Is Beijing Safe for a Solo Traveller? Scams, Costs and Five Days Alone in the Capital
Oleh LEO
14 Oktober 2026
Beijing carries a reputation it has not earned. The stories visitors bring home are rarely about crime. They are about tea, and a ¥3,000 bill that lands forty minutes after a stranger walks you into a teahouse near Wangfujing.
Is Beijing safe for a solo traveller?
Yes, and the numbers hold up. Numbeo's index, updated on 8 October 2026, scores Beijing 74.57 for safety against 25.43 for crime. Violent crime sits at 19.71, which it files under very low. The city's public security bureau reports a homicide rate near 0.5 per 100,000 residents, and the US State Department keeps China at Level 2 as of 4 September 2026.
What you notice on the ground is supervision. Police booths stand in every district, and the camera grid is among the densest anywhere. Riding the subway at rush hour is routine. So is walking back to your hotel at 11pm. The score for walking alone after dark is 71.29, inside the high band.
Plan for your wallet, not your body. Violent crime is not what you organise a Beijing trip around.

The scams that actually catch tourists
Every one of them begins the same way. Someone friendly picks you out in a crowded, touristy spot.
Scam | Where it runs | How to shut it down |
|---|---|---|
Tea-house invite | Wangfujing, Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square | Decline outright. Bills reach ¥1,000 to ¥5,000 |
Art student gallery | 798 Art District, National Art Museum | Keep walking. Real galleries do not recruit on the pavement |
Black cab (hei che) | PEK and PKX arrivals, station forecourts | Use the official taxi rank or DiDi. A legal Beijing plate starts with 京B |
Fake Great Wall shuttle | Flyers near Qianmen | Book the bus or train yourself, or pre-arrange a car |
Fake monk donation | Outside temples | Ignore them. Genuine monks do not solicit on the street |
The rule that closes all five: never follow a stranger to a second location. The habit that helps most is booking through an app, because DiDi agrees the fare before the car moves.
Is Beijing safe for a solo woman?
Notably so, for structural reasons rather than luck: busy, lit streets late into the night and constant camera coverage. Women jog alone along the Liangma River past midnight.
Two caveats. The tea-house scam leans hardest on solo visitors, because nobody beside you will say no. Book a female-only dorm, and skip unlit side hutongs after dark.
A five-day solo itinerary
Day 1: the central axis
Start at Tiananmen Square, free but needing a real-name, time-slotted reservation one to seven days ahead. The Forbidden City costs ¥60 from April to October and ¥40 from November to March, shuts every Monday, and releases tickets at 8pm Beijing time exactly seven days out. Cross to Jingshan Park for the roofline.
Day 2: temples and museums
Give the morning to the Temple of Heaven on the ¥34 combo ticket, then the National Museum, free but booking-only. Walk Qianmen Street and Dashilar, then finish at Shichahai for the lake at night.
Day 3: Mutianyu, the quieter wall
Pick Mutianyu over Badaling, where crowds are lighter and a cable car does the climbing. Budget about ¥195, covering ¥40 entry, ¥15 shuttle and the ¥140 return cable car. Shuttles leave Dongzhimen. A weekday beats a weekend by a wide margin.
Day 4: gardens and contemporary art
The Summer Palace combo ticket is ¥60 and worth a half day. Give the rest of the day to 798 Art District, which costs nothing to wander through, and the final hour to the Lama Temple.
Day 5: hutongs, or roller coasters
Walk Nanluoguxiang, climb the Bell and Drum Towers, loop back through the lakes. Swap it for Universal Studios Beijing if rides beat history. Dated tickets run ¥418 to ¥748.

Flights from Malaysia, and the airport transfer
Direct Kuala Lumpur flights land at Beijing Daxing (PKX). Malaysia Airlines MH318 leaves at 23:40 and arrives at 06:00, and AirAsia X D7 342 runs 18:50 to 01:05. The hop takes about six hours over 4,351km, and Beijing shares Malaysia's UTC+8 clock.
Return fares start near RM954, and AirAsia X singles begin around RM522. September (RM576) and January (RM573) are the cheapest months for a one-way, while February jumps to RM1,056 when Chinese New Year peaks.
From PKX, the Daxing Express reaches Caoqiao in 19 minutes for ¥35, and a taxi costs ¥160 to ¥220. From PEK the Airport Express is ¥25. Compare options on the Beijing airport guide, and check dates on Kuala Lumpur to Beijing tickets.

