Hotels near Houzhao Building in Beijing

Great hotel in a fantastic location in the Shichahai area, in a Hutong in Beijing. Despite the cool but confusing name (also known as Shichahai Shadow Performance Hotel on Google Maps!), it is a really friendly place. The staff are all really helpful- Seven speaks fluent English and is great at sorting stuff out; Prince, Lily, Joli and Amy speak English using a great translator phone app, which is fine for basic communication. But best of all (and a surprise to me), is that they have a Shadow Puppet show in the evening at 8pm in the small central theatre shaped atrium. It's free for residents. Don't miss this. It's a dying art, and the hotel has local shadow puppe**aster Mr Wang there every day. I'll definitely be going back the next time I'm in Beijing. Loved it!

A great accommodation experience. The hotel facilities are complete, the rooms are clean and tidy, and there is voice control by Xiao Ai. The location is right by Houhai, very close to Line 6 and Line 8. It is very convenient to eat, drink and travel. I will definitely choose Houhai next time I come to Shichahai Hailiyuan Hotel.

I’ve stayed at Perfect Nostalgia recently and I definitely suggest it for short trip in Beijing. Located very close to the famous NanGouluxian, you can find restaurant and small bars and coffee shops all around. The room was pretty, clean, a bit small but since I was just by self it was perfect! It had all the comforts, towels and toiletries. The staff was super kind and available for any inquiries and very fast while doing the check in registration. Definitely a 10/10!

I think the hotel staff are super amazing and very friendly. I reached from huangshan at 3 pm and previous guests were still 10 mins away from checking out from Panaromic balcony room type I booked. So they quickly upgraded me to a better room and offered me another upgrade to a ground floor room with a yard and very cool traditional Chinese bedroom (an expensive one compared to my booking). Location wise 7-12 mins walking from four subway stations. Breakfast ain't swerved so that's why gave 3/5 for Food. Anyway, Good food options like Mr. Shi dumplings, Coast coffee and bar, Courthouse coffee and bar and many other old Winehouses and hutong restaurants are 10 mins walking radius and many other options nearby. Walk the old alleys and hutongs and find your way. Hotel is super clean. They even helped contact many tour operators as per my needs and requirements, and helped me book a trip to simatai and gubei water town. Communication with staff in china is difficult but hotel reception kid with little English speaking and reading capabilities was super sweet to help my stay make a wonderful one. Thanks to Lue in photos for being super patient and welcoming us cheerfully at Qinfu, Beijing.

This hotel is located in a bustling area in the city center, with convenient transportation and many shopping malls and restaurants around, which is very suitable for business and leisure travel. First of all, the hotel's facilities are very complete. From the lobby to the guest rooms, every place shows traces of careful design and maintenance. The guest rooms are spacious and bright, and the beds are soft and comfortable, which gives me a good sleeping environment. Secondly, the service quality of the hotel also impressed me. Whether it is the front desk reception or the room service, the staff have shown extremely high professionalism and warm and thoughtful service attitude. They patiently answered my questions and took the initiative to provide help, which made me feel very warm and comfortable. In addition, the hotel's catering is also excellent. The breakfast is rich in variety and authentic in taste, which makes me have a good appetite every day. The restaurant in the hotel also offers a variety of delicacies, whether Chinese or Western food, to meet the taste buds of guests. In general, this hotel has performed very well in terms of location, facilities, services and catering. I am very satisfied with this stay and will recommend this hotel to friends and family.

It was my first time to stay at Rongfu Old House Hotel. I was very satisfied. The location of the hotel is very good. It is within walking distance from Shichahai, Jingshan Park, Nanluogu Lane and other attractions. There are also many delicious restaurants around. There is a bus stop at the door and a subway station 10 minutes away. It's also very close and convenient. The hotel facilities are very good. Yuan Peng's service is very warm and thoughtful. During the period, Yuan Peng helped us solve various problems.

The room is small in size but the facilities are quite complete. Access control is better for security. The internet speed is pretty good and the bedding is nice and comfortable. The breakfast is very exquisite, tastes pretty good, and has a wide variety of choices. There is nothing the same every day, which is worthy of praise as a fast hotel. Right out the back door is Xihai Park, which is perfect for a stroll after a meal. About 300 meters from the front door is the Jishuitan subway station, and the transportation is very convenient. Especially when going to the Great Wall, take bus 877 and walk for about 5 minutes. Some rooms have windows in the corridor, which are marked in the room description. Those who are sensitive to this can pay attention. In addition, I would like to give a small suggestion to the store owner. You can put a hotel signboard at the back door, which will not only make it easier for customers to find the store, but also provide advertising.

The advantage is that it is close to Nanluoguxiang and not far from the Drum Tower. The disadvantage is that there are no plastic slippers. You can only wear disposable slippers when taking a bath. They are very slippery and can easily fall. The air conditioner in the room I stayed in was turned on to the maximum, and after two hours it was 23 degrees Celsius, which was extremely dry. After the wind speed was turned down, the temperature quickly dropped to 20 degrees Celsius. It was cold and dry, and I didn't sleep well all night. What I was most dissatisfied with was the hotel's attitude. My daughter found a red light in the socket and suspected that there was a camera. With the encouragement and help of a local police friend, she called the police station. When the police came, they said it was a USB indicator light, which was not good at first. I was so embarrassed to cause trouble to the police and the store, but I didn't expect that the power was completely cut off later. The store said that inspection could not find the cause. My daughter and I waited in a small dark room for 40 to 50 minutes, and finally we were told that it could not be repaired. Without electricity, there is no heating, and it is impossible to wash or drink hot water. I suggested changing rooms, but the hotel owner said they were fully occupied and couldn't change the room. They could only give me a refund and stay elsewhere. At 10:30 in the evening, we are asked to go out and look for a hotel. Isn’t this a joke? ! I quickly called back my husband and friends who were eating nearby. The result of their negotiation with the store was that they would open a new room for us, and my husband's friend would stay in the one without electricity. Not long after I changed rooms, the one without electricity also had electricity! I'm quite angry. Isn't it full? Isn’t it impossible to repair it? Are you bullying us two? Are you punishing us for calling the police? I originally came out to take the children to relax, but I didn't expect to encounter such a heartbreaking thing! The first time I called the police in my life was really unforgettable!

The store is very elegantly decorated. Although the rooms are not big, they are quite clean. The staff are very polite. There is a leisure area and a drying area on the second floor. You can go to Houhai within walking distance. Food, accommodation and transportation are convenient. You can go to Jishuitan Hospital within a 78-minute walk. It arrived in just a few minutes. I stayed for two nights. The store also gave me snacks as a souvenir when I checked out. Overall, the experience was very good. I recommend this hotel😊

Overall, the room is quite satisfactory. Downstairs of the hotel is the bustling Nanluoguxiang commercial street, but the hotel is relatively quiet, which is suitable for travelers to have a good night's sleep after a long day of running around. The third floor platform of the hotel can directly overlook the entire Nanluogu Alley. It was winter in Beijing when I came here, and in the morning, people in alleys of all sizes were sleeping quietly in the snow. The hotel rooms are larger and the facilities are more comprehensive, but they seem to have been there for a while. In addition, the lighting design in the room is not very good. You have to turn on the corridor light when sleeping. Of course, it doesn't matter if you turn off all the lights. All in all, as a three-star hotel, this is great value for money.
