Let’s get started! 👇
Plug Types Used in China
Image source: world-power-plugs.com
China's electrical system includes plug types that may differ from what travelers are used to in their home countries. The main plug types found in China include:
China plug type
| Plug Type | Description | Common Usage |
|---|---|---|
Type A | Two flat parallel pins | Common electronics; compatible with US & Japanese plugs |
Type I | Three flat pins in a triangle | Newer buildings and modern facilities; similar to Australia |
Type C | Two round pins | Often found in older buildings and some hotels; widely used in Europe |
Type A
Type A plugs feature two flat, parallel prongs. These are ungrounded and used for general electronics. They are also used in the US and Japan. However, because they are not grounded, they are not suitable for high-powered appliances.
Type I
Type I plugs have three flat pins arranged in a triangle, including a grounding pin, making them safer for higher voltage or sensitive devices. This type is similar to those used in Australia, New Zealand, and parts of the Pacific.
Type C
Type C plugs have two round pins and are one of the oldest types still in use. They are mostly found in older infrastructure. Like Type A, they are not grounded and are used for low-power devices.

The service was a bit inconsistent, but I have to say, they really delivered on my request for a room with a better view when I booked in advance, which is a big plus. The most bizarre thing, though, is that you have to pick up your own food deliveries; staff can't do it for you, and there are no robots either. As for the facilities, well, they're quite old-fashioned.DariMYR 648

From 2014 to 2019, I spent six-weeks each summer teaching in Beijing, and over that time, the Boyue Beijing Hotel has served as nothing less than a home away from home for me. It is exactly its friendly embrace and easy elegance that distinguishes the Boyue from Beijing’s larger, higher-profile hotels. Still, after a six-year absence caused by the pandemic, I was concerned that I might find a far less welcoming version of the place I had truly come to love. It was a relief to see that Liu Baojun was still out front and that Lisa was still at the head of the dining room, but so many others who had made my stays at the Boyue so unforgettable had moved on. However, no sooner than I checked in, my worries began to vanish completely. That’s when I first met three extraordinary new staff members—Jiaqi, Yonah , and their supervisor Anais—who demonstrated again and again that hospitality was still the heart and soul of coming to stay at this Chaoyang institution. Through the hard work of such talented and committed professionals as these three, the Boyue not only continues to check all the boxes that one expects to find at the highest levels of the hospitality industry—comfort, attentiveness, fine dining, and first-rate facilities—but I am also convinced that in the years since the pandemic, it has actually surpassed its own considerable track record of excellence. Thank you, one and all, for making my latest visit such an absolute pleasure!DariMYR 276

Hotels in downtown Beijing are too expensive on weekdays... this one offers great value for money! The location of a hotel in Beijing is key! Located on the East 2nd Ring Road in Jianguomen, it's an older Japanese-owned hotel, with many Japanese guests. The rooms are also very Japanese-style, feeling like staying in a hotel in Osaka. The hotel has a small garden, and breakfast is quite good. Although the facilities are a bit old, the overall maintenance is very good.DariMYR 404

Honestly, and without exaggeration, this was the worst hotel experience I've had among all the hotels I've stayed in.
1. The hotel is very large, and the lobby is grand and beautiful. There are staff members to help with luggage. I'm not sure of its star rating, but it has a swimming pool and a gym, and the location is good.
2. Now for the downsides: The breakfast quality is mediocre. The front desk for check-in is on the 3rd floor. Every time you want to go downstairs, you have to go to the 3rd floor to switch elevators, and then take another elevator or escalator down. The same goes for going up, you have to keep switching. This is quite inconvenient. Additionally, the laundry room charges for washing clothes, and it's a third-party service that closes at night, so it's not available 24/7.
3. I booked a king-size bed room for nearly 900 per night, and it was quite ordinary and not very spacious. There was no welcome fruit upon arrival. The mini-fridge only had one small bottle of Coke and one small bottle of Sprite, as shown in the picture. On the first day, I used the tea, but it wasn't refilled on the second day. I asked a staff member for another Coke and Sprite, thinking I'd drink them on the road, and I was incredibly surprised when they refused. The reason given was that since my previous drinks hadn't been used, they couldn't provide more. I booked for two nights, which essentially means I paid for two sets of amenities. Shouldn't two sets of amenities be configured identically? Two small bottles cost just a few yuan. Even a budget hotel wouldn't refuse something like that. It just makes the hotel seem stingy. Some staff members are snobby, arrogant, and impatient, even rolling their eyes. Just because they see a lot of foreigners, do they think they're rich? Do they look down on everyone? The experience was actually worse than staying at an Atour hotel.DariMYR 338

Check-in was a bit chaotic as there was some confusion regarding my booking of two rooms, which led to a need for two keys. This was somewhat frustrating. However, the hotel itself was immaculate and very clean! I was impressed with the standard of the rooms, and the facilities were excellent. The pool was pristine, and the gym amenities were fantastic. The hotel matched the photos perfectly, and we had a lovely stay overall.
For breakfast, we ordered room service. One room’s breakfast was satisfactory, but the other ordered two waffles and received pancakes instead. We brought this up at checkout, but the same lady who checked us in didn’t seem interested in addressing the issue and charged us the full amount despite their mistake.DariMYR 495