Absolutely stunning hotel
The hotel staff were incredibly helpful and the decor was absolutely stunning. It really does look just like the photos.
Its also easy walking distance to Wangfujing shopping street, to multiple subway lines, and to the Forbidden City. Dozens of food options right across the street too, but also several in-house restaurants and room service.
Our room was spotlessly clean, the air was fresh and clean, and the housekeeping cleaned up and replaced our towels and amenities daily.
The gym was very well equipped with commercial gym standard equipment - it doesnt open til 7am though. The swimming pool area was also lovely though we were too busy exploring Beijing and never got a chance to swim in it!
We would both, most definitely, stay with Legendale again and would thoroughly recommend to others, too. It was an absolute pleasure to stay there. We only wish we had stayed for a bit longer.DariTWD 4,918

I was very satisfied with my stay this time! The hotel's location is very convenient; I didn't have to go far for transportation or dining. The room was spotlessly clean, the bedding was soft, and the soundproofing was good, so I had a peaceful night's sleep. The front desk staff, especially Chance, provided warm and thoughtful service, efficiently handling check-in and check-out, and patiently answering any questions. The public areas were clean and impressive, and the facilities were well-maintained. Overall, it offered great value for money, with no disappointments. It's suitable for both short trips and business stays. I've already recommended it to my friends and will definitely choose Sofitel Beijing Central （Accor） again next time I'm in the area. It's truly worth staying!DariTWD 3,602

Considering its location, service, management, dining, facilities, and price, this is a very reliable hotel. It's free from excessive fanfare and superficial gimmicks. Communication, from the front desk staff to the lobby manager and even management, is smooth and efficient, with a low communication cost. The room decor and facilities aren't new, but they are perfectly adequate for business travelers and families. The hotel is equipped with an indoor pool and gym, which is very friendly for those who like to exercise while traveling. The breakfast selection and taste are very practical, and overall, my experience was great. I hope the hotel continues to uphold its commitment to brand and quality.DariTWD 1,907

This hotel offers pretty good value for money, with an excellent location and affordable prices. While the facilities are a bit old, they are well-maintained. However, the customer service and the female front desk staff were quite subpar. They were unwilling to offer room upgrades or late check-outs, which was disappointing. I hope they improve, as it would be a shame to waste such a great location and the efforts of most of the other staff members.DariTWD 3,803

Opting for the New Otani Chang Fu Gong for my Beijing trip was a great choice; the overall stay was consistently excellent and thoughtful, truly reflecting the quality of a seasoned high-end hotel.
The service was warm and meticulous. Every day, they'd leave Beijing specialty snacks in the room – classic local pastries and treats. Coming back after a day of sightseeing to these delightful surprises was incredibly heartwarming.
The breakfast was of a high standard, with a rich variety of choices, and a distinct Japanese flair. The tender omelets, crispy capelin, and exquisite Japanese pastries were all authentically prepared. At the same time, Chinese and Western hot dishes, breads, congees, cold cuts, and braised meats were all available, catering to different tastes.
The view from the breakfast restaurant was a particular highlight. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, you could see a serene courtyard: a neatly trimmed lawn, a rock garden pond, and even white geese leisurely strolling about. The garden scenery was elegant and comfortable. Enjoying breakfast while taking in the view really helped me slow down and relax.
The guest room was clean and spacious, with a well-organized layout and good natural light, making for a relaxed and unconfined stay. The overall service was on point, and the breakfast was outstanding. I highly recommend this hotel for accommodation in Beijing.DariTWD 3,160

The apex of Beijing, where the true heart of luxury beats!
— A perfect stay at Kerry Hotel Beijing from July 25th-26th
If Beijing is a flowing feast, then the Guomao CBD is its most dazzling stage, and Kerry Hotel Beijing sits right in the center of it.
During this stay, I truly experienced what it means to “be amidst the bustle, yet privately enjoy luxury.” Arriving on the afternoon of the 25th, from the moment I stepped into the lobby, that grand sense of tranquility isolated me from the noise outside the window. The room was super spacious, and the floor-to-ceiling window offered an unparalleled city skyline view, with the CCTV Headquarters (the 'big trousers') and China Zun tower side-by-side. That feeling of having the imperial capital at your feet instantly made the room rate worthwhile!
I must particularly praise the Kerry Club Lounge on the 18th floor! It was truly the highlight of my entire stay! The service from Ms. Lucy, Clara, and Seanna was simply delightful, making me feel incredibly welcome. The lounge's food, whether afternoon tea or evening happy hour, offered such a vast variety that it was hard to choose. The breakfast at 'Jia Pin Restaurant' on the morning of the 26th absolutely won me over—there were 7 ways to prepare eggs alone, plus fresh grapefruit. These kinds of details are truly a huge plus!
Although I know this hotel is a representative of the 'old money' opened in 1999, the facilities are incredibly well-maintained. That sense of profound grandeur, refined by the passage of time, is a quality new hotels simply cannot replicate. The gym and heated swimming pool are top-tier for hotels in China, with huge spaces and comprehensive equipment. Even just a swim feels like a luxury.
My two-day journey in the heart of luxury left me wanting more. Not only is the location unbeatable, but the service and dining are also exceptional! This is definitely the most 'aristocratic' hotel I've stayed at in Beijing, second to none! ♥️DariTWD 4,591

