Hot Spring Hotels in Beijing

This was my partner and my first time vacationing in Miyun, and also our first stay at the Hylla Hotel. The entire trip far exceeded our expectations; it was truly wonderful! I have to specially commend our dedicated concierge, Golden Key Ethan. Before we even arrived, he proactively added us on WeChat to connect, showing incredible thoughtfulness and attention to detail. Knowing we wanted to relax and recuperate, he took the initiative to pre-book Ayurvedic treatments and singing bowl sessions for us at the wellness center. He also thoroughly explained all of the hotel's unique offerings, such as the hillside hot springs, the gymnasium, and the mountain hiking trails, clearly outlining the duration of each activity and any booking注意事项 (important notes). We didn't have to worry about a thing. Throughout our stay, he was incredibly responsive, answering any small questions we had almost instantly. He's reliable, patient, and warm. I later learned he's a professional 'Golden Key' concierge, and his professionalism was evident—it’s rare to find such a dedicated and caring service person. The hotel itself is also outstanding. Tucked away on the hillside, the air is fresh and quiet, with negative oxygen ions reaching 9000! The 12 forest hot springs create an amazing ambiance, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the breakfast spread is incredibly rich, far surpassing the quality of a five-star hotel in the city. There’s also a huge kids’ play area, with facilities that cater to both adult relaxation and children's fun. This time it was just my partner and me enjoying a relaxing getaway, and we are completely smitten. We'll definitely bring our daughter and the whole family next time, and we'll certainly ask concierge Ethan to arrange our itinerary again! I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a short, relaxing getaway in the Beijing suburbs or a family trip. Whether it's the facilities or the thoughtful service, it's absolutely worth making a special trip!

We stayed at Xishan Hot Spring Hotel with our child, and overall it exceeded our expectations. The room was very clean, with a good separation of wet and dry areas, and all amenities were well-stocked. The bed was soft and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The soundproofing was excellent, allowing for peaceful rest after a dip in the hot springs. Check-in was fast, and the staff were gentle and patient. The hotel's facilities are truly impressive. There are various indoor and outdoor hot spring pools, and the ******* medicine pool was particularly comfortable. My child loved the Blue Parrot Land and the water park so much they didn't want to leave. There's also a kids' club, which offered a brief respite for us parents. The buffet offered a wide variety of food and drinks. It's a one-stop destination for eating, drinking, playing, and entertainment, and parking is free. It's perfectly suited for a family vacation, highly recommended!

Pros: 1. The hotel is conveniently located near the entrance to Simatai Great Wall. It's easy to access the Wall for hiking, and you can also enjoy views of it from the second floor of the room. The Wall is visible in the distance from the window, making it a secluded retreat away from the hustle and bustle. 2. The hotel offers excellent service. Housekeeping is prompt, and the staff are attentive and welcoming. 3. The duplex suite A is very spacious, perfect for families with elderly members and children. Kids, especially, will love rolling and crawling on the tatami mat. 4. Slippers and bath towels are replaced daily, and complimentary fruit is provided every day. 5. After checking out, I left my headphones in the room. The hotel proactively contacted me and arranged for them to be couriered to me, which I truly appreciate. Cons: 1. The room is very inconvenient for elderly guests with mobility issues. The main bed is on the second floor, making it difficult for them to go up and down. The first floor has a tatami mat, which makes it hard for elderly guests to get up and lie down. If they need to get up at night, they would definitely need assistance. 2. While the room is large, whether the Japanese wabi-sabi style truly suits Chinese guests, especially for a hotel charging 5,000 yuan per night, is a question that needs consideration. The wabi-sabi aesthetic often translates to very sparse furnishings: no comfortable sofas, no bedside tables, no bedside lamps, and certainly no central control panel for all lights and appliances. The tatami mat essentially means sleeping on the floor with a low table, making it very inconvenient and challenging to get up, sit down, or place and retrieve items, which clashes with Chinese living habits. 3. The private hot spring bath in the room only has one switch for hot water, making it impossible to adjust the temperature. Its size is also awkward; it's fine for one person, but feels cramped for two. For a room type designed for six people, such a small bath is quite inconvenient. Furthermore, the inner wall of the bath is made of solid wood, raising concerns about hygiene. 4. The smart toilet was broken and remained unrepaired even after reporting it. 5. The two bedrooms on the second floor, designed to accommodate at least four people, share a single small bathroom, which is a very impractical design. Additionally, the entire Gubei Water Town is not suitable for elderly visitors with mobility issues, especially those in wheelchairs. The flagstone paths are very uneven, and there are many steps, which would make a wheelchair ride extremely bumpy and uncomfortable.

