Hotels near CCTV Headquarters, Beijing

I was originally scheduled to check out and go elsewhere, but I decided to extend my stay for a few more days. This was because I still had some things to deal with, and I absolutely loved the hotel's ambiance, excellent service, prime location in the heart of the CBD, and convenient transportation. The breakfast spread was also incredibly diverse, among other great advantages. It felt just as wonderful as before! Highly recommended!

This was my first stay at the Grand Millennium Beijing, and it exceeded my expectations by far. It wasn't overly crowded, so it felt very peaceful and quiet. The swimming pool is a major highlight, integrated seamlessly with the gym on a different floor, creating a spacious, high-ceilinged area with a Southeast Asian vibe. I encountered many Hong Kongers there, from business travelers in the elevator to an elderly couple in the executive lounge; they were all very humble and friendly. The surrounding area boasts a wide variety of restaurants, and the Fortune Plaza Mall is practically a canteen for Beijing's white-collar workers. The night view is also top-notch, with the CCTV Headquarters lit up beautifully. A pleasant surprise was bumping into a celebrity while working out – the 'rooster among roosters,' haha. The Grand Millennium is fantastic, giving me every reason to return. The male manager who handled my check-in was very gracious, and the service was just perfect.

We stayed here during the May Day holiday, and it was quite busy. There was a minor hiccup initially: I had requested a room with a good view when booking, but upon arrival, the designated 13th-floor room with a view wasn't ready. They offered a 11th-floor room with a fire door instead. The front desk staff was very accommodating, saying I could change rooms anytime if I wasn't satisfied. The 11th-floor room did offer a view of the CCTV Tower, but having an internal door made me feel a bit uneasy, so I asked to switch again. They then arranged a quiet room on the 19th floor. The staff throughout this process were incredibly friendly, and their service was prompt and excellent. The room itself was simply decorated but had great facilities, and the water pressure was strong. Even with the May Day crowds, food deliveries were quite timely. The only downside was the exorbitant parking fee. It's 10 yuan an hour for underground parking with no cap. After one night, my parking bill came to 225 yuan. Compared to the room rate of over a thousand, the parking fee was quite painful. Those who need parking should be prepared!

The room perfectly matched the photos, and was clean and well-maintained with all the necessary amenities. The hotel service was top-notch, making for a very comfortable and pleasant stay. The hotel is located in a quiet area, yet has convenient transportation nearby. The staff were incredibly kind and even gave us a fridge magnet! Their service was really enthusiastic.

Absolutely loved my stay at Dequan Luxury Hotel! The starry sky design creates a fantastic ambiance. The room was spacious, bright, and impeccably clean. The service was attentive and thoughtful, and the breakfast spread was amazing with a huge variety of options to choose from. The hotel's courtyard also has a pavilion where you can relax. The facilities are excellent, and it offers great value for money. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit!

North-facing room. The window view (p1-6) is a city landscape. The breakfast buffet (p7-15) offers a mix of Chinese and Western dishes. You can ask the chef to cook noodles or make omelets (I only overheard this, but saw other guests doing it). I encountered a polite and responsible young chef who, despite the busy peak hours, did his best to meet guests' needs. The front desk is on the 40th floor, where you can find complimentary fruit and bottled water. There's also a coffee machine offering espresso, regular coffee, and cappuccino (p16-17). All the front desk staff I interacted with were enthusiastic and polite, always ready to answer questions. Thank you. The cleaning staff provided excellent service. They usually cleaned in the afternoon. If the 'do not disturb' sign wasn't out, they would proactively knock and ask if cleaning was needed. They were efficient and professional, and always asked if I needed any items replenished. Sometimes, if something was overlooked, the staff would actively inquire if I still needed it, showing genuine consideration for guests. Thank you. Besides the front desk and restaurant, there's a small gym on the 40th floor, also with a city view. There are changing rooms outside the gym (p18). The in-room facilities are a bit dated; anything made of plastic has yellowed. However, all essential items are provided. The kitchen is fully equipped with a complete set of tableware, pots, pans, and bowls. The air is dry, especially in the bedroom. You might want to bring a small humidifier.

Pro Location is King: It’s a 5-minute walk from Beijing Railway Station. If you’re catching an early train, this is a lifesaver. Vibe: It’s an old courtyard house (former home of Edgar Snow). It feels authentic and ”Old Beijing” rather than a sterile corporate box. Price: Very hard to beat for this part of the city. You get a lot of character for a budget price. Quiet: Even though it’s near the station, the courtyard setting keeps the street noise out. Cons Tight Squeeze: The rooms are not too big. If you're traveling with huge suitcases, you’ll be playing Tetris to move around. Finding It: It’s in a hutong. It’s charming, but your first time finding it with bags can be a bit of a hunt. Basic Bathrooms: They’re clean and functional, but don’t expect a spa-like setup. The Bottom Line It’s perfect for backpackers or solo travelers who want a cool, historic home base in Beijing

Stayed from the 6th to the 10th, and this is by far the best value-for-money five-star hotel I've stayed at in Beijing over the years! Not only is the location excellent, but the service is absolutely outstanding. On my first morning, I couldn't check in immediately, and a warm cup of water while I waited in the lobby made me feel so welcomed. All the staff were warm, enthusiastic, and attentive, truly making me feel at home. A special thank you to the friendly front desk and the concierge team. Even after I checked out, they diligently kept a package that was mistakenly delivered and promptly notified me. I was incredibly touched by their thoughtfulness!

I was really impressed with my stay at this hotel. The location is super convenient, making it easy to get around for business or shopping, and there are tons of great food options nearby. My room was spotless and fresh, with no strange smells. The bed was incredibly soft and comfortable, and the bathroom had a great dry/wet separation with fast-heating water and all the necessary toiletries. The front desk staff were incredibly friendly and efficient with both check-in and check-out, and patiently answered all my questions. The soundproofing in the room was excellent, so I had a peaceful night's sleep. Overall, it offers fantastic value for money. The environment is quiet and comfortable, and the facilities are perfectly adequate. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in the area, whether it's for a business trip or just a one-night stay. I highly recommend it to everyone!

The hotel is within a 10-minute walk from the subway station, and there's a FamilyMart convenience store and pharmacy right downstairs. The room was a bit compact but the facilities seemed quite new and recently renovated. I stayed for two nights, and breakfast was delivered to the room. On the first day, it was delivered late, and I had to call to get it sent up. Even though it was cold, the staff were very polite and apologetic. On the second day, I initially didn't plan to extend my stay and had the front desk extend it by 2 hours, paying an additional fee. Later, due to my own reasons, I extended my stay for another day through the platform. However, the fee for the additional 2 hours was not refunded. Since I booked through the platform, the hotel had already processed the 2-hour extension I added. In the future, I'll need to be mindful of this kind of transaction; perhaps it would be better to book directly with the hotel next time.
