Beijing Asia Hotel

Classic Chinese hotel with a slightly faded glitter. Good service. Tiny gym, but a reasonable sized pool. Not next to anything, but central location if you are willing to walk for 10-15 minutes.

Very nice spacious, clean and comfortable rooms. The hotel has a very good location close to the metro and there is a bus stop right across the street. The staff is good but could be more helpful.

The location of the hotel is perfect. Near subway and in a good neighborhood. I felt safe walking around with my luggage at night and returning late the rest of my days. The staff were really helpful and kind. Room was really clean.

The room was very nice, the staff were very helpful. It's only a few minutes walk from the subway. I had a great time there and would book it again.

My main issues with this hotel are: 1) it had not been kept up to the expected standards since my last trip here two years earlier. The exterior of the hotel looks dated with some parts of the building requiring upgrading / repairing. Even the sign on the hotel could do with a clean! 2) upon checking in I was asked for a cash deposit. My hotel room was fully paid for through Expedia. The deposit requested was Almost the same amount I had paid for two weeks stay. The hotel reception (3 of them) insisted I must pay this. I advised I wanted to cancel the booking because if this. The hotel said I couldn't. 3) attitude of the hotel manager / booking department. Having had the issues mentioned at (2) I contacted Expedia. Three Expedia agents tried contacting the hotel - who the kept refusing to discuss with Expedia and would then hang up (according to the Expedia agents). Expedia eventually advised me they would refund the majority of my hotel costs (it took them two days with numerous emails to the hotel) and I arranged to book another hotel via Expedia. Upon checking out the receptionist told me I couldn't! They advised there booking department had not received any contact from Expedia and had not received any emails. They attempted to stop me leaving - I ignored them and left as agreed with Expedia.

Check in was a breeze, but some mix up on the room. The ac did not work proper, so we changed rooms next day. The rooms are a bit small, but clean and cool. That's what you need in Beijing in the summer!! Beds are comfortable. Great location to subway and some decent food around there.

Enjoyed our stay here. It is walking distance from the subway and one stop for Dong Zhi Men Subway where you get the Airport Express. There isn't much to do right outside the hotel but its a short walk to Sanlitun where there is shopping and food. The pool was a big plus for me given the hot weather!

Impossible to avoid the smell of smoke. We originally checked in on the 18th floor but asked to move as that floor smelled like a chimney. We were then relocated to the 13th floor which was an improvement but you could tell previous guests had smoked in the room even though it was posted as non-smoking. The room on the 13th floor was recently renovated as the bathroom was much nicer than the one on the 18th floor. The food for breakfast on the other hand was excellent.

This hotel is quite and also have good service. The room is small which I was stay. But is the cheaper one, so I think is fine.

Pretty good, better than average. Not sure its worth paying for the 'slightly better' rooms as they seemed pretty much the same as the bog standard room. And trying to change them through Hotels.com after you arrive is nearly impossible.
