Sofu Hotel

Upon arrival at the hotel staff were friendly and spoke english, which I found as a rare positive in the area, The room was spacious, and provided every essential required for a stay, Staff were very helpful and provided directions to subways, ATMs, and food options. Hotel is located on a popular tourist/food street, and has quick access to all essentials required by travellers.

Due to being on a busy tourist/food street, foot & road traffic can be quite loud during late/early hours, my room directly looked out onto the street and sound was quite bad. Surprisingly to me as well, the hotel did not have the facilities to exchange currency, having to direct me to the closest ATM to get local currency.

The Sofu hotel is located in the old Hutong area, few minutes away from subway station. The staff at the reception was very helpfull and speaking good english. They helped us with reservation for visiting the Great Wall, they arranged airport Taxi transfer, and tickets for acrobat show. They really did their best. The rooms was comfortable and spotless.
