I arrived on an early morning train so it was wonderful to walk over to the Harmony and check in and clean up. This hotel is a 2-3 star hotel that has no pretentions about being rated higher but does a wonderful job. The staff were all professional and it just seemed like an extremely well managed place. Close to the railway station and subways, it was easy to get around. The rooms were clean and well looked after. There is a lobby bar but it does get very busy.
I highly recommend this hotel.
Every staff I dealt with was professional and seemed to take their job seriously.
Good location close to train station and subway.
None noted. It is a 2-3 star hotel that does its job efficiently and effectively.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Close to the subway for ease of getting around.

It's only a small boutique-style hotel but the rooms are clean and spacious. The location is good, it is within walking distance to the train station and only a short taxi ride away (about €2) to the main tourist attractions such as Tiananmen Square, the silk market and the Forbidden Ccity. The front desk are obliging and have good English for organising transfers to and from the aiport, etc. Would stay there again for the location if going to Beijing again.
Good location near train station--walking distance. Everything in Beijing is very spread out but hotel is only a short taxi ride from Tiananmen Square and the silk market.
Shower wasn't the hottest.

I booked the Harmony hotel through Agoda and it was a quite good travel agency. Byt notice that if someone else pays your room with his/her credit card, you need to send copies of that credit card to Agoda's office. It could have been complicated since I wasn't sure if the hotel receives the information, but after all everything worked out just fine. And if you book the hotel with Agoda and pay it with your credit card, you need to show your own credit card in Harmony hotel's reception when checked in.
Harmony hotel was clean and comfortable and situated just next to Beijing railway station (walking distance!).
The staff spoke very good english compared to other parts of China. They were very helpful advicing adresses, etc.
There was always a taxi waiting for you.
The Internet was not included to the price which is why I was disappointed. It costed 50 RMB per day and didn't work in every room.
- Travel tip : There are two metro stations just nearby, but in the begining of August the Beijing Railway station was closed.
