My wife & I very much enjoyed our recent stay at this hotel. It is located in a Hutong (alley) where you can experience the "real" Beijing. There are many good restaurants in the vicinity. All the staff are very friendly and helpful & the breakfast provided is good. It's great to be able to relax in the courtyard after... More

We really enjoyed out stay of 7 nights in the 'wedding suite' of this hotel in the hutong. A great way to experience some authentic culture! The staff were very helpful, the breakfast offered was plentiful, there was a computer in the room with free wifi. We found lots of great eateries within a few minutes of the hotel and... More

Just got back from our time in China. The Beijing Double Happiness Courtyard Hotel was instrumental in our AMAZING holiday in China. First, we were in contact with the hotel prior to our arrival in China and the e-mails were replied to quickly and efficiently. We needed to book our train tickets to Xi'an for very specific dates with very... More

If you choose to stay in one of the western-clone hotels in the city when you could stay here, you must be crazy. This felt like authentic China and I loved the fact that it was situated in a Hutong, so that we experienced local life. The reception staff were fantastic - kind, helpful, friendly and attentive throughout our stay... More

My wife and me stayed for 4 nights in the Double Happiness. Authentic and well-restored hutong as you can find. All comfort. 10 minutes walk from Dongsi metro. Good base for a citytour in Beijing. One of the best features of this hotel is the enthusiasm of the staff. It was one of the reasons we selected this hotel since... More

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. Especially the offer of free bike rental was great as it allows you to get around quickly. Taxi drivers don't really like to go there as it's hard for them to get in and out of the hutong and it's a bit hard to find first,... More

We arrived on an overnight sleeper from Xian, caught the no 21 bus then the metro to Dongsi metro station and then a 5 minute walk to the hotel. It cost less than £1 to get there.This really felt like... More

Double Happiness was our first hotel in Beijing. Travelling through the Hutong to get there got us feeling like we could really only be in China. We were told on arrival that they had upgraded our room which is always nice to hear. Our room was off the lovely traditional courtyard which was lit by lanterns and very romantic (rm... More
