Hotels in Tian'anmen Square and Wangfujing Area, Beijing

My stay at the Waldorf Astoria Beijing was absolutely perfect, earning a full five-star review! I experienced both the main building and the traditional courtyard rooms. The location is superb, right next to Wangfujing and within walking distance to the Forbidden City, making getting around incredibly convenient. The hotel's design is truly unique and thoughtful. The rooms are spacious and elegant, the bedding is soft and comfortable, and the amenities are high-quality and smell wonderful – every detail shows great care. Our butler, Willow, provided attentive and thoughtful service; she was warm, polite, and perfectly balanced, never being intrusive. The breakfast spread was extensive, featuring both authentic Beijing specialties and delicious Western options. The afternoon tea was beautiful and tasted just as good as it looked. This is definitely the top luxury hotel to stay at when visiting Beijing. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed my stay here! The property is tucked away in a quiet alley, so it’s peaceful and relaxing, yet just a short walk out to the main street where you’ll find plenty of restaurants, cafés, bakeries, and craft beer bars. The metro station and shopping malls are also within easy walking distance, making it a convenient base for exploring Beijing. The room was clean and fresh, with no unpleasant odors, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. One thing to note is that the heating was on during the colder season and cannot adjust manually. However, I could open the window to let in some fresh air, which helped. One of the main reasons I chose this place was the bathtub, and it was absolutely worth it! After spending the whole day walking around the city, having a relaxing soak was just what I needed. Also, smart toilet is great. Overall, it’s a lovely place to stay if you want a quiet spot in a traditional hutong neighborhood while still being close to restaurants, shopping, and public transportation.

The overall experience of staying in is excellent and impressive. The front desk service is warm and thoughtful, and the communication is very comfortable. The guest room is neat and bright, the sanitary details are in place, and the living experience is very comfortable. The hotel is located on the main road, close to the subway, downstairs is Wangfujing pedestrian street, it is very convenient to go shopping. There is also a free parking lot at the door, which adds a lot of convenience to the journey. The breakfast taste is outstanding, the characteristic noodles soybean paste is authentic, the taste is very good.

I enjoy most is the location itself, walk opposite and Quanjude Peking duck restaurant, walk to the left a few steps and Wangfujing is there. Shop till you drop. Hanting, it is a typical China hotel standard, clean and value for money. The only downside I face during my 4 nights stay is the sound proofing. The wall is made of cement board or plaster board hence the sound proofing is very weak. Can hear people walk by, when they go back into their room and when they talk. Other than that all good. Room is clean, amenities and shower is good, bed is comfortable. The room I got is for solo traveller so no window, only a small opening to corridor on top corner of the wall, which I have to close to reduce the noise.

This is a hotel converted from a traditional courtyard house, so soundproofing is relatively poor. There's a flight of stairs to climb, and you have to pick up food deliveries yourself at the entrance. However, the interior is very clean and safe. The bedding and towels are spotless, especially the pillows which are super comfortable. The bathroom has a wet/dry separation, and the air conditioning is powerful. The location is excellent, within a 20-minute walk to the Forbidden City and 30 minutes to the National Museum. The front desk staff were also very helpful and changed my room when I booked the wrong one. Many thanks!

Staying at the Great Hall of the People Hotel was a great experience overall. The hotel service was thoughtful and meticulous, and the staff were friendly and approachable. The location is uniquely advantageous, very close to Security Checkpoint 7 at Tiananmen Square, making it incredibly convenient for watching the flag-raising ceremony and getting around. Breakfast offered a rich variety of dishes. The only minor drawback was that arriving by transportation was a bit circuitous. The room was comfortable, and it made watching the flag-raising ceremony particularly hassle-free, making it very suitable for traveling with older family members. Highly recommended.

The room was spotless and incredibly comfortable. The host, a lovely lady, was so kind and helpful throughout my stay, making me feel completely at ease. The location is super convenient, close to both the Forbidden City and the west campus of the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital. This trip to Beijing for my re-examination really showed me the city's kindness and warmth; I'm deeply touched.

This was my first time staying in Beijing, and I chose Atour for its excellent value for money. The hotel environment and location were both great, making it easy to get around. There are also many authentic Old Beijing restaurants nearby. Tianxu and Tianlu provided excellent service, and the location is very convenient for exploring. I'll definitely be back next time.

Amazing! We spent five nights staying in a deluxe king room with terrace/balcony at The Purple Horse Hotel in Beijing at the end of June 2026.. The location is excellent. The hotel is situated in the heart of a Hutong which offers a calm quiet and serene experience in the middle of a bustling city, only a short walk to restaurants and shops. The Hutong itself is a great experience, it's safe and friendly and we enjoyed chatting to the locals at the corner shop. The hotel is absolutely wonderful. It's less than two years old and It is finished to a really high standard, the attention to detail is incredible. It felt luxurious with the highest quality furnishings and the bathroom and shower were like something you would find in a spa. Our room had great views over the Hutong and the Beijing skyline and had excellent air conditioning. We had a buffet breakfast and a buffet dinner included and it was delicious and served in a beautiful restaurant on the top floor. Above that there was an amazing rooftop terrace with an outdoor swimming pool, a cocktail bar and 360⁰ views of the city. There is also a Peking duck restaurant on the ground floor, a gym and a self service complimentary laundry room. The best thing about this hotel is the staff. The level of service and the attentiveness of the staff is at a level that we have never experienced before. The staff are super friendly and polite and they are always trying to help. Our room was cleaned to an immaculate level every day and we were often left little gifts and kind notes. The service in the restaurant was great and once again always really kind and friendly, special mention to Nieve for looking after us so well. Anything we needed, any questions we had, the staff really went out of their way to help us and did so with big smiles on their faces and we had fun times in our interactions with them. Everyone had a good level of English, especially the front for house staff and management . If you want a comfortable, clean, modern hotel with great facilities, in a great, safe location and would like staff that will advise and help you and direct you and even organise trips and transport for you, then this is the hotel for you. We would like to thank some of the staff that really went out of their way to help us. Ella and Anduo who organised a print shop for us and helped us find some specific gift shops. Nieve for making us smile everyday in the restaurant. The housekeeping team for making our room so clean, comfortable and amazing every day. Terry the manager for being a really nice guy, for taking the time to talk to us and ask us if we needed anything everyday. And Kevin for making us some really nice tea and helping us with everything when we were checking out. We have stayed in hotels all over the world but this one will always stand out for being that little bit different, for being so immaculate and for going the extra mile. Thank you very much and we look forward to seeing you next time. John and Elizabeth.

Booked via Ctrip for a business trip at the North Garden Hotel. Here is my experience: The location is fantastic, right next to Wangfujing Street. There are shared bikes right outside the entrance, perfect for a leisurely ride when free. I didn't notice the room had no window when booking, but the front desk staff, Wang Yan, kindly helped upgrade my room (since no single rooms were left, she arranged a standard room with a window). However, it's a pity I wasn't informed that the room faces the main street. The road surface is uneven, so passing vehicles make a lot of noise, which was especially loud at night and kept me awake the whole time. The service is very thoughtful and human-centric, but details like this should still be communicated in advance!
