We really appreciated the slightly out-of the way location of this nice small courtyard hotel, just up a quiet residential hutong. Walking to forbidden city etc quite do-able but walking it both ways can be tiring and taxis can be very demanding for return trip! staff looked after us discreetly but helpfully, and overall a very good place to relax...

I stayed 4 nights in this lovely converted courtyard house hotel in May 2012. It is located down a quiet hutong lane within walking distance of the very interesing Houhai Lake District and a few subway stops from the Forbidden City. The rooms feature intricately painted ceilings and beams with interesting furnishings and decorations. A choice of western or oriental... More

We stayed for a few nights in this hotel and it was fine. Nice decoration, no luxury though. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Nice traditional hotel, settled in a traditional courtyard with all rooms overlooking the courtyard. Large room, beautifully decorated in a traditional manner. Staff very helpful. Internet available in the lobby. Breakfast rather poor. Central location, altough nto very close to the main touristic sites of Beijing.

For me service was a real plus. The girls were really helpful and kind. Made me Chinese dumplings in the middle of the night, answered all of our questions about planes, trains, and activities. Just really made sure to cover their bases: arranging pickups, navigation around the city. The rooms are a little small, the beds a little less giving... More

So much impressive with the hotel decor. The staff was very friendly and very kind. The hotel style was different from the others in Beijing. The breakfast was good. Convenient location, near some restaurants. Very cozy place to stay. I'd recommend the hotel.

If you are looking for something in Beijing that is different from a typical western-style hotel, then this place is definitely worth considering. It is a small, quaint courtyard-style hotell off an unlikely narrow alley-way in the Hutongs. Ours was a deluxe room with a four-poster bed and traditional furniture. The room was remarkably quiet and we woke to the... More

Spring Garden Hotel is a jewel hidden in heart of Beijing. It is a living piece of eras long gone, with more perks and comforts added in. Each room represents a different dynasty with beautiful decorations down to the last detail. The staff is extremely helpful and ready to include and advise you of activities that are China. This is... More

Nice hotel, classic room decor, similar to other hotels. The location is good, no good local restaurants. Yes, it is close to the silk market, but the pearl market offers better goods at cheaper prices and the sellers don't hound you nearly as bad. It is a 2-3$ taxi ride away. We will staye at this hotel again if we... More