Facilities: I chose a windowless non-smoking room. The size is decent, and the facilities are quite complete. This hotel has several Chinese and Western restaurants, so dining is quite convenient.
Hygiene: The hotel's hygiene is good; it's relatively clean. I specifically chose a non-smoking room. Because it's windowless, the room is equipped with an air purifier.
Environment: It's very close to my workplace, only about two or three hundred meters away. The environment is good.

🌟 Heartfelt hospitality in the heart of Beijing! Special thanks to Mike Wong and Hanson Wang for an unforgettable stay!Our stay at Peace Hotel Beijing (Forbidden City) left us with the warmest and most unforgettable impressions. The hotel is incredibly well-located right in the center of Beijing, within walking distance of the main attractions, making our sightseeing trips exceptionally convenient and easy.A special highlight was the lounge on the 19th floor where the club dinners are held. Dining with a glass of wine while enjoying the breathtaking, majestic view of the Forbidden City and Jingshan Park is an unparalleled pleasure! The atmosphere there is truly magical.However, the most valuable and outstanding feature of this hotel is how they treat their guests. We experienced not just a high standard of service, but genuine love, warmth, and true, deep hospitality that is so rare to find these days.We arrived at the hotel very early — at 8:00 AM, exhausted from our journey, and were mentally prepared to wait hours for check-in. To our amazement, we were not only greeted with a smile, but were given a room immediately, saving us from tedious waiting!I would like to express my deepest and most sincere gratitude to Mike Wong and Hanson Wang. They took incredible care of our family. Mike personally showed us two excellent rooms to choose from, helping us patiently and politely. The room we fell in love with on the 17th floor was instantly handed over to us.It is because of such dedicated, caring, and professional employees like Mike Wong and Hanson Wang that the brand builds its flawless positive image, making guests want to return over and over again. I highly recommend that the hotel management recognizes both Mike's and Hanson's outstanding dedication and awards them a well-deserved bonus or promotion.

It’s a very good hotel located in ideal location . It’s very near to forbidden city which is just few streets away. Many restaurants located nearby, like Si Ji Min Fu Peking Duck. You could get help from the hotel to get the queue number and waiting at the hotel room before your turn. It’s really save a lot of time. The daily breakfast was good , just that the serving plates or cups were found cracked or chipped , the hotel still use that for serving customers during breakfast .We were given free drink voucher and you gotta to get the voucher from the service counter daily. Free laundry and free robot delivery service . As there’s only one robot for food delivery to room, and during peak hour , you might need to go down to collect the food at the hotel counter yourself . And the room cleaning service is awesome and they helped us to clean the baggage and left us a message in sticky note when the job’s done. Kudos to the dedicated room cleaner. Many local Beijing snacks and cold drinks are served at the hotel lobby and they are free. When we’re checked out , we’re given a small free goodie bag to bring back home.DariTWD 2,637

