The Rainbow Hotel was very good, I stayed in 2 different rooms, and they were both excellent sizes, and had a lot of room. The TV was husge (although only Chinese channels!). The only negative was, my friends room stank of smoke, as you could smoke anywhere in the hotel. So i was very fortunate both my rooms smelt pleasant.... More

THis was my first hotel in Beijing, actually the only hotel I stayed in. I've not stayed in many mainstream hotels, mostly I'm a backpacker. The room was clean, the staff friendly the foyer had beautiful sculptures from peasant life and a very comfortable indoor cafe with wireless internet that was pretty good. there were people in reception that spoke...

This was the final hotel of our Travelsphere tour. The hotel was very bright and modern with a grand lobby area. Our room was smaller than the ours on the tour but still plenty of room, decoration and carpets where clean and flat screen TV with English channels. Breakfast room was large with a good selection of Western and Chinese... More

Recently returned from a quick 4 day trip to Beijing, China. We booked through the MWR of our local base. Our itinerary was exactly what we needed and of course, our guide had to take us to places to shop because tourism supports the Beijing economy. Now the hotel...

This was the last of our hotels on our Travelsphere tour. The staff were rude from the moment we arrived. Our room was very peculiar - it has the washbasin in a cubicle in the hallway, outside the bathroom, as one enters the room! The room was small and dark made even more so by the fact that the two...

Our first visit to the hotel on the 19th of Jan was for two nights, and we stayed in room 918 - I was very apprehensive about our tour with Travelsphere as this had been my first time going on an organised tour, so...

This was the last hotel we stayed in on our trekking tour of the great wall of China, and the first hotel where an 'english style breakfast' was on offer. Rooms were clean and comfortable and the food was good. Its a very big international style hotel but as for the location I cant really comment, Beijing is an enormous... More

This was the first and last hotel used on our Travelsphere discover China tour. Not the best on trip. The area around the hotel felt safe for a walk after dinner. Lots of shops and a local market to look at. Room large, but heating not working properly. Large metal windows which got very cold. Ending up moving bed as... More

I liked this hotel. It felt more in the centre of things than others that I stayed at in China. There were a small convenience shops and a bakers opposite. Nice foyer, expensive bar drinks - much cheaper in the restaurant - and they didn't know how to make a gin martini - which was disappointing. Food not bad, breakfast... More
