The fact that it's a court side hotel was a factor that I choose this hotel. BUT WHAT A MISTAKE. The room was not clean at all, ok Chinese cleanliness is not like ours, but this was awful. I had a top floor room which the temperature came to 28C. the dust was everywhere. The shower door did not close.... More

The older staffs had little English, but were happy to refer to the young couple who are in charge. The hotel is close to everything;... More

Tiananmen Best Year has a great location just a few minutes on foot from the Forbidden City and the Tiananmen Square. The hotel is located in a hutong which is very nice. The cleanliness of the room was good. The bed was soft and nice - unusual in China. The interior was ancient Chinese style with a beautiful bed and... More

Staff spoke English very well and were very helpful with things to do. Airport transfer from the airport can be arranged (cost extra). Location was excellent, about a 10 minute walk from Tiananmen Square with lots of restaurants around. The hostel itself was very cute, with an authentic Chinese feel. Rooms were centred around the common-area courtyard, so there was... More

We stayed at this hotel at the start of a two week vacation that ended in South East Asia and echo the comments from the last post. Joey and the rest of the staff were nothing short of amazing and even walked us a few kilometers to a post office. Very attentive and polite and spoke English fairly well. Location... More

My son and I spent 5 nights at the Tiananmen Best year Courtyard Hotel and recommend it highly. The staff was exceptional, helping us find a bank to convert our money, directions to subway and Great Wall tour. Our room was great and the location was superb. The only glitch was arriving near midnight and a taxi driver who wanted... More

Am surprise to find this hotel listed in Tripadvisor. I sourced out this hotel during my backpack trip to Beijing and never regret staying here. Preserved from the ancient structure with a touch of modern fittings (glass windows, aircon etc) and the exterior outlook is exactly what you see in those drama serials. Rooms are adequately spacious for two, and... More

Steps to Forbidden palace, night market and Tiananmen square. I liked the courtyard style, it was quiet but doors/walls were thin. There was internet terminal and staff was very helpful. They helped me with the Great Wall tour and even make tea for you. Oner
