cool side, but it didn't detract from our daughter hav...

Walking distance to many major tourist attractions. I walked over to Tiananmen Square and Forbidden City and along the way passed by a couple of museums including the China Railway Museum. Other attractions nearby that I can remember off the top of my head include the Temple of Heaven and Wangfujing Snack Street. The subway is very nearby as well while Sanlitun which ...

We stayed at the Hotel for 7 nights. The Hotel is conveniently located within the Wangfujing shopping area and also near to attractions like the Forbidden City (we walked there from the Hotel) and Tiananmen. The Wangfujing subway station is 10-15 minutes’ walk away but it is not a difficult walk as there are shopping malls along the way. Airport shuttle bus (25RMB) sto...

Enjoy the ideal vantage point from this five-star Beijing hotel, located in the heart of the city. Situated on Wangfujing, within walking distance of The Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, Grand Hyatt Beijing is part of Oriental Plaza – one of China’s largest commercial complexes – with direct access to the adjacent shopping mall. Wangfujing Street, located next to t...

Stayed in this hotel for 4 days,after travelling from Shanghai on the bullit train(4.5hrs express G train)Travelled by taxi about 30 mins from South Beijing railroad station.The room size for a standard queen bed is good,although if you can ask for a room with a view of the forbidden city do so, as because of the hotel roof shape,many rooms have only ceiling windows wh...

This is a comfortable, clean and mordern hotel with its location extremely ideal for both the cultural tourist and the deep pockets tourist. The main tourist attractions like the Tienanmen and the forbidden City just a short ride away (walking distance in fact, for the less out of shape) Shopping and the food street at Wangfujing is a sight on its own, blending the 100...

Stayed with Hilton Wangfujing for 2 nights and found that this hotel is one of the best I have stayed in... The price is considered at the higher end, but there is no regret for it... Location is great, just beside Wangfujing Walking Street and also shopping malls around it. Definitely not an issue to shop and dine if you stay in this hotel. Within walking distance (ap...

The Park Plaza is an amazing hotel. It was reasonably expensive even for Chinese standards, but the expereicne was second to none. The room was origially a standard room but I was offered a room upgrade to a suite for a small extra charge. The suite room was AMAZING. huge bathroom and living room and bedroom. Close to all the major attractions including Wangfujing Stre...

We stayed here for a week in the summer. The deluxe room was very big, with desk and comfortable seating area. For China, the room had really fast internet. Breakfast (included in the price) was fine and had plenty of choice. We also tried dinner in the Chinese restaurant – very good. The staff were excellent. Very friendly and helpful and arranged our Great Wall trip ...

From the moment we walked in the door we knew this was the perfect choice. We were greeted by the manager Aref Sayegh. We received a nice surprise and were upgraded to a suite - #6513! All of the staff were extremely helpful - especially Anais Liu, who always greeted us with a smile. Once we checked into our beautiful room we also received some nuts and cookies! I...

30 minutes from Beijing South Railway station. Around 30RMB. Infront have muslim food. 3 minutes walking to Wangfujing shopping street. 10 minutes walking like 1km to Tiananmen Square and Forbidden City. 7minutes to subway station Wangfujing. Good enough. Have a hotel own travel tour.

I wasn't expecting too much. Chose this because of its location, the history, ... and because it seemed like an interesting place. Turns out, I'd equate it to a boutique hotel. Room amenities included. Modern bathroom facilities with traditional room decor. A shared courtyard adds a nice touch. Although the restaurant is only open for breakfast,fab choices of food is j...

Hotel Kapok was conveniently located to major attractions such as the Forbidden City, Tiananmen square and the Wangfujing shopping street. However, we made the mistake of going to Beijing in Winter (As a Sydneysider I've never experienced such cold weather even when I went to the snows at Perisher). As such, it was a struggle to walk even 2 blocks after dark. For anyth...

My friends and I had such a great time here! First off, the staff is super friendly and helpful. They were able to give us directions to everywhere we wanted to walk to (it's super close to the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square), called us taxis, told us the specific subway route and stops to take to get to the train station, and even reminded us to take our passport...

pros : # location is good. near to wangfujing, one of famous street and shopping area in the city. # receptionist helpful and nice # have a work heater in room if you go there in winter contras : # the room is very small compare to price paid # its old hotel. looks like was other hotel but lately being take over by Hanting Hotel group. so the room design and bla bla b...

Stayed here for 8 nights. Clean, nice and v safe hotel. Highly recommended for comfort. However, downside is a little far from WangFuJing, about 15mins walk. Nearest subway is DengKouShi 灯口市 station, at least a 10mins quick walk. Next nearest subway station is WangFuJing station, about 20mins walk. There is a little Family Mart right across the road. Next nearest eatin...

