I stayed at this property with my husband, father and brother (and their significant others) for one night. I had requested rooms with a view of the Great Wall in advance and we were excited to have such rooms upon arrival. We had one adjoining room (which comfortably fit 2 couples with a shared bathroom) and one regular room. We... more

This 'hotel' is a property with over 40 houses designed by the leading Asian architects. Fantastic. Villas can be rented as a whole or by room. We stayed in the Bamboo House 2, which is straight out of Architectural Digest. The room was very comfortable with nice amenities. TV was small but you are there for the Great Wall and... more

I am not sure what to say about this hotel. It is very peaceful, yet not particularly far from Beijing. It was lovely to be out of the city and smell the fresh air. The hotel is a group of individual houses. Most of these houses seem to be divided into separate bedrooms with own bathroom, but have a shared... more

Stayed at the Commune by the Great Wall for 3 nights, perfect after all the hustle and bustle of Beijing. The hotels location is beautiful in a "private" valley with fantastic views over the great wall. The rooms are situated in different buildings spread out over the valley, and you are transported around in your very own BMW X3 with... more

We stayed one night at The Commune in April, staying in Cantilever 3 in a double room. You don't (or shouldn't) come here for anything other than an opportunity to visit a part of the wall that you can have almost to yourself. The surroundings of the hotel are nice, particularly as we were there in spring and everything was... more

If you go to Commune to enjoy 5-star service and amenities, you are making the right choice. To to go to Commune is to experiment your own little slice of the great wall, in its original decayed state, with lots of character and interesting curves. To go to Commune on a w-e, is to meet expats and wealthy chinese, who... more

The concept is brilliant - an architect-designed bamboo house by the Great Wall but our house (No 8 of the bamboo houses) only had a view of the road and other houses, this was a little disappointing. We were also shocked that 7 of us went through 41 little plastic bottles of water in 2 days there and that the... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. We had a family suite which was perfect for the kids. The service is not up to international standards or Kempinski standards by any means and the staff speaks little English, which is fine for a guesthouse or local place but not fine for an international chain. The landscape was so amazing and the... more

I would like to thank to the team for making our stay unforgettable. The room was so cute and we found nice welcome gifts on our arrival. The memory which will stay forever in our minds is the champagne on the Great Wall. We had a yummy dinner first night in Terrace Restaurant and a fantastic breakfast next morning. All... more
