Great hotel in a great location. We were upgraded to a Residence which was a nice surprise. Breakfast was fantastic with two restaurants to choose from. Staff were very friendly and welcoming.

I love the location so much. it is tucked away nicely in the Hutong but also close enough to the bustling street! it was really dark and quiet at night which allowed for good rest! the hotel breakfast was beyond excellent! the whole experience was one of the best I have had - after staying at many places!

the only minor downside is that there aren’t enough hooks in the room for winter coats and such. would be nice to have places to hang things to air them

Couldn’t recommend this boutique hotel enough. Prime location on a quiet side street with tons to see and eat within walking distance. We originally planned to stay in Wangfujing but we are so glad we didn’t - this was a much more lively and interesting part of the city. Staff were super helpful, providing the best recommendations and helping us navigate different aspects of our trip. Breakfast was awesome, both the Chinese and western options. Room was really comfortable with a handful of nice touches added that made it even better.

The location was fantastic, really great for exploring the Drum Tower area and near the subway. It was very easy to access from the airport and the food options in the area were some of the best we found. The room was perfect, really comfortable and clean. The food options at the hotel were great, we really enjoyed the Furonji restaurant for both breakfast and dinner! The staff here could not have been more helpful. They helped with booking things and also with using some of the local apps to use rental bikes which made our stay a lot easier.

The communication before and during our stay was excellent. Even on the day, we received a message on WeChat to ensure that we were ok coming from the airport. Sarah on reception was excellent when we arrived (as she was during our whole stay!) and helped us book an entry onto Tiananmen Square the next morning. The availability of two types of breakfast was a nice unexpected offering. Location in the Hutong next to the Drum & Bell Towers is really excellent and fascinating. The nearest subway station is about 15 minutes walk.

There was a lot of building work going on so the hotel was a bit in disarray but that will be quickly resolved. We would have liked to have opened the blinds but they were either broken or fixed not to open.

Tucked away in the heart of Beijing’s historic Hutong area, The Orchid Hotel is a hidden gem. You'll find it down a narrow alleyway, and from the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by the loveliest, most accommodating staff. The hotel has just completed a brand new reception area last week, giving an even warmer first impression. The rooms are thoughtfully designed, equipped with a fridge and tea and coffee making facilities — everything you need for a comfortable stay. The showers are powerful with plenty of hot water, a real luxury after a day exploring the city. Breakfast is a real highlight, with a choice of two on-site restaurants serving fresh, wholesome, and delicious food each morning. Don’t hesitate to book this place. The English-speaking staff are incredibly helpful and go above and beyond, assisting with everything from setting up WeChat and Alipay to helping you navigate the city with AMAPs. In a city as bustling as Beijing, having this kind of support makes all the difference.

Prior to our stay, the hotel directed us to the very useful pre-stay information on the its web site. On arrival, the reception staff - who all spoke excellent English - provided a warm welcome which included all the information we could have hoped for, enabling us to make the most of our short, three day stay in Beijing. Throughout our stay the hotel staff made sure we had everything we needed and couldn't have been more accommodating. They were more than willing to help us with excursion bookings, on-line flight check-ins and provide help and guidance in using the local Chinese apps for making payments, ride hailing, etc. The hotel's restaurants are likewise excellent.

The hotel was really cool and different - it had a unique layout with many outdoor parts. The room was nice and had its own elevated bed area. The bed was expensive memory foam and very comfy. The breakfast was amazing at bothbplaces we could choose from. The two cats that live there are very cute and friendly. The staff are also very friendly and happy to chat or give advice.

The hotel location is a little strange deep into a quiet hutong from the main road. However it is still in inner Beijing and not too far a walk so a minor criticism. The room was a little cramped. The bathroom was alright, around average.

The hotel is very well located in the hutong area and close to metro and bus to reach other monuments. The staff speaks English and was always very helpful. The breakfast was very nice and the restaurants of the hotel very good for a good price. The bakery is a bit pricy but very nice as well. The room was clean, well equipped and the basket of fruit was refilled every day.

The place is a bit expensive compared to other towns in China but the service and facilities are really nice. The staircase to reach the bed was a bit tricky at night, maybe not ideal for people with mobility issues.

The location is excellent, and it provides a quiet oasis within the very busy streets of Beijing. We loved rooftop restaurant and bar. The rooms were also stylish and super cool and comfortable despite it being 40 degrees celsius during our stay. My main positive feedback though is reserved for the staff. My friend and I went out every night and were severely struggling to get up for our daytime activities because of both jetlag and being hungover. The hotel staff went way beyond their duty, organising our taxis and on one occasion waking us up when we had slept in. Thank you to the staff.
