NNazanins diary⭐ A Comfortable Stay with Beautiful Walking Paths and a Great Breakfast
We had a really pleasant stay at the Crowne Plaza Beijing Tongzhou. Overall, the hotel is comfortable, spacious, and a nice choice if you want a relaxing stay away from the busiest parts of central Beijing.
🛏️ Comfortable Rooms & Great Beds
One of the things we enjoyed most was the room. The bed was very comfortable, making it easy to get a good night's sleep after a long day. Many of the rooms also have bathtubs, which is a really nice touch if you enjoy having a relaxing bath during your stay. The rooms felt spacious and comfortable, and overall the hotel has a pleasant, upscale atmosphere.
🥐 Breakfast Buffet Is Worth Trying
I would definitely recommend the breakfast buffet. There was a good variety of food, making it easy to find something whether you prefer Chinese or Western-style breakfast. If breakfast is included with your stay, I would definitely take advantage of it.
🌳 Beautiful Surroundings for Walking
Another highlight is the area around the hotel. The hotel is surrounded by beautiful paths and greenery, which makes it really enjoyable to go for a walk. It gives the hotel a peaceful and relaxing feeling, especially compared with staying in a busy city-center area.
🍽️ Restaurant Experience Needs Improvement
Unfortunately, our experience at the hotel's restaurant was not nearly as good as our experience with the hotel and rooms.
There were many empty tables, but the restaurant lights were not even fully turned on, which made the atmosphere feel strangely dark and unwelcoming. When we were seated, the table was still dirty and they only started cleaning it after we sat down.
Another small but inconvenient detail was that we were given only one menu even though there were two of us. It would have been much more convenient to have two menus, especially when there were plenty of empty seats and tables available.
☕ Café: Very Disappointing Value
The café was probably the biggest disappointment for us. An Americano costs around ¥38, which would be understandable if it were a larger or particularly special coffee, but the cup was extremely small.
For ¥38, the portion felt far too small, and honestly, the price-to-value ratio was disappointing. This is definitely one area where I think the hotel could improve.
⭐ Overall
Despite the issues with the restaurant and café, we still enjoyed our stay. The hotel itself is comfortable, the beds are great, many rooms have bathtubs, the breakfast buffet is worth trying, and the beautiful walking paths around the property are a big plus.
I would happily recommend the hotel for the accommodation itself, especially if you value a comfortable room and a peaceful environment. I just hope the restaurant service, cleanliness, lighting, and café pricing can be improved because these details don't really match the otherwise nice experience of the hotel.
