Dry nice family run small hotel. Right by Forbidden city. Old Beijing area. Hotel located in the quiet lane. Owners are very friendly and speak English. Gave great suggestions on the vegetarian restaurants around. The hotel is basically their home. We stayed upstairs - large room, old, very old shower but otherwise good budget hotel.

ちょっとホテルまでの道はわかりにくいかもしれませんので、私が通った道について書き残しておきます。ちなみに筆談で、道を聞く場合ですが「天安门怡尔商务会馆」こっちを使ったほうが中国人の方は読みやすいと思います。 最寄り駅は地下鉄1号線「天安門東駅」です。B出口から出ます。そうしたら天安門とは逆方向、王府井方向へ歩きます。そうすると南池子と書かれた門が出てきますので、門をくぐります。そのまま南池子大街を故宮の方向すなわち、北に向かって歩きます。この時に、進行方向右側にある歩道を歩くと良いかと思います。歩いていくと、公衆トイレなどを通り過ぎ、「汉庭酒店」というホテルが出てきますのでもう少し通り過ぎます。ちょっと通り過ぎると左側に「北京特産超市」等と書かれたお店が見えますので、その向かい側の細い路地へ入ります。夜は街頭で照らされています。歩いていくと右側に木の看板に「怡尔会館」と書かれた表札が出てきます。そこに入り、右側に２つの黒い看板があるのでその間の扉をくぐって奥に入るとフロントがあります。なお、中国国内ではGoogleマップは使い物にならないので百度地図をインストールしておくことをお勧めします。このホテルもしっかり載っています。 フロントでパスポートを提示し、チェックインします。家族経営なのかわかりませんが、とても温かく迎えてくれます。ちなみに、従業員の方々はとても英語が上手いです。 清や明の時代を思い起こされる家具や部屋の造りが印象的でした。ベッドメイキングは毎日してくれます。コンセントは日本と同じ形のものが使えます。飲み物の販売はあるようですが、食事はつきません。ただし、王府井が徒歩１０分程度のところにありますので、夕食に行ってみるのもいいかもしれないです。朝ご飯はあまりお店がやっていないようですが、FamilyMartやマクドナルドなども王府井にはありますので、大丈夫かと思います。 天安門や中国国家博物館、故宮博物院まではおおむね徒歩１０分以内です。また、天安門広場が近いので、早朝の国旗掲揚も見ることができます。 なお、深夜０時には扉が閉まるようですので、それより前に到着することをお勧めします。

最寄り駅は北京市地下鉄1号線天安門東駅です。天安門東駅のB出口を出て、王府井方向つまり、天安門広場とは逆向きに歩きます。東長安街という大きな通りを歩いていくと「南池子」という門が見えてきますのでその門をくぐります。

Charming slice of old Beijing near Tian Anmen

This is a very small, privately-owned suite of rooms off of one of the Beijing hutongs near the Forbidden City. Very friendly staff. Not easy to find. 10 min walk to Tian An Men Square. If you want to experience old Beijing, this is a good experience for you. A small number of rooms surround a nice open space with tables and chairs. You will have everything you need (wi-fi, TV, shower), but not a luxury hotel. No breakfast. It's a good way to support local businesses and to see the inside of Beijing in a way you won't if you go to a larger international hotel. I recommend it.

close to forbidden city but still over priced

Pictures on line are very out dated but bed was clean and shower was good. hotel was in very old part of town and taxi had hard time finding in dark. Had to venture down dark alley with bags would not recommend to female travelers alone but us as a couple it was ok but little over priced for condition and area.

親切的飯店人員

cp值算不錯,美中不足就是如果客滿熱水就會不足，然後太靠近天安門了，所以晚上有些出租車無法直接開去飯店，但是因為靠近天安門所以治安很好，晚點回飯店也不必擔心，四合院的感覺很特別

很差的酒店

暖氣不夠暖，通風系統很差，只要其它房有人抽煙，就會有很大的一股煙味透過通風系統傳進房間裡，提供的熱水只熱一會兒，在零下的氣溫裡，我和孩子洗了個冷死人的冷水澡。

Xiao was very nice and spoke perfect English. We didn't want a western type of hotel and that's what we got, a typical Chinese hotel inside the forbidden city! Not for everybody only for those with an open mind willing to try new experiences.

perfekte Lage, in der Nähe von U-Bahn, Tiananmen Platz und verbotene Stadt. Etwas schwierig zu finden weil ein wenig zurückliegend. Wunderschöne Innenhof. Freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Man spricht gut englisch. Beim eventuellen nächsten Besuch werde ich bestimmt wieder dieses Hotel wählen.

愛上這所胡同

我不是第一次入住這所胡同，已是連續第二年入住的。因為我想靠近故宮及天安門東地鐵站，到我想到的景點較為方便。胡同周圍環境很安全，食店林立，而且交通十分方便，價錢合理，員工又非常友善。因此明年再到北京旅遊，我會再次選擇這所胡同。

Travelers Beware! Do not stay here!

Easily the worst hotel I have ever stayed at in my life and throughout my months of being in China. They advertise breakfast and free wifi? They have neither of these things. coffee maker? none. Free toiletries in the "luxury honeymoon suite"? More like half used bottles of shampoo and pellets of soap. The towels were mismatched and ragged with other hotel's embroidered logos on them! I arrived to a hotel in disarray and was FILTHY. Does not look anything like the advertised pictures. My room had no windows in it (unless you count the giant hole in the bathroom ceiling that was open to the outdoors). There were used tissues on the desk and trash in the bins in the room. The bathroom was disgusting and the shower was covered in mold (did I mention NO shower drain?). Under no circumstances would i recommend this to any traveler, no matter how "rugged" or "basic" your travel hotel requirements are. It became very clear during my stay that this in fact a family home that simply has a few rooms for rent. I was the only guest during my stay (NOW i know why!). This hotel is located on a back alley (not where the above map suggests the location is) and is not in a tourist friendly place. I did not feel safe taking my shoes off in the hotel room due to the bathroom. The sink faucet was broken and required you to pry the handle to turn on the sink. I wish there was a way for me to upload pictures of what this hotel REALLY looks like now.

Location, Location

Hotel is really ok. Of course, what you pay for is 70% for the location. Speaking of location as of April 2015 the location given in Google Maps and thus hotels.com is quite wrong. Obviously it is NOT behind Tiananmen Gate.... Search Tiananmen East station, from there go north on Nachizi Street (sometimes called South Chizi Street), and walk straight for some time until you can turn right into Denglongku Hutong/Pudusi Front Alley (that is when on the left in your walking direction on Nachizi you see the JingDu Hostel) It is really easy, and the courtyard of this hotel is quite cosy. So it should be worth it :) Also, nice staff.

verkehrsgünstige Lage

verkehrsgünstige Lage nur wenige 100 m von Tiananmen Platz und Verbotene Stadt entfernt. Achtung: die Positionsangabe in hotels.com ist nicht korrekt, der Hutong, in dem das Hotel liegt, ist in Wirklichkeit etwas weiter östlich (Denglong Ku Hutong ist in einer kleinen Seitenstraße, die östlich abgeht von der South Chizi St - South Chizi St ist jene Straße, die am Ostrand der Verbotenen Stadt entlang führt). Hotelzimmer sind angeordnet um ein verglastes, überdachtes Atrium. Nettes, zuvorkommendes, englischsprachiges Personal.

Does not fall below expectation

Considering the proximity of the hotel to Tian An Men and the Forbidden City, this hotel is OK if you don't mind the somewhat spartan room.
