Mountain View Hotels in Beijing

The hotel boasts a great environment with simple yet elegant decor. The rooms are spacious and bright, and the facilities are complete and well-maintained. Cleanliness is satisfactory, the staff are friendly, and the hotel offers excellent value for money. It's suitable for both business and leisure travel, and highly recommended.

The place is beautiful and owner couple were super helpful! Location was perfect to go anywhere in the Watertown and not too far from the entrance to the Great Wall. Also super near to the square where the drone show is at. Breakfast was great, often being served with local treats for us to try. We stayed with 2 teens, 1 child and 2 adults. My children were upset that we didn’t stay any linger there. If we would to be back, it’s definitely where we’ll be staying! Highly recommended!

The inn's location is excellent, right near Sun and Moon Island Plaza, making it convenient for shuttle buses and sculling boats. The room layout is well-designed, clean, and hygienic, allowing my family to rest comfortably. The breakfast provided by the inn is very generous, and the special dinner dishes are delicious and affordable. Waking up in the morning, you can enjoy the tranquility of the water town from the balcony. The host's service is also excellent. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time!

On the morning of our check-in, the hotel called to inform us that due to the typhoon, they were being used as a temporary shelter, so our booking was moved to a Deluxe Family Room at Gubei Zhiguang. The room at Gubei Zhiguang was a bit smaller and the facilities felt a bit dated, but the breakfast was good, which somewhat made up for it. What I found unacceptable was the 25 CNY charge for the hotel parking. Of course, this isn't the hotel's fault, but rather an issue with the overall scenic area management. By the way, a shoutout to the Chinese restaurant opposite Gubei Zhiguang – it was excellent.

The hotel is located all the way at the end of Gubei Water Town, but they provide a free 24/7 shuttle service that can drop guests off at their desired destinations within the town. If the shuttle is not readily available, there is a hotline you can call and a driver will come to pick you up, which is extremely convenient. The hotel is also just a five-minute walk from the entrance to the Great Wall. As hotel guests staying overnight, we received discounted tickets to access the Great Wall, which was a nice bonus. Another highlight is that this hotel is one of only three hotels in the area that offer complimentary access to the hot springs. On our first night, we visited another hotel’s hot spring and were provided with free admission tickets. On the second night, we enjoyed complimentary access to the hot spring at our own hotel. The outdoor hot spring overlooking the Great Wall was a truly memorable experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and the overall setting was pleasant. The only downside was that the lobby toilets were squat toilets. We would have preferred Western-style toilets for added comfort. Luckily, the room toilet was a western style toilet. We did a night visit to the Great Wall and came down around 8.30pm. Unfortunately, the dinner service around the hotel area has ended and we could only visit the main town to get dinner. Overall, the convenient shuttle service, Great Wall access, and complimentary hot springs made for a very enjoyable stay.

The hotel environment is excellent, with a great sense of design, and the room views are absolutely stunning. The bedding is comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The service makes you feel right at home; the butler helped with our luggage, and the breakfast offers both Western and Chinese options, all delicious.

A perfect experience, truly living up to its renowned reputation as 'The Commune'! The design is absolutely stunning, and as the filming location for 'Love in the Buff,' it's incredibly photogenic. Both the public areas and the rooms are picture-perfect. The windows offer breathtaking mountain views, especially healing at sunset. Waking up naturally to sunshine and birdsong each day, completely escaping the city's hustle and bustle, I truly embraced a slow-paced life of eating, strolling, and taking photos. After three days, my mind and body feel completely refreshed. I'm already looking forward to my second visit. I also want to give a special shout-out to Alvin at the front desk. His service was warm, attentive, and he handled everything seamlessly. Highly recommended!

This hotel is incredibly convenient for visiting the Mutianyu Great Wall, especially if you want to experience both day and night tours. Since it's located right inside the scenic area, you can get onto the Great Wall early in the morning and avoid the crowds. However, I wouldn't recommend bringing large luggage, as most rooms require walking up stairs. The restaurant is also good and offers great value for money.

Facilities: The kids' playground was a bit disappointing. One slide was under maintenance, and there was no trampoline, just building blocks and such – not much to play with. It was worse than what I expected from a family-friendly hotel's children's facilities. The pool was great and clean. The hot spring pools were also a lot of fun. However, the outdoor area only opens at 10:30 AM and the slides close around 5 PM. In Beijing's summer, it's impossible to play when it's at its hottest; you'd get roasted. And it closes before it even gets dark. It's a bit of a shame that we couldn't fully enjoy the outdoor slide pool. Cleanliness: Clean. Service: Very good and enthusiastic. Kevin, our butler, helped us solve all sorts of problems throughout our stay. Many thanks to him. Environment: Right next to Wanda Plaza, so no worries about food and drinks. It was very convenient. The hotel lobby bar was also good, with decent standards.

The hotel's location is absolutely fantastic! You can reach the foot of the Great Wall in just two minutes. The room was super clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. My in-laws, who were traveling with me, loved just relaxing in the armchair by the window, breathing in the fresh air, so much so that they said there was no need to even climb the Great Wall – just staying at the hotel was a treat in itself. There's also an adorable tabby cat at the hotel that loves getting belly rubs. Dining was convenient too; Yanxi Fishing Village is right in the courtyard, and the food portions were generous. After we came back from the Great Wall, we rested at the hotel, and the staff even thoughtfully brought us afternoon tea. It was such a warm gesture and really helped to wash away the fatigue from climbing the Wall. The scenery at Mutianyu is just beautiful! We'll definitely be back, and when we return, we'll stay here again and come to pet your cat once more!
