Find hotels in Changping District

If you stay in Changping as we did, you will learn there are not many restaurants or attractions outside the great wall to see but for us it didn't matter. Changping hotel is a gorgeous all inclusive hotel with a billiard room, bowling which we took advantage of, and 4 pretty good restaurants particularly the sushi (excellent quality fish)and a new head chef who comes to the hotel from being an understudy at Nobu. Point is we didnt need to leave. Everything about this hotel was 5 stars!! Only negative is it was over priced and most wines we selected on the wine list were out.

I stayed at the Ramada Beijing North Hotel over the Chinese New Year as I was visiting friends who live only a short distance from the hotel. I read many other reviews that while liking the hotel marked it down for its distance to the principal tourist attractions of Beijing. I suspect that many tour groups book the hotel - based on the number of people at the morning breakfast buffet and the number of our buses parked in front. That said, I found the hotel clean and the staff helpful. The room attendants housekeepers) were flat out among the best I've encountered.

PROS: -Bidets with heated toilet seats! -They provide slippers and enforce use of shoe lockers (no outside shoes in the living areas) -The beds are comfortable and have useful locked cabinets for storage. Curtains add privacy. -Furniture seems clean and new -Resident cat in the bookshop to play with CONS: -The smell of urine is quite strong at the toilet sink, impossible to brush my teeth there but sinks at the showers are okay -15 minutes from the subway station and far from many attractions, budget at least an hour to get anywhere interesting -Staff don't speak English but friendly and willing to help Address from the confirmation email and the agoda website does not match, it's right next to the highway NOT In the gated community. If not for the inconvenient location this would be perfect.

This hotel was wonderful. We booked the hotel online, and couldn't have been happier. The biggest problem with the hotel is that it is not close to inner Beijing at all, which results in it being difficult to find. Taxi drivers don't really want to go here. However, if you have the name of this hotel written in Chinese, it will be very helpful. The area around the hotel is great, very authentic. No tourist stuff anywhere around the hotel, which is great if you are into that. There is tons of food about a block away from the hotel. There is a KFC if you want that too. Plenty of street food as well. Not much here in terms of shopping. The staff speaks very limited English, but they try their best and will try to translate things for you on the computer. Overall, this was a great place to stay for a few days. The hotel phone number

This hotel is about an hour by car out of Beijing city. It is a lovely hotel we stated here for about US $60 a night - super cheap. Be aware that you will need someone who speaks Chinese with you or do as we did and use iTranslate on your iPhone. The chinese food in the restaurant is top quality and service is very good. If you are wanting to go the the Great Wall, Ming Tombs and jade factory and don't want to go on a tour definitely stay here and hire a taxi for the day There is a huge 4 story Wu Mart supermarket, small shopping centre and bakery next door so you can get whatever you need.
