10/10 Excellent
"Well located hotel in city center with good connections to the metro and nearby shopping. Spacious suite but cleanliness was so-so. For example dirty cutlery was not refreshed. Toilet not properly cleaned several days. Breakfast very good variety and attentive service by staff. Smooth check in and check out. We also dined at the in-house restaurant which we can recommend for a cool experience with locally sourced products."

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Beijing

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most budget-friendly time to visit Beijing is during January, February, and December, when hotel prices tend to be lower. To fully appreciate the city's rich history and cultural landmarks, it is recommended to stay for at least 3 to 4 days. This duration allows you to explore a variety of significant sites, including temples, monuments, and museums, as well as indulge in some shopping and art experiences, all of which offer great value for money.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To uncover last-minute deals to Beijing, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals section on Hotels.com, where you may discover discounted rates on hotels approaching your travel date. Additionally, consider enabling email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, increasing your chances of finding the best prices on Beijing hotels. The Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities easily, ensuring you're among the first to know if rooms become available or prices drop, making it easier to secure cheap accommodation.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates could help you save on your stay in a hotel in Beijing. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels may provide a more personalised experience and potentially better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we will suggest more affordable dates to enhance your chances of securing the best deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels situated near the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but thanks to Beijing's outstanding public transport connections, you may discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even lesser-known nearby cities, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
