Prime Hotel Beijing Wangfujing Hotel

The hotel is located at the beginning of Wangfujing. We need to walk about 10min to Dongsi subway station. A big supermarket is located across from the subway station. There were many eateries near the supermarket. The shopping malls on Wangfujing were nearby. The room was spacious and clean. Easy to get taxi in front of the hotel, but recommended to book via concierge as the taxi which has a line up in front of hotel may charge more and does not speak English. Accommodations were good but not luxury. You get what you pay for the price since it is budget friendly.

Stayed at the magnificent Prime Hotel in the Wangfujing Road. The staff was friendly and helpful, although at times it was hard to understand their English. The rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious. The Hotel is within walking distance to various shopping malls and restaurants as well as The Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. The breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious and affordable! If you travel to China do not hesitate to stay at this hotel. I highly recommend it.

Good location

The hotel is located near the Forbidden City and the shopping area of Wangfujing, about 15 minutes walk from each. This makes it perfect for tourists. Rooms are large and the bed are big and comfortable. Toiletries provided are good quality. The breakfast buffet has many choices of Chinese and 'continental' food. Free WiFi has decent speed. Remember that you are in China, so to access Google (Gmail, maps etc..) and Facebook you'll need your own VPN to connect to. Not all staff at desk speak English and sometimes they appear rude. Not all of them, it's a matter of luck. In the end we still managed to get what we needed. In the room next to us someone was smoking, even with their door open. Apparently no one said anything because it happened two days in a row. It is not clear what, among the many bottles of water you find in the room, is complimentary and what has to be paid for.
