    big, luxury room in Beijing

    In Beijing we stayed in the Harmony Hotel.
    To me that was a good way to start our 4 week roundtrip.

    The room was spacious and very clean. In the bathroom there was soap, shampoo, toothbrush, toothpaste, comb (as in most Chinese hotels). The room was quiet.

    For breakfast there was a buffet, with Western and Chinese dishes. The price for breakfast . . . . well, one day I payed 30 yuan, and the next day I only payed 20 yuan, so it was not really clear what the exact price was.

    There was a business centre with (expensive) internet possibilities. It was much cheaper at the internetcafe near the Hutong quarter just behind the hotel.

    The location was great, only a few minutes of walk towards the Beijingzhan Metro Station. And from there you could discover the whole City for a few Yuan.

    There were also plenty of taxis near the railway station.

    Harmony Hotel: For those on medium budget    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • For those travelling on medium budget and looking for something in between 3 and 4 stars hotel, this is a recommended one. Situated next to Lido Holiday Inn. In midway between the airport and the city center. Service is ok, room is ok, price is reasonable.

    Quiet surrounding and environment.

    Excellent hotel for this value! We stayed there for about a week in late May 2004. For about 50 USD per night (two adults, luxury room, breakfast not included, booked via third party agency), we got a large room with air conditioner and bath, electronic lock, safe and even ADSL socket. Every day we were delivered new disposable combs, toothbrushes, slippers and even teapot with two cups of jasmine tea. There is a sauna (didn't have the time to visit), a beauty salon, a restaurant (breakfasts are 30 yuan and it's self-service pick-all-you-want, either Western or Chinese, very filling), a bar, same day laundry and transportation services. Word of warning about transportation though: this is not a hotel service, they just call a taxi, so the usual rules of using a Beijing taxi apply :-) . Meeting in the airport will cost you 200 yuan - don't use, you can hire a taxi for 70-100 yuan (not the guys that approach you near the currency exchange!!!) or use the shuttle bus for less than 20 yuan.

    Staff is very friendly and helpful, most of them speak reasonable English.

    The location is outstanding - 1-3 minutes of walk to Beijing railway station (and subway), close to Tiananmen and Wangfujin (not within the walking distance though, unless you're a professional hiker).

    Negative sides - it's just above the noisy Central Post Office so sometimes you might want to close your window and turn on the air conditioner. The hotel website doesn't work properly (none of the listed emails works), so to communicate you'll have to use the fax or the phone.

    The location is fantastic - 1-3 minutes of walk to Beijing railway station (and subway), close to Tiananmen and Wangfujin (not within the walking distance though, unless you're a professional hiker).

    Harmony Hotel: Reasonable hotel in convenient location    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:

  • The Harmony Hotel is located near the Beijing Railway Station with very easy access to the subway and local buses.

    The hotel is quite comfortable with reliable hot water, comfy rooms but unfortunately the beds are really hard. Like most hotels, the rooms have cable but in my room the English channels didn't work (not that you're there for the TV anyway!!). The hotel is very clean though and those on a medium budget would be quite happy here.

    The hotel has a bar and a restaurant and it's Y30 for a buffet breakfast which includes both western and chinese options. The drinks are more expensive than outside of the hotel though, so it's not the place to have a big drinking night!

  • If you arrive in Beijing by train, the location of Harmony Hotel is perfect. Just 5-10 minutes walk from Beijing Central Station.

    20-30 minutes walk from the hotel to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.

    The hotel is nice and clean. Nice rooms - we had no problems at all. The staff helped us with transportation around in the city.

    The restaurant at the hotel is rather expensive, but there are a lot of small local restaurants in the area (chicken, rice and a beer only 2-3 USD).

    Harmony Hotel: Close to the station    Check Rates
  • Tip Rating:
  • Satisfaction:
  • The Harmony Hotel is close to the railway station and the subway. Therefor it is a good strating point to get around Beijing.
    If you are keen on walking you can walk to the Tiananmen square and the Forbidden City it is about 30-45 minutes walking.

    The hotel has good spacious rooms with a clean bathroom. There was hot water in a thermos in our room to make some tea. That came in handy the first afternoon when heavy rain struck Beijing and we decided to stay in our room. There is a bar in the hotel, but it is small and not so very attractive.
    The breakfast was not included, but for 30 Yuan we had a buffet breakfast with chinese and western food items. Worth the money.

    They also have an internet connection. It was reasonably fast and we could get on VT within seconds. The downside was the price for 1 Yuan per minute opposite the three yuan for one hour in an internet cafe in the hutong some streets away. The internet cafe was not as reliable tough, some group members tried there a few times before they had connection.

    Harmony Hotel: Undiscovered and Unheralded    Check Rates
  • Satisfaction:
  • Harmony Hotel is a great place to stay. They had good service (although not many of their staff speak English) and their staff will try to help you as much as they can. I particularly liked their doorman who never failed to greet us with a smile and even talked to the cab drivers to take us to our destinations. (Needless to say, we usually mangled the pronounciation.=))
    They have affordable laundry service and will return your clothes to you, neatly pressed. However, they'll return your clothes which are in danger of being ripped to pieces.=)
    The room is relatively spacious and has all the basic aminities (ie. private bath and tv). The room we stayed in also provided a safe. Their complementary tea is always replenished each day (probably because we kept requesting that they clean our room =))
    A couple of disadvantages aside from non-English speaking staff: 1) they don't change currencies on Sunday so we had to go to one of the bigger hotels to have our currency changed; 2) they don't have their own hotel to airport transportation. They contact one of the local cabs and it's separately charged from the hotel bill. The cab fare is 200 yuan, 100 yuan higher than what we paid to a driver we bargained with in the airport in our first day; and 3) they'll annoy you with morning calls asking if you'd like to try out their spa.

    All in all, it was a pleasurable place to stay in. Very affordable and it's near the subway and railway station.

    They have a great bathtub! =)

  • This hotel was pretty basic, it was close to most things in Beijing. A short taxi ride to the Forbidden City and Tian anmen Square. Lots of shopping near by also. If you are just looking for a place to sleep, this will work out nicely.

  • A 3 star hotel in a great location and next to some of Beijing's remaining hutongs - make sure you take a walk through one of these if you get a chance. We had some fantastic egg butties for breakfast off the streets and had the best meal of my whole trip to China in a small backstreet restaurant behind the hotel.

    30 minutes from the airport. Close to the subway and Tianenmen Square.
