I stayed at this hotel closed to seven times in the past 10 years when I visit Beijing. The most recent stay was three nights in early June 2011. This hotel was a popular choice when Chinese officials host overseas guests. It could have been state-own in the past, thus the counter service reflects relatively of that level, the service... More

Stayed in this hotel for 1 night for business. Upon check-in I was asked to check in on level 9 (if I remember correctly) which looked like an upgrade of some sort. At check in, the receptionist had really bad attitude, basically made my colleague look stupid. Went into the room which looked nicely done up. A few minutes later... More

30 days in Beijing! This was a great location and hotel. Full Chinese and Western buffet breakfast included, deluxe western room and a super location. Most everything is in within walking distance, the Forbidden Place and all the main attractions. Hotel staff was excellent and we never had a single problem. Many places to eat and all were great. Highly... More

I stayed here for 12 nights at the beginning of December 2008. I had an 'executive' room - as did a colleague who was with me. My colleague's first room was far too warm and the air-con was switched off so it was only blowing warm air. As such, he had to change rooms. Mine was okay. Both of our... More

First of all, I paid US$86 per night (Y668) for a really fine, recently renovated room. That seems a little low, and I don't know whether that is because there was renovation in progress on my floor which produced low levels of noise, or because I got a discount for booking on line. One night from midnight to 5 a.m.,... More

Not a bad hotel, but unless you need to be here for a reason there are better choices. The hotel website is [--] , which I had a hard time finding before I went. The major problem is the rooms. When you book a room, especially if you get a good deal, expect to be put into one of the... More

OK I was back at the Minzu in October. I did not have a reservation, my wife and I just walked in. They were fully booked as were many other good hotels in town but, the staff bent over backwards to get us a not just a room but a suite. When you are half-way around the world It is... More

A week ago I walked into the Minzu Hotel in Beijing, China. It looked like a modern version of a luxurious golden palace! I arrived with no reservation and (sadly) discovered that the hotel was full. Though I was grubby from travelling in the countryside (muddy shoes, worn out jacket and not appealing luggage) I was treated like the queen... More
