Grand Hotel Beijing

Good Hotel with a great location - the Concierge Service was outstanding and really helped with our trip.

The hotel is incredible and decorations are on par with an art gallery or museum. The staff is quite nice and always try hard to help. Breakfast was better than expected. Only wish is they would have better electrical outlets by the bed. It also smells as if the room was smoked in despite the ban. I suppose people ignore the rules. What makes the hotel stand out is the location!! Literally steps from Tiananmen Square!!! Beware if you choose a street view or Forbidden City room, it can be veeeery noisy. Tour buses literally show up at 4:30am and let tourists out. Unsure where at 4:30 they are going but u may want to bring some noise canceling ear phones or ear plugs.

Great location, extremely close to the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square on one side and Wanfujing Street on the other side. The hotel itself is a bit old and some of that is evident in the room. Taxis were difficult to get - there is no taxi stand, and the staff would just use the Didi app to hail a cab, sometimes taking 5-10 minutes to get one.

The hotel is in the city center and close to everything. I had a great view of the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. The hotel is older. I would not recommend the room service. I ordered dinner one night and it was horrible.

This property has an excellent location, just one block from Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, but the property is extremely worn and showing its age. We were told upon check-in that our room was being 'upgraded' to a 'suite' which simply meant we had a separate sitting room, but the room was so cold (heat did not work) that we were moved again. We got a Forbidden City view in the new room which was great, but the room itself was very aged and had a horrible smell (think dead mouse in the wall) near the door and moldy smelling bathroom. The beds were comfortable by China standards. The restaurant was extremely pricey so we chose not to dine there. The rooftop bar/terrace that they advertise in many pictures was closed and the terrace locked, so we couldn't go out to take pictures. I would recommend this hotel only for the location, but definitely not worth the price of the accommodation.

Perfect location, good hotel with high level of service.

No air conditioning. There was mosquito in the room.

Extremely good location. Facilities ok. WIFI available for use if you have a Chinese Mobile Number. Arrived 24th, no airconditione and can be quite stuffy and hot in the afternoon. then again you will not be in the room in the afternoon.

Great location and staff. It has a charm as an older hotel but needs improvement. You can't get an air movement from the central fan system making the room stuffy and warm, the towels were rubbing off on me, and the sink counter needs better cleaning.

great location and great hotel
