"Hidden among a maze of hútòng is this attractive choice within a fabulous location – authentically hidden away from more touristy areas in one of the city’s most historic neighbourhoods." Full review
Rough Guide "Tucked away in a quiet hutong, this is another converted courtyard house that offers an intimate atmosphere, a bit of character, friendly staff, pets, and dodgy plumbing."

Frommer's "The location of this popular sleeping ground for American tour groups is pretty well near perfect -- being so close to the Forbidden City, Tian'an Men Square, and the Wangfujing shopping area." Full review
Lonely Planet "Refitted and overhauled in 2005, the five-star Crowne Plaza enjoys an excellent central location on Wangfujing Dajie, but has little character or charm with odd-looking sculpture dotted around." Full review
Rough Guide "Well-established five-star chain hotel with arty pretensions (there’s an on-site gallery), and a handy location for the shops and sights (it’s near the Wangfujing subway stop)."
Star Service "Primarily meant for business travelers, its location in the financial and business area is a plus. Its low rates can attract groups and tours on weekends, but usually the atmosphere is calm." Full review
Time Out "Fans of this highly rated chain will not be disappointed by the Beijing edition which enjoys an enviable location, being situated at the north end of the capital’s busiest shopping street." Full review
Fodor's "The best thing about this mid-range choice is its central location on Wangfujing, Beijing's most famous shopping street." Full review