1. **Check-in:** The check-in process was inefficient. They strictly enforce the 2 PM check-in time, and there was a very long line with only two front desk staff members. It got even slower when foreign guests were checking in. It wasn't even that crowded during the National Day holiday.
2. **Room:** The room was very spacious. We booked a mountain-view room, and since we had kids, we had to push the beds together. Due to the bed design, there was a huge gap at the headboard, so next time we'll have to request bed guards. The glass was quite old, and the buttons in the room weren't very responsive. With two children, we were missing children's toiletries, slippers, and bathrobes, which had to be sent up separately. Shower gel and other amenities were only available in specific kids' rooms. It would be better if they provided slippers for the hot spring area next time; the disposable ones were quite slippery.
3. **Hotel Activities:** During the National Day holiday, there were activities every morning and afternoon, which the kids really enjoyed. Some required an extra charge. I'd recommend registering for the activities when you actually participate to get the discount (I used up my registration slot early by using the link over Wi-Fi the day before, which used up my mobile data).
4. **Water Park:** The room indicated complimentary tickets for two adults and one child. 'Child' means under 120cm, which is already free, so the hotel giving another 'complimentary' ticket felt a bit redundant. There are three pools in total. The largest one had a suitable water temperature, but the two smaller pools were cold. There were children running and playing wildly on the slides, and I suggest staff supervise and remind them to be careful. There are many outdoor hot springs, but one bubble pool was super cold, and the bubbles were covered in dirty mud, with no one cleaning it. There was also a lack of information about the outdoor hot springs; you had to walk to each one to find out the temperature and what kind of spring it was. There was no conditioner in the showers, so I recommend bringing your own.
5. **Kids' Club:** It was quite small, and the provided socks weren't non-slip. The kids played for a bit and then got bored.
6. **Hotel Breakfast:** The wontons were nowhere to be found... but all the bread was delicious! A hot bowl of noodles chased away the autumn chill. The corn porridge was mislabeled as millet porridge. Overall, there wasn't a huge variety of dishes, for example, only two types of cold dishes and two types of fruit.
7. **Service:** Feedback was addressed and handled promptly. The service was super satisfying!DariTWD 2,430

Pros:
1. The hotel is nestled halfway up the mountain, offering fresh air and truly beautiful surroundings. It's a peaceful escape from the city's hustle and bustle, and the hotel's decor and maintenance are quite good. Our butler, Bella, was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful, taking care of every little detail. She met all our needs, making our stay exceptionally comfortable.
2. There's a wide array of facilities and activities, including a mountainside hot spring, indoor pool, Hatha yoga, singing bowl therapy, a gym, and a kids' club. It's perfect for families, and the kids' club is large and newly renovated – it just reopened in May. It's definitely more fun than the kids' clubs at other hotels I've visited. Plus, children aged 4 and up can be supervised for free, which made my little one super happy!
3. The room key card came with a park map, showing hiking trails. There's an easy 5-kilometer mountain boardwalk, perfect for families, where you can visit the Eight Planets viewing platforms.
4. The breakfast was impressive! They had steaks, lamb chops, and a rich variety of both Chinese and Western dishes. However, the cured meats were generally a bit too salty.
Cons:
1. For a 5-star hotel, there was no safe in the room.
2. While there's an abundance of kids' activities, most of them come with a fee.
3. Since the kids' club was newly renovated, the smell was quite strong, making my eyes and throat uncomfortable.
Overall, we were still very satisfied. I imagine it would be even more atmospheric to visit in winter for the hot springs, though I expect it would be extremely crowded.DariTWD 6,560

This hotel is perfect for a family staycation! We chose a twin room and had them combine the beds, and we pre-booked bed rails. The room was comfortable and well-equipped, making it ideal for families with children. The best part is that it's pet-friendly too! The hotel package also included access to iQIYI Kids' Playground and a hot spring. The kids' playground offered unlimited entry on the day of validation, while the hot spring was a one-time entry. There's an indoor water slide, which is great for older children. It was quite busy during the holiday, and the breakfast queue started forming before 9 AM.DariTWD 2,603

Our experience was exceptional. We reserved a Deluxe Room - With View (Balcony) three months in advance. This reservation included a package comprising breakfast for two, a Simatai Great Wall Day Tour Ticket (inclusive of a round-trip cableway ride), a Beijing Wtown Ticket for two, and a Hot Spring Experience Voucher for two. The package proved to be both valuable and perfectly suited to our needs. The reception staff demonstrated remarkable helpfulness, particularly the individual who assisted us with check-in and resolved an issue. His kindness was greatly appreciated, and we remain grateful for his assistance on that day. If I had the opportunity to return, I would certainly choose Wangjing Tower Boutique hotel again. 🫶🏻✨️🍁DariTWD 6,478

