Days Inn Forbidden City Beijing

easy acces to subway line 1, large room, and the breakfast buffet correct.

It's very good location to every attractions, such as Forbidden City, Tian'an Men Square, and Wangfujing Shopping Street. And many small restaurants and little shops near by. Very close to the bus and subway stations too.

If you're looking for an economic stay in Beijing, this hotel may be for you. I booked a room for approx $60 per night and wasn't expecting anything glamorous. Upon arrival the staff was fine - not overly friendly, but helpful enough. My room was small, dark and in drastic need of an update. But, it was clean enough and I didn't plan on spending much time there. The location works well as it is near the subway line and walking distance to Forbidden City/Tiananmen Square. If you're staying with a family, you may want to look elsewhere. But for an individual or couple looking for cheap accommodations on the go, I would recommend Days Inn.

The hotel is located at one of the most easily-assessed locations in Beijing for tourists, with a large Wangfujing shopping and dining district nearby.

If your goal is to be close to Tianeman Square and the Forbidden City, I don't believe there is a greater value to be had. Other hotels in this area are all huge five star monstrosities. This is a very nice 3 story hotel. The rooms are roomy and clean. The restaurant is a combination Chinese American Food place. I would stay again if the above referenced were my focus. Beijing is huge and so it kind of helps to know what you want to see. Also this place is close to the subway with easy access to everywhere around town.

Was given a room below ground with only small window at the ceiling. Smelled musty and smoky. Extremely dark even with all lights on. Bathroom dirty. No elevator to bottom floor so had to truck my own luggage to room. When asked for another room above ground, said, "Nothing available." Since I'm claustrophobic, I rebooked with another hotel. If you intend to only sleep in your hotel room, then go ahead & stay here. It's better with your eyes closed. Though I do admit, location is good.

Economical and comfortable choice close to major attractions. Free wireless internet did not reach our room but worked in the lobby and cafe. Helpful staff but have limited English. Good shower, and beds not quite as hard as typically found in China.

The strongest point of this hotel is that it is a 10 minute walk from the gates of Forbidden City. I don't think there are many other hotels this close. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is good with a mix of Asian and Western cuisine. Sometimes it seems the staff has little experience, i.e. they set the table but forget the utensils. Some of the staff speak very good English, so no worries there. From a Western viewpoint, the room was average and nothing to write home about. Maybe from a Chinese perspective it is better. Order the deluxe room; at least it will be above ground. Bring your own shaving stuff or you will have to buy what is in the room. The bed was fine. I would have preferred wireless internet. The hotel supplies a LAN cable and the wall jack works once you figure out which jack to use. The other jack is for something else but it isn't clearly marked. Overall, I'd gladly stay there again. No regrets

No problem whatsoever. Standard amenities for a Days Inn hotel. I partially chose the hotal for the location, but, though near the Forbidden City, other amenities such as shops are not particularly good here.

Perfect Location within walking distance of Tiananmen Square and Wangfujing Street. Comfortable, modern hotel. Excellent buffet breakfast.
