Great room with wonderful amenities

The hotel is located in a decent location, close to couple of restaurants among other things. The hotel is slightly old but is decently well maintained. The room was great, the toiletries provided were very thoughtful and good. Only issue we had was that it was a duplex room. So - either carry the luggage upstairs - which is painful if you have lot of luggage; or run up & down to get your stuff. The front desk staff didn't speak English and was a bit painful because of that -. but our guides saved our days. I would gladly give 5 stars if not for the couple of inconveniences.

Lovely stay at a temple hotel

The staff of the hotel are polite and efficient, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a real peaceful ambiance at the hotel. Unfortunately no gym and wireless internet is not the best, but cable internet is fast. English is a challenge for hotel staff, however they do their best to help with any queries/requests. The area is far from downtown (half an hour) and surrounding neighbourhood is not really special.

A true 4 star and enjoyable hotel. Spend four nights there to meet family members and friends. Quiet, but convenient location, close to everything. Many great restaurants in short walking distance. 24 hour hotel services. Very neat! Very friendly staffs. Will surely come back again. Highly recommend!

Not worth it!

This hotel may have been a four star... but several years ago!! Now, the room are not very clean, the bed is horrible, the personnel service is soso and it's location is not convenience! It's far away from the metro and from all attraction and due to its far location it's the last one to be served by the travel agency for city or great wall trip!

Nice quiet hotel.

Checking in was a little rough as there were several big groups from India ahead of me... Everyone seemed a little frazzled. The clerk who checked me in did not speak much English but enough to get through the process with no issues. She was a little surprised at the rate that I got, she said "How you get such a good price?" And had to go consult with someone else to make sure it was legit (I am guessing). The room was quite nice and the visible areas were clean, however in the corners and some semi hidden areas there was sign of housekeeping neglect. This is pretty typical of any business in Beijing it seems. It was also very quiet and very pleasant. Checkout was much easier as the clerk spoke perfect English. Some things to note, even though it says that there is no wireless Internet in the rooms, there was. There was an access point right next to the tv. Also, there was a minibar that had 2 bottles of water, 1 can of coke and 1 can of sprite... There was no indication that these were free or not but it turned out it is free and replenished everyday.

Lovely Hotel

The hotel is lovely and is built on the grounds of an old temple, which has a lot of history. The staff are really nice, friendly and helpful. There is a bit of a language barrier as many of the staff don't speak very good English, but they do try and are all lovely. The room was very clean and we had a good view overlooking the courtyard and old buildings. Also the free mini bar is filled every time you have your room cleaned...2 bottles of water and a can of coke & a can of sprite. Taxi drivers do find it a little bit difficult to find, but there are always taxi's passing by the hotel on the main road. The hotel is a 20 minute walk to the Beijing Railway Station / underground and a 20 minute walk from the Temple of Heaven / The Pearl Market. Nice restaurants very close to the hotel as well as a convenience store and an ATM close by. If we decide to go back to Beijing we would definitely stay at the XiZhao Temple Hotel again.

great hotel that looks like a temple

The hotel seems like it IS the temple. Walking into it is beautiful and the lobby is downstairs. Walking into the room it is very simple and nice, good upkeep. My room smelled of smoke though and the bed was very firm. The shower water would hit the ledge of the tub and then filter to the drain on the floor so be careful getting out of the shower. The breakfast was very good and the staff was very helpful trying to get us a tour or a cab. Some staff's english was limited but there was always someone there that could speak some english. I would stay there again as I am not a very picky traveler.

Adequate but no more than that

Arriving late at night the taxi driver leaves you at a non-descript entrance and the only staff available at the door didn't realise that the 2 large suitcases and 2 pieces of hand-baggage were a little difficult to drag across the cobbled courtyard on your own. At least he held the door open, then went back to fiddling on his phone. Checking in was OK and the room was a decent size but smelled musty. Outside temperature was cold, but so was the internal temperature and the only heating is a warm air convector. Wifi in the room was free but useless for anything but basic email so forget Skype or web-browsing, and the service is intermittent at best. Location is a brisk 20 minute walk from the nearest Metro station though taxis are cheap and the place is well-signposted. Breakfast is poor: chinese selection is as you would expect but get there after 09:30am and there is nothing left, no coffee, just scraps of food and bits of fruit. The same slices of cold meats were brought out and left untouched on each of the 3 mornings I was there. For the central location you shouldn't complain about the price, but you don't get any luxury or amenity in this place, and a business person would require more than what this has to offer.

A good hotel though a bit away from subway

The hotel is built on the premises of a previous temple which makes a nice surround. Rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff is helpful and friendly. The one disadvantage with the staff is their lack of English which even though is better than with most people in Beijing, it still below standards in western hotels. Generally speaking, the hotel provided exactly what was expected. A nice, clean hotel in a quiet part of Beijing. The main disadvantage is that the closest subway station is a good 30 mins walk away. Even though taxis are really cheap in Beijing and the hotel staff is always ready to get you one, with all the traffic jams the subway is always the most preferrable way to get around

Don't

I am rating this hotel as just OK. We were with a tour group and stayed here for 4 nights. We came in on our own a day before. The first room we were given was one in which a heavy smoker used and they had no other room available. They offered to clean the room of smoke, using a spray deodorizer which of course didn't work. This first room also had a non functioning AC system so the room never cooled down. The next day we were moved to another much larger and nicer room. But this AC also did not work. The fan blower would not work. The room was 27C when we moved in by the time we moved to a third room the temperature was 32C. The third room was okay the blower for the AC worked and kept the room at 24-25C. The rooms themselves were large and comfortable except for the AC. Others in the tour group pretty much had the same issue with the AC. AC in all China is pretty much a non working dial or digital unit. I was there in Oct, summer would be HOT, HOT, HOT. The AC system needs maintenance or upgrade to work. The breakfast was okay but overpriced. I pretty much stuck with eggs, toast, coffee and OJ. The rest was not so good.

Fabulous Hotel. Poor location.

Really excellent hotel. Room was so well planned and little things provided like a small emery board for those snagged nails when your moving luggage. A nice thoughtfull touch. Comfortable beds, although harder than home, but normal in China. The staff were helpful and reception staff spoke reasonable English. Domestic staff did not, but we were able to communicate and they were eager to please. Couldn't really fault the hotel. The location was not good. It was a long way from the nearest subway station, about 20-30 minutes walk and need map. Taxi's were difficult to get at any, but the quietest times. They seemed reluctant to stop for westerner's. Nice pleasant restaurant across the road from hotel, don't know name, but has 4 large chinese characters above it. They don't speak English, but know what westerners like. Take phrase book, be patient and enjoy lovely food.

Food at hotel restaurant is average(-), but don't expect five star hotel service ( cleaning tale, setting table..etc) Room is clean and well maintaind, but dfficult to make communication with staffs for service...smile!! Location is not far from interesting sites, but hidden from main roads while sitting at residential area. Tax drivers need map to find it. No gym/fittness facility,

Great hotel for comfort in Beijing

The only minor issue we had was that at any given time we could only find a single person who could speak moderate english. Honestly, the hotel was a spectacular choice, and spoke the best english out of any place we stayed at in China. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it for high comfort in a chinese themed hotel. The location was great, but at times it seemed that no taxi driver knew where the hotel was. Truly enjoyable stay!!!
