北京四合院賓館 - 北京

此次体验老北京巷弄胡同的住宿生活，整体上还不错，但距大路边太遠，重裝会很累，因为胡同内出租車不太喜欢进，建议还是輕裝较適宜，且搭地铁也方便。

浴室水很小, 很難調整到剛好的水溫

Great stay in a traditional Chinese Courtyard hotel.

We stayed 7 nights in a standard room. We definitely like the Sihe and Chinese style of the hotel. The room was not too big, just enough for two people. All the furnitures were in Chinese style. The washroom wass better than I expected. It's clean and newly renovated. The bed was huge and comfy. The housekeeper helped us to tidy up the room almost everyday. However, the hotel was under renovation during our stay, so it was a bit noisy outside. Just a 10-minute walk, there are two metro stations. It easy to find local restaurants, supermarkets, cage and shops on the main street. The breakfast place was too cold and they didn't put on the heating and the choice of breakfast was limited, only congee, toast, coffee and tea. Overall, we were happy for our stay.

I stayed at this lovely courtyard hotel during my recent Beijing visit. This hotel was the former home of the famed Beijing Opera Singer, Mei Lan Fan. The building is 400-years old and its architecture reflects that period. It is a charming place where you could imagine how the Mandarins lived back then. The hotel is located in a Hutong (alley), and can be difficult to locate if Beijing is new to you. It is located south of Dongsi subway station (Beijing Subway). You need to walk along Dongsi South St. after exiting the subway station. The Hutong is the 4th alley intersecting Dongsi South St. from Dongsi subway station. Turn left into that 4th alley (Deng Cao Hutong), and walk about 150m. There are 2 large red lanterns hanging above the hotel front entrance. The neighborhood is quaint, and quiet by 9 p,m, The housekeeping is excellent. This service is provided daily (no need to display "housekeeping needed" sign). My room has a relatively large bathroom which was nice. Laundry turnaround time is excellent. Many thanks to Zheng Li Hong who handled my laundry. The breakfast buffet is adquate. I enjoyed their pot-stickers and bean-paste buns. Freshly squeezed orange juice and coffee were available. Contrary to other reviews, I find it was easy to communicate in English with the front desk staff. Overall, I enjoyed my stay at this hotel. I do recommend it to adventurous travelers who prefer a unique cultural and historical experience.
