The hotel is so convenient for spending a night near airport if you have a flight. Even if it is near, it is so quite, you can't hear plane noise. I got a room with a view on that river, it was spectacular, especially early morning. I really love the hotel. So clean.The breakfast also was good. If you have a long day you may take a didi to go to mall nearby (30min).

FAQs about hotels in Beijing

From Chinese Dynasties to Cultural Dynamics

A world-renowned gem, sprawling Beijing has magnificent monuments and peaceful parks. At its heart is the world’s largest square - Tiananmen, surrounded by important museums and the amazing Forbidden City. This 15th-century, walled complex of palaces neighbours Jingshan Park and Beihai Park with its imperial garden.

Opposite Tiananmen Square is the ultra-modern National Centre for Perfoming Arts, a beacon of the city’s culture so impressively displayed at the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Beijing Olympics in the Bird’s Nest Stadium.

To its east is the UNESCO World-Heritage listed Summer Palace, a lakeside retreat of emperors, while also UNESCO listed is the grand Temple of Heaven in Chongwen district, where remnants of Ming dynasty city walls are visible. Nearby are several hutongs, narrow alleys whose traditional architecture contrasts with wider, modern roads including Beijing Financial Street, the city's business area.

The most popular Beijing shopping street is Wangfujing, and other must-see sights include the giant pandas at Beijing Zoo and the Great Wall of China, an easy day trip from Beijing.

As you would expect from the capital of the world’s most populous country, there are a good number of 5-star hotels in Beijing on Booking.com, mainly in the Dongcheng and Chaoyang districts. There are also several hotels near Beijing Capital Airport in the north-east.

There are places in this city which are guaranteed to blow your mind, such as the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven, the Summer Palace, and the Lama Temple. Traffic in Beijing is terrible but luckily the subway is superb. And did I mention the food? So tasty and healthy!

Stunning Architecture and World Heritage sites all well-...

Stunning Architecture and World Heritage sites all well-managed for visitors, such as shuttles, tickets, toilets and no-smoking policy. A major drawback that this city should improve is the smoking areas. People can smoke freely on the streets, which negatively affects those with respiratory problems and children. This makes our city walks less enjoyable. In addition, many locals tend to spit on the streets, which is another issue that should be addressed.

An amazing city - probably doesn't need more than a 5 day...

An amazing city - probably doesn't need more than a 5 day trip. A day-long excursion to the Great Wall of China is a must (hire a driver rather than spending 2 hours on a bus) and get there early to beat the queues for the chairlift up and toboggan down. Starting early is important most days as there are SO many tourists (mostly Chinese) at all the major sights. If you're there longer - consider going to a hot springs (onsen) and choose one that the locals use (we went to one in the Fengtai area) and taking a day trip to another city (we took the high speed train to Tianjin which was fun). The Temple of Heaven was better than the Summer Palace (IMHO) and Beijing Zoo was dismal - only go if you absolutely MUST see the pandas. Get a good VPN before you travel and stay connected to this to be able to use Instagram and WhatsApp. Set up AliPay with your payment details before you go - we didn't use cash once in a week and AliPay lets you book taxis, pay for the metro, pay in shops and pay individuals directly. It's essential. Consider getting WeChat too - people in China use this instead of Whatsapp. Carry your passport with you at all times - you'll need it everywhere - including spot checks in metro stations etc. Have a great trip!

Every traveler should definitely download the Alipay app in advance, which includes English translation. The app is the easiest way to pay, take the subway, order a taxi, or rent a bike. The first steps are a bit difficult, but once you get it up and running, it makes traveling in Beijing incredibly easy. In many cases, this is the only way to pay, cash is extremely rare. Your passport is requested at almost every attraction and must be scanned, often even on the way out. It's not worth going anywhere without it. They speak English in hotels, but in restaurants, often not anymore. Most taxi drivers, vendors, and waiters communicate with a translation program, which works quite well.

The staff were courteous and went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable, and provided impeccable service down to details such as providing a warm water bottle every night for our use in warming the beds during the cold winter days - something we did not expect at all, but were so grateful for. The location was also great, being located within walking distance of Wangfujing. The ambience of the hotel was calming and relaxing. I'm sure I'll be back if I'm ever in Beijing again!

I was only staying in Beijing on a short stopover so wanted a hotel that was convenient and comfortable rather than a more characterful choice. The room was spacious, modern and spotlessly clean with good facilities (fridge, safe, working desk, great AC, etc). The bed was especially comfortable and the bathroom was well equipped too. The location was convenient for a short stay close to the airport train station. The breakfast buffet was vast and covered a range of tastes.

Comfortable room. Very pleasant, helpful and nice staff. Fantastic location. For us it was the perfect spot to stay in Beijing. We unfortunately got some very bad news while we were there, my mom passed away unexpectedly, and we had to cut out trip to China short. We are planning a new trip this August and are hoping to stay at Sunworld Dynasty hotel again.

Great location for seeing Beijing's main spots, super accessible to the rest of the city via metro (10 mins from room to platform). Huge rooms if not slightly outdated (like most upscale hotels in China) but a very grand hotel overall at a respectable price point.
