The hotel is ideally located and convenient if you are in Beijing for academic activities around Tsinghua or Peking University.
It is closer to the Tsinghua Science Park and some local eateries, international banking facilities and a shopping mall. Watering holes and KTV spots are a walkable distance.
A number of hotel staff are very helpful and attempt to communicate in English (I am a non-Chinese speaker) whenever they can.
The view from upper rooms (my room) is nice and one can see bits of the city on clear days, nights and mornings.
The breakfast is average and is well stocked every morning.
The fitness centre is reasonable for business travellers.
The house keepers are prompt when you need house keeping services or additional complementary amenities.
The only downside is the hotel is slightly far from the CBD, Great Wall, Forbidden City and BCI Airport.
It’s also not air-proofed for those who are very particular about Beijing smog and are health conscious.
Internet access is nightmare and is not secure so apart from difficulties trying to get your VPN up, you are not sure whether or not to connect to an unsecured network.
Finally checking out can be really slow. It took me also half an hour to process my check out. Best to check out as early as possible if you are running on a tight schedule.More