Beijing Wtown/The Simatai Great Wall Beijing|111.39km dari pusat bandar
Pros:
1. The hotel is conveniently located near the entrance to Simatai Great Wall. It's easy to access the Wall for hiking, and you can also enjoy views of it from the second floor of the room. The Wall is visible in the distance from the window, making it a secluded retreat away from the hustle and bustle.
2. The hotel offers excellent service. Housekeeping is prompt, and the staff are attentive and welcoming.
3. The duplex suite A is very spacious, perfect for families with elderly members and children. Kids, especially, will love rolling and crawling on the tatami mat.
4. Slippers and bath towels are replaced daily, and complimentary fruit is provided every day.
5. After checking out, I left my headphones in the room. The hotel proactively contacted me and arranged for them to be couriered to me, which I truly appreciate.
Cons:
1. The room is very inconvenient for elderly guests with mobility issues. The main bed is on the second floor, making it difficult for them to go up and down. The first floor has a tatami mat, which makes it hard for elderly guests to get up and lie down. If they need to get up at night, they would definitely need assistance.
2. While the room is large, whether the Japanese wabi-sabi style truly suits Chinese guests, especially for a hotel charging 5,000 yuan per night, is a question that needs consideration. The wabi-sabi aesthetic often translates to very sparse furnishings: no comfortable sofas, no bedside tables, no bedside lamps, and certainly no central control panel for all lights and appliances. The tatami mat essentially means sleeping on the floor with a low table, making it very inconvenient and challenging to get up, sit down, or place and retrieve items, which clashes with Chinese living habits.
3. The private hot spring bath in the room only has one switch for hot water, making it impossible to adjust the temperature. Its size is also awkward; it's fine for one person, but feels cramped for two. For a room type designed for six people, such a small bath is quite inconvenient. Furthermore, the inner wall of the bath is made of solid wood, raising concerns about hygiene.
4. The smart toilet was broken and remained unrepaired even after reporting it.
5. The two bedrooms on the second floor, designed to accommodate at least four people, share a single small bathroom, which is a very impractical design.
Additionally, the entire Gubei Water Town is not suitable for elderly visitors with mobility issues, especially those in wheelchairs. The flagstone paths are very uneven, and there are many steps, which would make a wheelchair ride extremely bumpy and uncomfortable.DariTWD 8,596

For our Mid-Autumn Festival staycation with our 7-month-old baby, we chose the jungle-themed family room at the Kempinski Hotel Beijing Lufthansa Center. Before check-in, our butler, Ms. Silvia, contacted us in advance to arrange a bed rail and connecting beds, and also pre-booked afternoon tea for us. The room was full of childlike charm, and our baby was incredibly curious and captivated by everything. The hotel's lawn was also perfect for playing. The room was clean and hygienic, with a great view, directly overlooking the Liangma River. The staff were enthusiastic, interacting warmly with our baby, and even left small mooncakes during turn-down service. The breakfast, delicatessen, and Paulaner Bräuhaus all offered good quality food. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay!

The lobby is spacious and elegant, instantly providing a sense of calm and relaxation upon entering. The room was comfortable with meticulous attention to detail; the sunlight filtering through the sheer curtains cast beautiful patterns. The 25-meter long swimming pool had excellent water quality and was very quiet. For lunch, we dined at the Yuan Tea House buffet, where the dishes were exquisite.

The Four Seasons Hotel Beijing is the most convenient hotel for US visa interviews, just a 7-8 minute walk away, and only 4 minutes from Liangmaqiao subway station. You can even enjoy views of the Liangma River from your room.
I had some ice cream at the lobby bar on the first floor, and it was absolutely delicious! I also tried the T-bone steak at the Italian restaurant MIO; its design and comfort still hold up today. I had a spa treatment on the 6th floor, though the spa rooms definitely need a renovation!
I particularly want to highlight the hotel's excellent service. A very enthusiastic girl at the front desk (who shares an English name with Eason Chan) was particularly helpful. The room was clean and tidy, and the turndown service was very well done.
However, the room facilities are quite dated, especially the toilet. If they can't replace the toilet, at least a small shelf for phones would be helpful. Also, the bottled water in the room comes in cans, which might look high-class, but it's very inconvenient for women with long nails – I had to use a spoon to open it every time!DariTWD 8,164

The bedding was also fluffy and soft – once I lay down, I didn't want to get up, ensuring a fantastic night's sleep. As soon as I arrived in the lobby, a friendly bellboy warmly greeted me and offered to help with my luggage, his cheerful smile instantly brightening my mood. During my stay, the concierge team, especially Xiao Ban, provided impeccable service. Whether it was helping me book a car, carry luggage, or recommend local restaurants, they were always proactive and service-oriented.

