Hanting Hotels in Beijing

This deserves a five-star review! I was traveling solo this time and specifically booked a king-sized bed, which absolutely made my stay. First, I have to give a huge shout-out to the airport pick-up service. The driver waited patiently for me in advance, proactively helped with my luggage, and even shared recommendations for local food along the way – it made me feel so safe as a traveler. The king bed in the room was perfectly comfortable, not too soft and not too hard, and it was glorious to just roll around on by myself. The bedding was fresh and smelled like sunshine. Even though I only stayed one night, the front desk staff were incredibly efficient. Great facilities and even better service – I'll definitely be staying here again next time!

The hotel is in a great location, just over ten minutes' drive from the airport, making airport transfers very convenient. There is free parking in the underground parking lot. The service staff is friendly and the room is clean. The downside is that the room is too hot in this season. The air conditioner should be turned off, so the temperature cannot be adjusted. The only way to deal with it is to open the windows all night. The noise of planes taking off and landing outside is very loud, which affects the rest.

I was here for a visa application, and this hotel is incredibly close to the embassy, just a 5-minute walk away. The facilities are comprehensive, and the hygiene is impeccable. I had a great night's sleep with no noise whatsoever. The front desk staff are warm and attentive, always greeting guests proactively. When the delivery robots are busy, staff members personally bring food deliveries to the rooms, minimizing wait times for guests. You can easily walk to Yansha Shopping Centre, and the night views along the Liangma River International Waterfront Park are stunning. A stroll along the river is incredibly relaxing.

This was my second stay here. The breakfast was plentiful, and the room was spacious and clean. It's super convenient for travelers heading to the South Railway Station. However, I got stuck in the elevator, which was a bit of an incident, but thankfully, a staff member arrived promptly. I hope they improve infrastructure maintenance in the future, as it could be quite dangerous.

My four-night stay was an excellent experience overall. Let's start with the pros: 1. **Security**: The hotel offers excellent security. A driver provides pick-up and drop-off services from the subway station every half hour between 8 AM and 10 PM. Food deliveries are handled discreetly: delivery staff bring items to the front desk, and a robot then delivers them directly to your room, ensuring guests are not disturbed. 2. **Cleanliness**: The rooms are exceptionally clean, tidy, and well-lit. Housekeeping tidies up daily after guests head out. For longer stays, there's a convenient laundry room downstairs equipped with washing machines that also have a drying function. 3. **Service**: The staff are incredibly service-oriented. Both the front desk team and the housekeepers are very thoughtful and professional. Housekeeping respects personal space, never moving belongings unnecessarily and leaving unfinished drinks untouched. Any items forgotten during check-out are immediately reported to the front desk for verification. The front desk even proactively suggested calling them directly for urgent matters, as message replies might be delayed. 4. **Value for Money**: It offers excellent value for money. As a Hanting hotel under the Huazhu Hotels Group, its prices are very competitive; similar double rooms in other hotels typically cost around 500, making this a much more affordable option. Now for a couple of minor drawbacks: 1. **Location**: The hotel's location is somewhat remote. The walk from the subway station to the hotel can feel quite deserted, especially if you arrive after 10 PM and miss the hotel's shuttle service, which could raise some safety concerns. 2. **Drying Clothes**: While hangers are provided, there isn't a convenient place to dry clothes (just a small hook flush against the wall, not near a window), making it inconvenient for laundry. As it was my first time in Beijing, I found the overall experience very pleasant. Getting a good rest is crucial when traveling to have the energy to explore, and this hotel certainly provided that. I highly recommend the Hanting Baliqiao branch.

The location is super convenient, just a few minutes' walk to the subway station. Even though it's in a busy area, the neighborhood is incredibly quiet, and the room has excellent soundproofing. If you prioritize easy access and a good night's sleep, don't miss this place. The hygiene details are impeccable; the toilet and sink are sparkling clean. The bedding is fresh and comfortable, and the bed is huge and super comfy, allowing for complete relaxation.

1. The hotel is newly opened, and the facilities are very new, but there's no smell of recent renovations. 2. All services are comprehensive. There are free ice makers and tea machines in the lobby. There's also a coffee machine with discounts for guests and members, a separate laundry and drying room, and a separate storage room (luggage padlocks, bags in lockers). There's even a rocking horse for children! 3. Due to some external reasons, our family of four booked a superior family room with two 1.5-meter beds, but it turned into a room with one 1.8-meter double bed and one 1.2-meter single bed. After communicating with the hotel, they patiently helped us resolve the issue, making our room the one with the most blankets. 4. The service was excellent. They proactively helped with our luggage, guided us to the elevator, etc. The attention to detail was very good.

Okay, the location is excellent! It's just a three to five-minute walk across from the hotel to the North Gate of the Temple of Heaven Park. Public transportation, both buses and the subway, is incredibly convenient. It's a quick and easy trip to Tiananmen Square, Shichahai, and Beihai Park!

Breakfast was extremely disappointing. When we went down at 8:30 AM, everything was gone – empty trays everywhere. No one was clearing the tables either. I ordered a bowl of noodles and two bowls of wontons. When the noodles came out, I asked if I could just grab them, and since no one said anything, I did. But then I was told that they were for someone else who was waiting, and the staff kept on about it. With a child present, I didn't argue, but honestly, it was enough. Why would the staff talk to customers like that? I also asked for milk twice and never got it. The room itself was okay, but the air conditioning wasn't very cold. Parking was quite convenient though.

The room was quite spacious, and everything felt new. The table was convenient for two people to dine at. However, as soon as I entered and went to use the toilet, I noticed it was a bit dirty. The odd thing was, it cleaned up with just one flush, which made me wonder if it had been cleaned after the previous guest. I ended up ordering some alcohol spray via delivery and cleaning the toilet myself. Other than that, my experience was very good, and I would choose this place again. Though, I might do a quick hygiene check beforehand next time.
