We had good service. Something we did no know is they required us to deposit 500 Yuan at the time of check in. Either you pay cash or give them your credit card. We gave the cash which was refunded when we checked out. Be sure to keep your receipt. The room was large and very clean. However, the bed... more

This is a very nice hotel. The location is fantastic. Walking distance to Tienneman Square, walking street just off the Square, Forbidden City and the famous Peking Duck restaurant. The rooms are very nice, with a nice large bathtub which came in very handy after climbing the Great Wall. The beds are incredibly uncomfortable. It is like sleeping directly on... more

We stayed at the Capital for 3 days at the start of our visit to China and first impressions were very positive. We arrived at the hotel at about 8am and whilst our room wasn't ready straight away it was only about a 30 minute wait. The staff generally were polite and whilst some had limited English we communicated without... more

We have just returned from our travels and spent 5 nights at the Capital. It is true what others say about the beds being hard and the restaurants being empty but neither bothered us. We had a lovely room in Club where the staff couldn't do enough for us. The food there was more than enough. The pool was great... more

Capital Hotel was a decent place to stay in Beijing, albeit a bit depressing. The hotel feels quite large, as the lobby/foyer area is enormous. Despite the grand entrance area, the overall feel was depressing as there were rarely other people around. The room itself was clean and housekeeping was quite good. The bed linens were nice, however, the bed... more

OK hotel - 10 min walk to Tianmen square and the Forbidden city. Close to the Underground City. The rooms are quite big, but a bit outdated. Beds are big and comfortable. Breakfast was ok. The top floor restaurant is not that good, and quite expensive. more

We stayed three nights at the Capital Hotel in Beijing as part of a "China Sampler" Smartour in mid-May. We thought it was a really elegant hotel, with luxurious rooms and lobby. The lobby was adorned with lovely statuettes and a remarkable live fish tank. The breakfast was very good with lots of choices for different tastes. They even had... more

Just a short walk from Tiananmen Square and The Forbidden City. Excellent location walking distance from both hutongs and major shopping streets. Umbrellas provided in room if weather is bad. Well appointed rooms - stayed in two different rooms on 17th and 14th floor. The first was a bit dated and both had very firm but okay beds. Two small... more

Definitely a five star (Chinese) hotel, a long walk or short cab ride from from Tiananmen, the Temple of Heavenly Peace, and Wangfujing. Beds are on the firm side but not quite uncomfortable. Our room was well furnished, though not the most modern - cube TV, standard shower, tea maker. Our travel agency got us an upgrade to a club... more