I brought my parents and child to Beijing for the Mid-Autumn Festival. My mom wanted to visit the Temple of Heaven, my dad wanted to eat Chen Ji braised offal, and my child wanted to see the Tyrannosaurus Rex. It was a busy schedule!
The hotel's location is excellent. There's a side entrance less than 20 meters from Dengshikou Subway Station. Dongdan, Wangfujing, and Longfu Temple are all within walking distance. You can city walk and experience the hutongs or go shopping. Famous restaurants like Dongdan Nanmen Shuanrou, Kaorou Liu, and Bianyifang are all conveniently nearby.
As an old five-star hotel, the service is top-notch – attentive but not intrusive, very comfortable and proper. The breakfast has a good variety of freshly made items; the scrambled eggs, beef noodles, and waffles were all delicious. The front desk and concierge staff were all very professional and proactive, quick to respond. They truly deserve praise.
The pool design is also very thoughtful, with a small hot spring pool. In the morning, when the sun shines on it, it's absolutely beautiful. The steps and stone materials around the pool blend seamlessly with the environment.
The family room was originally a corner room with a portable bed added. The portable bed was a bit short and the mattress was soft.
Because the hotel is older, the outlets have been retrofitted. You can also see the effort put into maintenance from the cleanliness and attention to detail. However, the facilities are indeed old; the bathroom door was hard to slide open and close, and the cabinet doors were also worn. It's precisely because of its age that we were able to stay at a hotel with this location and service for this price.

I booked an Executive King Room, and the hotel upgraded me to a suite, which I then upgraded myself to their signature panoramic view room. The view was excellent, offering a 270-degree view from three sides, directly facing the bustling Sanlitun Taikoo Li commercial district. This is one of Beijing's most vibrant areas, with many events, such as the outdoor fashion week happening right downstairs during my stay. The hotel's location is superb, surrounded by malls, bars, and restaurants. There's a constant flow of people and traffic throughout the day and well into the night.
The InterContinental Club on the 22nd floor offered morning tea and afternoon tea with fewer crowds and excellent service – even more welcoming and attentive than other hotels. The gym and swimming pool were both good and not crowded at all.
The emotional value of standing by the window in the panoramic view room and enjoying the scenery was truly immense. The downside, however, is the price; I wouldn't have been able to afford it if the hotel hadn't given me a discount. Also, the electric curtains on the front and both side panoramic windows are linked, meaning that most of the time, to block out the view of the neighboring guest room from one side, the other panoramic curtain also has to be closed, which is quite frustrating. It would be better if they were manual curtains instead.DariTWD 8,543

When I visited Universal Studios Beijing this time, after doing my research and comparing options, I chose NUO Hotel, and it turns out I made the right choice.
Don't let the seemingly greater distance from Universal Studios Hotel deter you; it's actually just a five-minute walk across the street.
The room was twice the size, the slippers were incredibly comfortable, and they provided ten small bottles of water plus one large bottle daily... I was truly impressed.
I bought a package that included a two-day, one-night stay + double breakfast + 1.5-day park tickets + early park access. This was absolutely worth it. Buying the tickets separately would cost around a thousand yuan, and with early access, it would be about 1,500 yuan. Deducting the breakfast cost, the room itself was effectively only a little over a thousand yuan... and it was so comfortable that I even extended my stay for another day. The extended stay didn't come with complimentary tickets, though, and cost 2,700 yuan.
If I had to point out a flaw, it would be how difficult the toiletries were to squeeze out. As someone who works in the skincare and personal care industry, I truly believe such product design shouldn't be found in a five-star hotel... What's going on? Are they trying to prevent guests from using them?

The location is excellent, right next to Wangfujing, making travel very convenient. As for facilities, the building is a bit old, but well-maintained.

Additionally, the shower often leaks when in use. Regarding service, the staff proactively greeted guests and offered a mail-back service for forgotten items. However, there was an unpleasant experience during checkout. When checking in, I had added executive lounge access for the first day only. But at checkout, the system showed it was added for four days. I explained the situation to the cashier, and even the booking confirmation clearly stated it was only for the first day. Yet, they still had to meticulously re-verify, calling the restaurant and executive lounge to confirm, as if they suspected the customer was trying to cheat.

The subway costs ¥3 to ¥6, and foreign Visa, Mastercard, JCB and Amex cards tap through the gates. Keep a metro map offline. WhatsApp, Instagram and Google are blocked, so install a VPN before you fly.
Two habits keep you intact. Electric scooters run red lights and turn right without looking, so wait for the pedestrian signal. Save the numbers too: 110 police, 120 ambulance, 119 fire, and 12345 for the city hotline.
