The hotel is located in a Dongcheng hutong area north-east of the Forbidden City. The location is great. The building is a typical grey-brick Beijing courtyard hotel, with beautiful decoration and a nice courtyard where you can have breakfast (like in most Chinese places nothing for I-need-an-excellent-coffee-in-the-morning-freaks), drinks and wifi. Just a few steps down the street is the restaurant... More

The decor has an "old chinese" feel , down to the badly stained carpet. But the location is good. It is pleasant to have breakfast in the courtyard when the weather is nice. But we had to contend with leaking pipe that floods the bathroom floor for the 2 days that we stayed there.. The solution of the the management... More

My wife and I along with another couple stayed hered for 4 nights in May. This was our 2nd stay at Lusongyuan Hotel and quite content with location. Located down a quiet hutong alley; it is a 5 minute walk to a main thoroughfare where there are lots of activities, shopping and restaurants within other hutong lanes. Rooms are decorated... More

I wanted an authentic feel in my accommodation to accentuate my Beijing experience. LuSong Yuan meets that expectation but falls short of the quality I normally expect. The hotel rooms are in need of updating. Bath linens are subpar. Wifi in rooms seems to turn off after business hours, exactly when a weary tourist might want to check in back... More

Just finished the book "the last days of old beijing" and this is exactly what i expected! its a nice central location and great feel and experience. its not immaculate or perfect service but above average, but that's not why i picked this place! great overall experience and definitely a pretty good value with conversion rates.

If you want your hotel in Beijing to give you a glimpse of the past (as we did) but are willing to accept that with this you lose an element of chain hotel comfort then this place is for you. We loved the old-worldy feeling of sitting out in the red lantern lit courtyard in the brisk early evening air... More

My wife, our 8 months son and I stayed a week at this charming hutong hotel. The location is excellent, being very close to one of the most funky hutong streets in Beijing. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the reception staff speaks good english. The rooms are cosy and very different from modern style hotels. The large... More

I was prepared for contrast when I decided to stay in this hotel for 4 days after having stayed in a 5 star ultra-modern hotel in Shanghai. But I wasn't prepared for the shoddiness. Things didn't look good the moment I checked in. I had booked and paid for 3 rooms and had even written to the hotel's management 2... More

This place was excellent, it was in the perfect location and being in the hutongs alleyways) gave you a taste of traditional beijing living. It was not far from all the major attractions, forbidden city etc etc. The staff speak good english and were able to write the names of placed down on a card for us to show the... More
