The Hulu Hotel Beijing

Top Romantic Hotel

Pros: Location OK, 5-7 min to the metro station Easy access to shopping malls, Tiananmen and the Forbidden City

Cons: Could have been a little bit more clean

Pros: Super nice rooftop terrace; good location, very quiet at night (except if you have loud hotel neighbors as walls are quite thin); helpful staff

Cons: No fridge (should be standard with such temperatures in Summer); equipment basic; relatively expensive as you also easily find 5* hotel rooms for that price

Pros: bed extra comfy, good location

Cons: relatively strong musky/moldy smell in the room upon entering the room

Pros: Hotel was in a very central location and an easy walk to subway stations, restaurants and shops. The staff were generally helpful, and understood enough English to help with telephone bookings and ...

Cons: The water pressure in the shower could have been better.

Pros: Very quiet, easy to walk to major sites, untouristy neighbourhood, easy public transit access, cute rooms

Cons: Hotel charged me in my home currency at checkout at an inflated rate, rather than in RMB as I had indicated on the visa slip. Cost me an additional 25CAD. Not a huge amount but it's the principle.

Pros: Location. Convenience. Bed's comfort. Movies in English, Breakfast. Positives outweigh the bad.

Cons: Dust in April, slightly mouldy smell from lack of airing in bathroom in arrival... But soon cleared after
