Find Beijing Hotels with Rooftop Pools

"We booked a family room and arrived at 11 AM. I thought I'd try asking if we could check in early, and to my pleasant surprise, the gentleman at the front desk enthusiastically arranged it for us. Many thanks! 🙏 Facilities: The family room was fully equipped, with two double beds, a kitchen, and a dining area – all complete. However, the overall feel of the room leaned more towards a guesthouse. (Though I'm not sure why the TV wasn't facing the beds?) The rooftop pool, while not large, offered stunning views and had a lifeguard, so I felt comfortable letting my child swim independently. Environment: The hotel's location is convenient, about a 10-minute walk from both Jianguomen and Chaoyangmen subway stations. There are many attractions nearby, like Ritan Park, and plenty of shopping centers. The hotel had a lot of international guests and was relatively quiet. Upon checkout, the lady at the front desk thoughtfully gave my child a small gift. I would definitely consider staying here again."

"After comparing several hotels in the same price range, I chose Zǐlóng Gardens. I'd also looked at their usual rates, and it seemed a bit pricier then, but booking it in advance for a holiday trip was definitely a steal. **Stay:** For the same price, other places offer rooms under 30 square meters, but Zǐlóng Gardens gives you 50 square meters. It's nestled in a hutong, offering a quiet escape in the midst of the bustling city. It's actually the former residence of Prince Taò, who was an advisor to the People's Liberation Army's equestrian administration. We opted for the family room, which even had a small balcony with a view. The room had a great wet/dry separation in the bathroom, so washing up wasn't cramped at all. **Food:** The mini-fridge was stocked with complimentary drinks (mineral water, Coke, Sprite, beer), and they'd replenish it anytime. Although the restaurant isn't huge, the food is incredibly fresh, with different dishes every day. I initially thought breakfast wasn't included, but it turned out to be free! From 11 AM to 11 PM, they offer afternoon tea with chef-prepared dishes like wontons and Zhajiangmian, all completely free of charge. You can even take fruit back to your room. The 'Sìyuè Hétún' restaurant on the first floor also had good prices and flavors; no reservations needed for their fugu or roast duck. **Getting Around:** It's very close to Nanluoguxiang, the National Art Museum of China, Wangfujing, and Longfu Temple. The subway station is about a 10-minute walk, but I mostly used taxis, which made getting around super convenient. **Service:** The hotel staff's service was impeccable. Finally, although check-out was officially at 12 PM, they were fine with us leaving at 2 PM, and even gave us a farewell gift. Overall, it was a truly satisfying stay. Our 5-day, 4-night trip during Chinese New Year was a fantastic family experience and definitely enhanced our vacation."

"The customer service lady was quite nice, but I do have some issues with the guesthouse: 1. Check-in time was 2 PM, but when we arrived, the room wasn't ready yet. We had to wait another half an hour for them to finish cleaning. 2. The pillows on the bed were too flat, and the bed itself was too soft, making it uncomfortable. 3. And this is the most important point: there's no need to stay overnight in this Chestnut Village. It's tiny, and even the 'mini waterfall stream' is artificial 😂. You can finish exploring and taking pictures in just an afternoon. Also, food is very expensive here; an ice cream costs 68. Although the restaurant is a bit pricey, the food itself is actually quite good. 4. There are a lot of people with dogs, and they tend to pee all over the restaurant. There's really no point in bringing kids here, as there are practically no facilities for children."

"The twin room is noticeably larger and cleaner than the double room. The cleaning lady in room 412 was very dedicated and kind, and helped a lot – many thanks to her. The front desk staff who checked us in was quite rigid and by-the-book, but the lady who checked us out was very friendly. The hotel's system updates are slow, and some facilities are a bit old. It's clear that this hotel mainly caters to business travelers on corporate agreements, so it might not be the best choice for tourists."

"The hotel’s location is incredibly convenient for transit: it’s only a 10-minute drive to Beijing Capital International Airport Terminal 3, and around 20 minutes to Terminal 2. The smooth ride from the airport let me rest quickly after a long flight, completely easing my travel fatigue. From coordinating the airport pick-up to checking in, Mr. Hou, the Hotel butler, provided meticulous, attentive service. He followed up on my stay throughout and was always responsive to my requests, making my layover trip feel completely at ease. The huge immersive aquarium in the hotel lobby is the absolute highlight! The massive tank is home to a wide variety of tropical fish from different sea areas, and you can watch them up close. This one-of-a-kind experience is a rare treat for an airport-area hotel, and stopping to admire it during my waiting time instantly soothed my travel tiredness. Additionally, the hotel’s 24-hour self-service vending machines are extremely thoughtful, stocked with daily necessities, snacks and food. I could grab whatever I needed at any time, whether arriving late at night or before heading to the airport, with no extra trips needed—total convenience!"

"The hotel is very close to Dongzhimen subway station. The elevator goes directly to B1 level, which connects to the B1 level of the mall. Inside, there's a supermarket, a 24-hour convenience store, and various food options, much like a food court. It's also very convenient to walk to the subway station. We booked a two-bedroom, two-living room, two-bathroom suite, which was on the top floor. The view was a bit hazy due to the air quality. The room's decor was a bit simple, and the service, typical of an apartment hotel, was also quite basic. Overall, it was decent."

"This hotel is located in a residential area, right next to my friend's house. It was much better than I expected! The decor and facilities are all brand new, and the bedding is very comfortable. I'd suggest adding a towel rack in the bathroom for convenience, but everything else was excellent."

"We discovered Xiaojiangnan, a fantastic family-friendly guesthouse, during our two-day trip to Shidu with our kids! The themed children's rooms instantly won them over, keeping them happy all day. The guesthouse has an outdoor swimming pool where they can play, and the surrounding mountain environment is fresh and the air is incredibly clean. The rooms are clean and tidy, with complete facilities, including a private indoor hot spring bath – perfect for relaxing after a long day of play. The breakfast is nutritious and plentiful, and the owner is incredibly thoughtful, proactively providing information on nearby routes for families with children. It's also very close to rafting and scenic spots, making travel hassle-free. The courtyard is quiet and safe, allowing children to run around freely. Highly recommended for families with children!"

"My fiance and I just left and we LOVED it! The room was clean and the staff was VERYYY nice!! The workers made sure we were comfortable and recommended we sit and chill in the building with the pond with Coy fish during down time. They served us complimentary tea as well as we sat. It was a very nice atmosphere in there. Down the walkway is a restaurant that serves DELICIOUS food! I wish we had of tried them before our last day in Beijing because we would’ve been there everyday. If you stay and see a mid-aged lady asking you to try her restaurant, do it..you won’t regret it and she’s really nice as well! Again, the staff and room was fantastic!"

"Yueli is a beautiful hotel/B&B. It's located in a village close to Shuiguan great wall. it's a 15 minute taxi ride from Badaling station, but you will arrive in a very different world, a very tranquil place beautifully decorated with a view of the great wall. The owners are friendly and contacted me a day before to give me tips on how to arrive on the place. Shuiguan great wall itself is a steep walk, but not very long as they haven't opened up many towers, but the place is very quiet and you can really enjoy the wall! Highly recommend this village and Yueli if you want to relax and enjoy the greatwall at peace."