Hidden luxury and refinement amidst the hustle and bustle of Beijing, an unforgettable stay!
This hotel perfectly hit all the right notes! The prime location is a huge plus, making commuting and sightseeing incredibly convenient. Even better, you can directly access the shopping mall by simply swiping your card, so you don't have to brave the elements for shopping or dining—a lazy traveler's dream come true.
Stepping into the room, I was immediately impressed by the tasteful furnishings. There's no ostentatious design; instead, the materials and lines exude a subtle sophistication. Coupled with art decor that blends in with Beijing's charm, from wall decorations to corner擺設, every detail reveals the ingenuity of Chinese aesthetics, making it feel like staying in an elegant urban courtyard. The cleanliness was impeccable; the bedding, bathroom, and desk were spotless. This attention to detail in hygiene made for a truly reassuring stay.
The overall atmosphere of the hotel is incredibly comfortable. It avoids an overly flashy sense of luxury, offering instead a subtle yet profound comfort that makes both relaxation and work highly enjoyable. The amenities are also faultless; the pool water is crystal clear, and the gym equipment is comprehensive and well-maintained. After a workout, you can enjoy a refreshing shower, making it easy to maintain your fitness routine even while traveling.DariMYR 309

Plus, Guorui City and New World are just a 5-minute walk away, making shopping and snacking super convenient! The room was clean and odor-free, and the bed was so soft I didn't want to get up. The staff, both the guys and girls, were incredibly warm and welcoming. I even forgot my charger, and they actively helped me borrow one! The *youtiao* (fried dough sticks) and *doufunao* (tofu pudding) at breakfast were incredibly authentic. There's also a Huguosi Snack bar downstairs, perfect for late-night cravings.

I especially want to praise the front desk staff, Zoey. Her service is simply impeccable. When handling the check-in procedures, she was enthusiastic and professional. I asked her many questions about nearby places to visit and dine, and she patiently answered all of them. She also thoughtfully provided a lot of practical suggestions.

This was my second trip to Beijing in mid-to-late October, and I chose to stay at the same hotel I did years ago, which added a nice sense of familiarity to revisiting the city. The most appealing aspect is the hotel's central location in Wangfujing. The interior environment is still quite good; whenever you return, you can enjoy a hot tea in the lobby to ward off the early winter chill. I didn't get the 'Jiangnan' room, so I opted for a premium room with a bathtub. Although I don't usually take baths, the room felt much more spacious, and having a window for ventilation was convenient for temperature control. The cleaning lady was very outgoing and easy to communicate with; she replenished the water daily, and tea bags and soft drinks were refilled the next day after use. For small items I needed temporarily, I could provide a list on WeChat mini-program, and a robot would deliver them, which is perfect for introverted travelers. However, since there's only one elevator and one robot, food deliveries might be a bit delayed during peak hours, but calling for human service is a warm touch. When checking out on the morning of October 26th, the front desk attendant was very gentle, asked for detailed feedback, and even gave a small gift, which brought a perfect end to my trip. Sorry I promised to leave a review but only had time to write a few words today (๑• . •๑). Finally, I suggest the hotel updates the in-room TVs when appropriate; not being able to easily cast content feels a bit outdated.DariMYR 298

Let's skip the positives; it's an old, established hotel.
Here are the negatives:
1. The hairdryer was broken. I tried multiple outlets and confirmed it was completely unusable. I took a shower right before leaving in the morning and then discovered the hairdryer was out of order. Luckily, I have short hair, so it dried quickly, but if it were a woman with long hair, it would definitely have caused a delay. When I brought this up at the front desk, their reaction was simply to thank me for informing them, without a single apology.
2. There was renovation work going on upstairs in the hotel, and the sound of the electric drill was quite loud during the day. There was absolutely no warning given at check-in, nor was there any notice about renovation noise placed in the room.
3. The toiletries were in large bottles, but unbelievably, they couldn't fit into the shower niche (as shown in the picture). I had to make do by placing them awkwardly, or else, when I needed shampoo while showering, I had to open the door, step out of the shower stall, and grab it from the sink area.DariMYR 281

Do I Need a Voltage Converter in China?
Malaysia uses 240V / 50Hz, while China uses 220V / 50Hz. Most Malaysian travelers do NOT need a voltage converter for standard low-power devices like phones, tablets, cameras, or laptops.
Charging Laptops in China
Most laptops have chargers that support 100V–240V, so they can be safely used in China without a voltage converter.
Charging Smartphones in China
Smartphone chargers typically support 100V–240V. Just check the charger label. If it states “100–240V,” you can use it in China without a transformer — just make sure you have a compatible plug adapter.
Special Equipment May Require a Converter
Some grooming tools (e.g., electric toothbrushes, hair dryers) or kitchen appliances may only support 240V. If not labeled “100–240V,” you’ll need a step-down transformer to avoid malfunction or damage in China.
What Voltage is Used in China?
China uses 220V at 50Hz — this is consistent across both urban and rural areas.
- Hong Kong: 220V
- Taiwan: 110V
If your device supports 220V or is dual-voltage (e.g., “100–240V”), it will work in China. Otherwise, a voltage converter is required.
