A unique experience in an authentic and original Beijing Hutong house that enriched our China adventure. The staff were helpful and always present. The rooms were quaint, and as such not the most comfortable, but that probably added to the authentic experience. The rooms could have been cleaner. All in all, it was an unforgettable experience.

We just spent three nights at the Red Capital Residence and it was a wonderful experience. The hotel is not a five star luxury property, but that is not why you stay here. It feels like olden day China, yet you are only walking distance from the new shops, restaurants and subway. We had a few issues with a cold... More

This hotel, in an old courtyard residence that once belonged to Mao's minister of defense, is for those who want some adventure in their travel experience. The setting is mostly original and authentic, not for those who want to feel like they could be anywhere in the world in a cookie cutter luxury hotel that insulates you from the local... More

The Red Capital gave us a taste of the 'old china'. It was very atmospheric and passing through the large red doors you felt a sense of travelling into the past. We were staying there during the 60th celebrations of the PRC. We had an amazing time and the Red Capital added to our experience. It is NOT a luxury... More

During our honey moon for which we traveled from Moscow to Beijing on the train, we chose this hotel to finish the journey. We have been very happy with our stay there.

We were in Beijing for recent weekend trip, and decided to stay here because we had read good reviews and wanted an "atmospheric" place. We had the West Concubine Suite. Unfortunately, we found many problems with the place: room is poorly lit, furnishings are old and coming apart (eg curtains coming off the hook, canopy on the bed looked like... More

I stayed at the Red Capital Residence twice over the course of July 2008 in Beijing. My first visit to the boutique hotel was incredible. I was put up in Chairman Mao Suite and I just loved the environs of the place. The location, though hard to find, really puts you in the heart of historic Beijing. The decor is... More

We spent six nights at the red capital residence during the olympics. Its not a hotel without warts, but for someone looking for something very different from an international hotel I think it rocks. To be honest I generally stay in the four seasons when I go on holiday and the red capital is a far cry from the perfect... More
