Possible Convenient Clean Budget Hotel”

The Poly Plaza was right at a subway stop although I walked ten minutes from the larger Dongzhimen station where the Beijing airport express train ends. The main hotel which includes restaurants and a theatre looks quite classy but I stayed at the lowest priced budget rooms located in the separate building B which you have to access from outside. I had to carry my luggage up a musty smelling staircase to floor three since there is no elevator. The room itself was surprisingly clean and spotless though but bland. It looked more like a college dorm room. An electric tea maker was convenient as I used it to boil drinking water for myself. However, it's the bed that really put a negative impression as it was rock hard. I'm glad I spent only two nights sleeping on it. I would not recommend the rooms in building B but might be willing to stay in the main hotel tower if their prices were reasonable.

Pay for a room in the main building”

We spent the 1st night in a room in the annex building which were very basic and had no wifi. On the return leg we stayed in a room in the main building - a world of difference. The room was more expensive but was more like a "proper" hotel room. If not travelling on a budget then I recommend you pay the extra. The hotel is located above an underground station so you can get to all the tourist sites very easily - Tiannamen Square, Olympic site and Sanitun is a 15 minute walk or 20rmb taxi ride away.

good place to stay when you visit beijing”

Since the hotel is locate in the central of beijing, and also upon a theatre, most of the taxi driver will know the back to hotel. Don't under estimate "taxi driver know where to go" this point, if you're not a chinese language speaking travlers, this is very important. I don't have much negative feeling of this hotel, I quite enjoy my stay.

good location,clean room,good survice”

If you'd like to visit places in Beijing by subway,this hotel is a very good choice. From subway line no.2 at Dongsishitiao station just walk from exit B,on the left; situated the hotel. The room is clean and non smoking unit is provided as request. Front desk staff is 24 hrs. survice and very willing to help though most of them can't speak English well and we are very much appreciated at Mr. Han Let with his survice mind.

Not as regular hotel”

This is not a separate hotel building its mix type building with in Poly Theater poly club and some Function halls they also have rooms for stay room was ok noting special so i tell to others. over all not bad

Good location for business and vacation trip”

The room are nice and the staffs are speaking good English. The room cleaning does a good job, but sometimes I think they do no vacuuming. I stay now several times already in that Hotel and I like it. So far I did never go to the restaurants in the Hotel; therefore I can not give any comment on that.

Very accessible and good service ”

My son and daughter are billeted at a hot spring resort at the north end of Beijing for one week. It is about 2 hours by train to the city center. In as much as my husband will be arriving on the fourth day we decided to book at Poly Plaza Hotel via Agoda website so we can welcome him and go on with the city tour. Though it was our first time there, we had no problem locating it because it just at the exit of the subway and although the room is advertised to hold 2 pax max, we were accommodated without extra charge. Also as we are sightseeing on our own, the staff in their business center guide us through and gave us maps. It is good for us that they can speak the english language though not so well, but they don't have much information on their bus lines which by the way is also cost efficient in lieu of the most preferred subway plus the city view. I'm glad to have booked again on our last night in the hotel for it just beside the theater where the chinese acrobatic is being shown.

very good hotel, good location, friendly staff”

enjoyed my stay. room was spacious and clean. hotel is close to shopping and easy to get to. hotel breakfast is very good, but expensive. hotel has wifi (one of the few to offer this. got a great rate and would stay there again.

Excellent location, nice rooms and friendly staff”

I arrived late and found that my room had been double booked. Not a problem though as they upgraded me for free. The staff were helpful in answering my questions and at giving basic directions. They also had quite a good level of english. The room itself was clean and well furnished. The beds were quite firm but probably softer than a lot of others in china. PS. I got this hotel at a discount price on agoda which is why the value for money rating is 5/5. Also the rating for the food is only 3/5 as I did not eat at the hotel, although the restaurant menus looked very nice.

Clean, spacious hotel with responsive service”

some friends and i stayed here over the national holiday. we were pleased with the cleanliness, and decently sized rooms. when we asked for a mattress pad (beds were hard- just like all the other ones in china!) we received one within 10 minutes. the hotel was very quick in their responses to our requests. we did have a problem with a tour that we purchased through them. we were told we'd have twice the amount of time we actually did have at the great wall. however, we complained and they responded by sending a car to pick us up at whatever time we wanted. the gym and pool were also closed. i will highly recommend this hotel to my friends.

locationally convenient hotel”

the hotel is located near the tourist spots. it is also easy to access to shopping centers as well as cafes and restaurants. i had a great time in walking, drinking, watching happy people, and eating around the hotel in nights. it is also very near to the metro station. the hotel is of high standard. the decoration and meeting rooms are also wonderful.

Good convenient stay”

It was pleasant. Basic rooms, but clean. Staff was friendly, but the bed was rather hard.

A very average stay (and that's being generous)”

It was at the very most average. The room felt old and dingy. You had to pay to use the hair dryer. The staff had a very hard time speaking English. I only had to stay for a night, but if my stay was longer I'm sure I would have switched hotels.

This hotel is not in the mail poly plaza!”

This hotel is NOT in the same poly plaza hotel building.. It's a separate building next to it. I wouldn't even call it a hotel, it's more like a hostel. If you are only after a cheap night stay in SanLiTun area, and don't mind the small room, nosy surroundings, smokey smell, rude guests, dirty bed sheets the list goes on and on.. If you can afford a little bit extra, I would strongly recommend to stay at the main ploy plaza building. Or one of the Chain hotels around the same area!

Discounted rate is actually rack rate”

Economy room is right. Building B is located on the parking lot not the main buildings you see on the picture. No elevator so it is not handicap friendly, upside there are only 4 floors. Hairdryers have to be requested from front desk. And the discounted room rate is the actual rack rate so no discount at all. It has cctv cameras but there is no one on the front desk, anybody can just walk in and out. Check in and check out has to be done at the main hotel.

Cheap room basic”

The room I was given was in de secondary building, had no elevator however, was very cheap compared to the other prices. And I just needed a private room for a one day stay. The room was great for this , had a/c that worked great and had internet (although not WIFI but via cable). Just expect the basics and no fuzz then this is good for you a second building room

acceptable room size, but old ”

i was not impressed with the quality of the room in this hotel. i had to change my room 3 times in one noght. the safe box is very old type and in 2 of the rooms i stayed in was not working. front desk pesonnel were friendly, but they chaged my credit card towice and took them a month to return my money back. in general, it is acceptable hotel but not worth the money. the hotel is ranked as 5 star hotel and i certainly dissagree with it.

Good Location but poor interent”

this was a nice hotel with good rooms. i would have liked it better if agoda, or the hotel itself had informed me that the hotel is actually located in the poly theater because i was looking for a different building than the theater building. there was no signage that the hotel was actually located in the same building and this made it difficult to find. also, i would have liked to have had the chinese characters for the address, instead of the english because taxi drivers do not read english and it is difficult to find someone that can speak and read english to translate into chinese. also, there is no internet in the rooms (wifi) and i had to go to the lobby of the theater to use the internet. in the lobby there is no place to sit so i had to stand while i was online.

Good location - exactly on a subway”

Poly plaza is a nice place to stay for a people who like culture. One part of hotel is a theatre with a music hall so often there are held concerts. Chinese but also foriners can find something suitable for them! But odcourse swimming was out of service during chinese new year...

Great location with standard rooms”

very good location, very convenient with the subway to reach the most sightseeing and shopping areas. can reach one of the popular night life spot "san li tun" by feet. many good restaurants around the hotel.