We stayed here for 4 nights, the room was nice. Walking distance to the WangFuJing Street,easy to find good foods at all time, which is very convenient. we even walked from hotel to the forbidden city and Tiananmen square, it is not very far and we can enjoy the scenery along the way. Highly recommended hotel in Beijing.

Stayed all over China this place is at the top of its price range. Not for the hotel or facilities. Location...subway around the corner key to traveling big cities in China. 4 of the biggest malls a block away. Forbidden city, T-square, and a hill for amazing views like 5mins west. The rooms are not huge nor impressive. But clean and spacious enough to be comfortab...

we stayed at this hotel for 5 nights and it was good. the room toilet was clean and big. the hotel room was spacious but the door locked was broken which was not safe for us. therefore we requested a new room and immediately they changed to a new room and it was good as before but not as spacious as before. however, the stayed there was good. even the bed was a bit h...

you know, majority of chinese people don't know how to speak english. the staff and crew of Waldorf Astoria is very helpful to us specially in booking taxi/car and restaurant reservation. also their rooms are very nice, high tech toilet bowl :D And also very near to the Shopping malls and Wangfujing Street Food

We will definitely go back to this hotel when we visit Beijing. The hotel is in the heart of Beijing. Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square, Beihai Park, Jingshang Park, Wangfujing Street and some other night spots are near to the hotel. The staff were very accommodating and friendly.

This serviced apartment is located very close to Dongsi MRT (5 mins walk), there is a big department store across the street (note that it closes at 9:30pm), nice bakery and very clean local cafe at the corner of 2 big streets next to the MRT. There some minor issues like we had only 2 chairs in a quadruple room, but room itself is spacious, there is the washing machin...

This hotel is lovely! The rooms are nicely appointed and spacious. The health facility was great, with nice size workout room, pool, steam and jacuzzi rooms. The location is within walking distance of the Forbidden City and excellent shopping . Above all though, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Jason Zhang in concierge and Ciara in dining!

This hotel is easy to find (we travelled by airport express and subway - cheap, quick and interesting) and very close to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City. The Grand Mercure has an impressive entrance and is welcoming and clean, with a really excellent bedroom (we were upgraded to Executive Suite on the 10th floor). The buffet dining has a wide range of Chinese a...
Cheap places to stay in Wangfujing Street & Forbidden City

The owners are really friendly and helpful! 5 stars for that! They have provided us with many travel advices/recommendations!! We engaged their help to book tickets to the forbidden city using their e-payment which we did not have and also book tour to the Great Wall! The accommodation is courtyard size and we do enjoy sitting at the courtyard for a drink or breakfast ...

- 2 Malaysian girls backpacking - Location is good. about a 5 min walk from the Dongsi subway station, which is pretty central and a few stops away from forbidden city. - stayed in the 8 bed mixed dorm for 4 nights - to be honest, I was a bit shocked that the dorm was so cramped and small, but other than that the room was clean. - the beds are SO fluffy and nice to s...

I LOVE the sitting/reception area in this small hotel. They decorated it with fresh flowers and they smell amazing. This hotel can be hard to find, because it’s hidden in a residential alley. But it’s worth the effort. The location is great too, about three bus stops from The Forbidden City and very close to subway station.

Clean and tidy 3-star hotel, less than 400 meters to Dongsi station (lines 5 and 6). The rooms are small but clean and tidy. Daily cleaning and daily change of bedsheets (if requested). Free umbrellas available if raining. Staff is very kind, even though they do not speak much English. Hotel is great value at this price point, beware of other properties at similar pric...

in general i needed a room for a night. Hotel is located next to a Beijing Hospital, so most of the clients are from other cities. The hotel is not taking care a lot about building a reputation or whatsoever, people are coming anyways, so the staff is not trying to be nice. In the bathroom they have low quality shower gel and shampoo, and you can purchase tooth brush, ...

We travelled in 4 , stayed 3 nights in King Rooms. Rooms were clean and nice staff. As everybody knows, they can't speak english, but google translate helped. Hotel is near Dengshikou subway station.

The floor of the hotel didn clean up.... i go there in 3 pax and they only provide me 2 set of towel, cup and others. i asked for it and they said not enough things to supply. The free coffee in the lobby is very nice to drink. Location of the hotel is strategic.

The staff at Xiao Yuan especially Yang and Ting Ting were very kind and accommodating , making my stay there very pleasant . Also the location was great so close to many main places of interest. Tianamen , The forbidden city, the old food market. Taking the bus and subway was also very close by and easy to use. The shopping areas and places to eat was also good. I hig...
