"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

"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."

The breakfast spread is excellent, but avoid the in-house restaurants for lunch and dinner -- both serve disappointing, lackluster fare.

"The hotel opened in 2008 for the Olympics, and by now the rooms are showing the odd sign of wear and tear, but it's still a great option, especially for first-timers to the city." Full review
