Romantic 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!

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. 😊

A truly friendly place. They've thought of everything for travelers, from morning coffee and warm water to evening congee and even face masks – all those thoughtful little touches. Staying in this area feels like living life as a local in the hutongs, with birds chirping and sunlight in the mornings, and a lively crowd queuing for bars when you return in the evenings.

This is my second time here, and it's definitely my go-to hotel when visiting Gubei Water Town. The room was spotless, and the service was excellent. Even though it's located just outside the main entrance, getting in and out of the scenic area is super convenient – it only takes three minutes to walk there. I was pleasantly surprised because on my last visit, I was quite disappointed with the Chinese restaurant's food, but this time around, the overall quality has significantly improved.

First off, the hotel environment is excellent, situated on Yanqi Island with an abundance of greenery everywhere you look. It's right next to the International Convention Center and Yanqi Pagoda. After breakfast, you can stroll through the restaurant area to enjoy Yanqi Lake. Secondly, the service is incredibly thoughtful. The day before our arrival, they called to inform us they had upgraded our room type for free. Upon arrival, every staff member was smiling, proactively greeting us and helping with our luggage. There were also thoughtful welcome teas and complimentary drinks. The handsome Leo Liu patiently explained everything. The room itself was spacious, elegant, and spotless, with no unpleasant odors. As someone usually picky about hotel bedding, I surprisingly didn't even use my own disposable bed and pillow covers this time. From the room's balcony, with a push of the window, you could see lush green lawns and lake views, which made our family trip feel particularly pleasant and relaxing. All in all, an unforgettable and satisfying stay!

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.

The lady at the front desk who handled our check-in was incredibly nice. She did her best to find a suitable room based on our requests and even upgraded our room type! There were very few insects in the hotel, which was a huge plus. As for the facilities, it's true that it's not a new hotel, but it was perfectly adequate for a stay with kids! The breakfast selection was a bit limited, which is something that could be improved.

Our 5-night, 6-day stay at Club Med Yanqing Beijing was nothing short of magical. From the very beginning, the service was impeccable, Manager Kang went above and beyond by personally reaching out to us before we even arrived to ask about our preferences and dietary needs. His thoughtful care ensured that every detail of our stay was seamless, comfortable, and wonderfully personalized. Here’s a breakdown of our fantastic experience: 1. Facilities & Accommodation We booked two connecting rooms, and both were spacious, fully equipped, and meticulously maintained throughout our stay. The housekeeping team did a stellar job keeping everything spotless. One small but much-appreciated perk was the unlimited supply of bottled drinking water available at any time, a true lifesaver given how much energy we burned during the day's activities! 2. Dining Experience The culinary offerings were a definite highlight. We thoroughly enjoyed the lavish breakfast and dinner buffets, which offered a great variety of fresh and flavorful dishes. The all-hours noodle bar was a game-changer, serving up hot dumplings, pasta, pizzas, and comforting noodle soups whenever we needed a quick bite between activities. Pro tip for families: ******* delivery doesn't reach the resort, so we’d recommend packing a few favorite snacks for the little ones just in case. That said, we never left the table hungry, overall, our dining experience was absolutely delightful. 3. Endless Activities for All Ages We were wonderfully busy every single day, thanks to the incredible range of age-appropriate activities. Our 4-year-old son was in pure heaven, spending his days exploring the vibrant kids' play areas and splashing endlessly in the swimming pools, which are wonderfully child-friendly with warm, comfortable water. Our 6-year-old daughter, on the other hand, embraced her adventurous side! She conquered the rock-climbing wall, soared with joy on the trapeze, and challenged us to lively games of outdoor table tennis and badminton. The after-dinner parties at the theatre were the cherry on top, she loved dancing on stage, joining in the quirky games, and being mesmerized by the breathtaking circus performances. A massive shout-out to the incredible G.O. team! Their boundless energy, genuine warmth, and incredible patience with the children truly made our stay extra special. 4. Exploring the Surroundings The resort’s location also offers lovely opportunities to venture out. We took the local train to explore the scenic surrounding areas and even visited a nearby vineyard to harvest fresh grapes, it was such a fun, hands-on experience for the whole family. The grapes we picked were incredibly sweet and juicy, and we also bought some excellent local wines to bring back as gifts for our relatives. Back at the resort, the outdoor activity areas, including pony rides, added even more charm and variety to our days. Final Verdict Club Med Yanqing Beijing delivered the perfect balance of relaxation, adventure, and top-tier hospitality. Manager Kang and his wonderful team made us feel truly valued as guests, and the sheer variety of activities kept both our kids (and us!) happily engaged from morning until night. We left with full hearts, tired legs, and beautiful memories. We are already counting down the days until we can return!

This place has everything you could want nearby: food, drinks, entertainment, and shopping. It's really close to the subway station, and bus access is pretty convenient too. It looks like a regular hotel, but it's actually more like a hostel. The staff are enthusiastic and friendly, and there are a lot of international guests. I stayed here for a few days, and they even have washing machines and dryers available. Definitely my top choice for my next trip to Beijing!

Let's start with the positives: Firstly, the location is excellent. Right outside the entrance is Chongwenmen subway station, making it incredibly convenient to reach all the major attractions. This is definitely the hotel's biggest selling point. Secondly, the staff are very service-oriented. Their customer care, from booking to check-out, was impressive, and the front desk was quick to help guests resolve issues during my stay. Now for the areas that need improvement: As it's an older hotel, the facilities are quite basic and dated. The lighting is also on the dim side, especially in the elevators. The rooms show signs of age, with some water stains and black mold visible in the bathroom, and dust accumulation in the corners of the wardrobe door tracks. During this stay, the first room (B213) had a strong odor from the bathroom drain, so with the help of the front desk, I moved to a different room (B559). However, the air conditioning in the second room was not very effective; even at its lowest setting, the room temperature stayed around 27 degrees Celsius, making it feel a bit stuffy in the mornings or at midday. Overall, considering the price, Xinqiao Hotel offers acceptable value for money in the city center. My suggestions for the hotel are: 1. Replace the lighting with brighter white lights to make the place feel less dated. 2. Increase the frequency of maintenance for drainage pipes and the central air conditioning system. 3. Improve the cleanliness of room corners, particularly in the bathrooms.
