Soluxe Courtyard Hotel Beijing Reviews

It's well-located near Houhai, a paradise for pubs, night clubs, interesting shops and restaurants. The hotel features old Beijing architectural style. If you want to have a taste of living in the old Beijing, it will be great to stay there. The only demerit was that there was a fly in me room, as I lived at the first floor.

This hotel is located at the entrance of a Hutong. If you don't mind the dusty and somewhat shabby environment outside the hotel and you like the nostalgic idea of living in a very old (but restored) courtyard house it's ok. In our case there were renovation works going on nearby in the Hutong with the associated drill hammers starting before 07:00 am. Make sure that you get the room which you booked. In our case only the third room was more or less what we expected. Our (standard) room was about 14m2 plus a bathroom of about 4m2 with a very large and comfortable king size bed. But because the bed was so big, there is little room for the suitcases and to move around. There was a massive amount of dust bunnies under the bed though. Unfortunately everything of the 'warm' local buffet breakfast was cold despite food was stored in containers (but the heating was turned off). Only eggs are fried while you wait. Another good thing is that the subway station is only 2 minutes away.

nice traditional style hotel. Staff are the nicest iv found in any hotel in China. 2 minute walk to subway. Has a tea room, private VIP dining room, restaurant and proper SPA centre on the 2nd floor, garden with pond, walkway with birds. Stayed in a standard twin room. Small lcd on the wall. Complimentray green tea in room. Bathroom is ok, some users complain of the shower being near the toilet bowl. Theres nothing wrong with this. AC is good. Overall a surprisingly pleasant change from the usual hotels in china.
