Mountain View Hotels in Beijing

The newly opened hotel has very new facilities, a bright and spacious lobby, nicely decorated rooms, and comfortable bedding. The breakfast is plentiful and delicious. The only downside is the noise from heavy trucks on the road.

This was my first time visiting Gubei Water Town, and I booked a family room with three beds at the Gubei Zhiguang Resort Hotel. Before check-in, Manager Tong contacted me via WeChat, providing a detailed explanation of the check-in process and even sending me the scenic area's mini-program. Thanks to this, everything from dining to accommodation and activities went incredibly smoothly, and I had a fantastic time! After checking out, I realized I'd left some clothes in the room. I immediately contacted Manager Tong, who promptly checked the room, found my clothes, and even arranged for them to be couriered to me, allowing me to continue my trip worry-free! This trip to the Water Town was truly worthwhile; the service at Gubei Zhiguang Resort Hotel was top-notch, making me feel right at home! Thumbs up! 👍👍👍 Time was short, but I'll definitely be back to hike the Great Wall next time. 😊

The hotel has a fantastic design, very grand and impressive. The location is super convenient, right above the subway entrance. Being at Wangfujing No. 1, it helps avoid Chang'an Avenue traffic, which means less congestion while still being very accessible. The room's light switches are easy to use, and the toiletries provided are better than many other five-star hotels I've stayed in. During housekeeping, they noticed I was using a water bottle as a temporary cup and thoughtfully replaced it with a disposable one. They also proactively placed my suitcase on the luggage rack. I'll definitely stay at The Puxuan again on my next trip to Beijing.

The place is beautiful and owner couple were super helpful! Location was perfect to go anywhere in the Watertown and not too far from the entrance to the Great Wall. Also super near to the square where the drone show is at. Breakfast was great, often being served with local treats for us to try. We stayed with 2 teens, 1 child and 2 adults. My children were upset that we didn’t stay any linger there. If we would to be back, it’s definitely where we’ll be staying! Highly recommended!

Overall, it was a pleasant stay. The only downside was that the hot spring ticket provided by the hotel stated it opened at 3 PM, but when we arrived at 3 PM, the gates were closed. A sign at the entrance said it opened at 3:30 PM. Waiting for half an hour in the scorching heat was a bit tough. I hope the hotel can confirm the correct operating hours and update their information accordingly.

We stayed at Bolo Hotel for one night after a long day visiting the Great Wall, and what truly made our stay memorable was the outstanding service provided by Liam. From the moment we arrived, Liam impressed us with his initiative and professionalism. As soon as we stepped out of the car, he immediately helped with our luggage and insisted on carrying our bags. While all the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful, Liam stood out by a mile because of how proactive he was in anticipating guests' needs. We had purchased some fruits from a nearby local market, and without us even asking, Liam offered to wash them and later presented them beautifully plated in our room. He also offered to assist with our laundry, consistently going above and beyond what would normally be expected. What impressed us most was that his attentiveness never felt forced. On the morning of our departure, despite having worked late the previous evening, he personally came by during breakfast to check that everything was going well and that we were enjoying our stay. At checkout, he had already noted our departure time and, without any prompting from us, proactively asked whether he should come and help with our luggage. His service was truly second to none. Liam is a tremendous asset to Bolo Hotel and embodies the very highest standards of hospitality. He sets an example that many in the industry could learn from. We are extremely grateful for his kindness, initiative, and genuine care throughout our stay. Thank you, Liam, for making our short stay such a memorable one.

1. The friendly service attitude of the hotel staff was the first thing I appreciated most. 2. The architectural style of the hotel's courtyard (siheyuan) was a highlight I had to discover myself, rather than it being prominently advertised by the hotel. This was a bit of a shame, but I truly loved the traditional Beijing siheyuan feel. 3. The hotel is located in the most secluded corner of the Water Town area, offering a quiet and serene environment, which I really liked. 4. Although the hotel is quite a distance from the park entrance and the bustling Sun and Moon Island, the electric shuttle service provided by the park is excellent. This made it very convenient to return to the hotel to rest or to depart from the hotel to explore various scenic spots. 5. The breakfast was simple but offered a good variety, including vegetables and meat, both Chinese and Western options, three types of fruit, and American coffee from a bean-to-cup machine. Food items were replenished continuously, and the dining environment was comfortable and cozy. 6. The hotel is situated right next to the entrance of Simatai Great Wall, the park's main attraction, making it very convenient to return to the hotel after an evening tour. 7. It would be even better if hotel guests received more discounts for visiting attractions or dining at restaurants, especially if there were greater specials for dining at the hotel itself. This would definitely encourage more in-house guests to dine there. 8. A special thank you to the lady at the front desk for her incredibly thoughtful and detailed service on our check-out day. She helped us with our luggage and arranged for the shuttle to take us to the first parking lot. My wife and I were very touched by her warm service.

The hotel boasts an elegant environment, making you feel like you have an entire mountain to yourself. Built into the hillside, the two-bedroom suite we booked this time was located mid-mountain. The hotel community has complete facilities, and the main entrance is fenced off with a gate, so the security is reassuring and makes you feel very safe. The shuttle service uses Voyah commercial vans, which are super comfortable! The staff helped with our luggage, which was very thoughtful and attentive. It's about 10 kilometers from Badaling Great Wall, and Shuiguan Great Wall is nearby and not crowded. Juyongguan Great Wall is also conveniently located on the way to Beijing South Station, so we stopped by, making our trip even more rich and fulfilling.

The biggest highlight was that my child learned to swim here. The hotel has everything—food, accommodation, and entertainment. We stayed for three days and two nights, but still didn't get to try all the indoor and outdoor facilities, like the gym and the ball pit, let alone the outlet mall. The main attractions for kids were the hot springs, ball pit, billiards, and claw machines. Bruce provided excellent service and was very helpful. We'll definitely be back next year.

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!