The hotel's size and room spaciousness would be perfectly acceptable for a five-star hotel. The receptionist at check-in was friendly and clearly an experienced staff member. However, the details fall far short of what you'd expect from a five-star establishment. At 1439 RMB, the value for money is extremely poor. There were obvious sticky marks on the bedside table, and the room didn't even have simple coffee, let alone a mini-bar – the fridge was just wasting electricity. The tea bags looked worse than those you'd find in a budget hotel. The toilet paper was incredibly thin, the toilet wasn't smart, and the carpet looked faded. The floor tiles right inside the bathroom door were loose, creaking with every step I took. What I found most outrageous were the slippers; they were such poor quality that they started falling apart after just a few hours of wear, and the soles were so thin it felt like walking barefoot. They've really cut corners too much here; I've never encountered anything like it. The breakfast dishes were unremarkable and very ordinary. Overall, I've never stayed at a five-star hotel with such a bad experience.

We stayed at the Hyatt Regency World Garden with our child during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I expected it to be chaotic with so many people, but the experience far exceeded my expectations! The front desk handled check-in efficiently, and even during peak hours, the staff calmly directed guests, maintaining order amidst the crowd – making us feel at ease the moment we walked in. The swimming pool wasn't even crowded during the holiday, and they have a shallow pool for toddlers, which was great. It's also very close to Qibabu Paradise, just a short walk away. The overall service was warm and considerate, lively yet orderly, making it very family-friendly for those with young children. We'll definitely choose this place again for our next holiday and highly recommend it to all families traveling with kids!

The room is nestled halfway up the mountain, and from the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the blue sky, green trees, and lush mountains right from your bed. At night, while taking a stroll, the stars overhead were incredibly bright. During the National Day holiday, the hotel organized many activities, including complimentary badminton and billiards, as well as tie-dyeing and mountain hikes. Alvin at the front desk was very attentive and provided excellent service throughout, being particularly thoughtful and meticulous. This peaceful atmosphere was incredibly relaxing, so we didn't hesitate to extend our stay for another day, and the kids absolutely loved it.

The rooms are clean and tidy, and come with a balcony. When checking in, you need to register your vehicle to park in the underground parking lot 🅿️, otherwise, you might be charged a parking fee. We had three king-size rooms, and 1119 had the best view, overlooking the lake from the balcony, with a beautiful sunrise in the morning. The room directly opposite could see the golf course behind, which was great for sunset views. The bathroom and bathtub are in separate spaces opposite each other, designed with two sinks for simultaneous use. The front desk is on the second floor, and the connecting corridor to the hot spring ♨️ is also on the same floor, though it's a bit of a walk. The buffet restaurant is on the first floor. Complimentary fruit was provided in the room.

This was my first time visiting Xiaotangshan. My partner wanted a room with both public and private hot springs, so we chose this place. The room type had a large outdoor area, while the indoor area was small, but it had everything we needed. The lights worked well, and there was even an electric blanket on the bed. On the day of check-in, we were assigned a dedicated butler. I think we were a bit demanding, needing the pool cleaned again and picking up takeout, but the butler, Jia Ran, and the other staff members all helped us solve our problems. Highly recommended! The breakfast included in the room exceeded our expectations, offering both Chinese and Western options, and it was delicious. The public areas are worth experiencing; there's a functional hot spring and a swimming area, offering a different experience from the private hot springs – quite nice. As a long-established hot spring resort in Beijing, Jiuhua Hot Spring didn't feel outdated at all during my first visit. On the contrary, many facilities were quite new. The one-on-one butler service was also a pleasant surprise; messages in the group were replied to almost instantly, ensuring we weren't delayed. Special praise goes to concierge Leo; we ordered two takeout meals, which arrived one after the other, and he delivered them one by one, even tagging me in the group chat to let me pick them up instead of leaving them on the ground for me to retrieve. This showed his attentiveness and responsibility, a big thumbs up. Overall, the hot springs here are exceptional, and the service is impeccable. It's no exaggeration to say it surpasses some star-rated hotels. I would definitely consider returning, and I wish them continued success.

The environment is great, the decor is elegant, the bedding is clean, and the king-size bed is very comfortable. The facilities are complete, and the soundproofing is good. I had a very pleasant stay.

The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic! You can reach the foot of the Great Wall in just two minutes. The room was super clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. My in-laws, who were traveling with me, loved just relaxing in the armchair by the window, breathing in the fresh air, so much so that they said there was no need to even climb the Great Wall – just staying at the hotel was a treat in itself. There's also an adorable tabby cat at the hotel that loves getting belly rubs. Dining was convenient too; Yanxi Fishing Village is right in the courtyard, and the food portions were generous. After we came back from the Great Wall, we rested at the hotel, and the staff even thoughtfully brought us afternoon tea. It was such a warm gesture and really helped to wash away the fatigue from climbing the Wall. The scenery at Mutianyu is just beautiful! We'll definitely be back, and when we return, we'll stay here again and come to pet your cat once more!
