Marco Polo Parkside Beijing

Very conveniently placed hotel for the Olympic Park, access to the subway and with excellent restaurants just across the street.

Staffs are nice & good services. A lot of restaurants nearby. Room is a bit old but still acceptable. Difficult to use the TV

Nice hotel near Beijing 2008 Olympic Park, lots of restaurants around the hotel, nice place to relax and meet friends there!

The hotel lobby is nice and has a pleasing appearance. The rooms are clean but the main problem with this hotel for Americans is that people smoke in the rooms and that makes the whole floor smell. If you are unused to cigaret smoke it's hard to handle. The staff is polite but not English speaking so be prepared to order your own taxi if you have the right app on your phone. Recommend getting google translate also as that helps with communications. Hotel restaurant was OK with a good wine list and some pretty good buffet dinners. If you order a la carte you'll probably be disappointed.

Check-in can be further improved. Arrived early and tried to check-in but room was not ready, but this was not the Hotel's fault. Was told to come back 2 hours later which I did, but the room was still not ready. The chamber staff had gone on and cleaned other rooms first even though they were informed by receptionists that the customer is waiting. By the time I manage to check-in, it was already 3.5 hours later. This is not good for business travelers coming to Beijing on an overnight "red eye" flight. There were also no attempts to provide some kind of "free beverage or coffee" while you wait. While checking-in I was informed that all rooms are 'Non-smoking". When I got to my level, there were at least 3 rooms with guests puffing away with their doors wide open while cleaning was in progress. Food prices especially breakfast was expensive. Buffett breakfast rates are almost 30% of the room rates, at 30 pounds a pop. That's why the Cafe is almost always empty. Prices are similar to London or New York. Room was decently clean but sliding doors to the toilet were falling off its hinges, a complete safety hazard. This is 5-star wannabe hotel with 3-star service quality. Ordered room service one nite and had the room cleaned the next day, but they decided to leave the leftover food in the room until I came back in the evening. Had expected more from a Marco Polo. Kinda disappointed. There's a Maccas, Supermarket, Bakery across the street so it did make things a little easier.

Stayed here for the last nights of our Sinorama Tour. The company uses this hotel because of its proximity for our Beijing sites. The breakfast buffets are worth getting up early for! By this point in our tour, many of us had the custom prepared bowl of noodles so we started having them for breakfast, we liked them that much! They also have English, American and Japanese style breakfasts, as well as continental so basically everyone is able to find something they like. A little chaotic in there, but that's very much a part of the Chinese culture. You aren't in Germany after all!

Lost laundry. Rude reception. Not willing to help the guest at all

Bad service..the servers were more interested in their business rather than the customer's.

Very basic hotel, not worth the price but it seems BJ's hotels are all pricy. Not usual Maco polo standard, very local feeling.
