China Great Hall Hotel

The best choice for watching the flag-raising ceremony! It saves a lot of effort. After checking in, the hotel staff will lead everyone to the square in the morning. The staff are very conscientious and responsible, and they will verify everyone's reservation credentials in advance. The room is clean and tidy, simply yet elegantly furnished. It's a bit old-fashioned but very comfortable.

This is the top choice if you want to see the flag-raising ceremony. The facilities are a bit old, but the restaurant food is decent, and the service is excellent.

This is by far the safest hotel in China. It's a bit old, but the service is excellent, especially when you're going to the square to watch the flag-raising ceremony – it saves you a lot of hassle! 😂 The view from the window is also great. It's worth visiting at least once in your lifetime!

Staying at the Great Hall of the People Hotel was a great experience overall. The hotel service was thoughtful and meticulous, and the staff were friendly and approachable. The location is uniquely advantageous, very close to Security Checkpoint 7 at Tiananmen Square, making it incredibly convenient for watching the flag-raising ceremony and getting around. Breakfast offered a rich variety of dishes. The only minor drawback was that arriving by transportation was a bit circuitous. The room was comfortable, and it made watching the flag-raising ceremony particularly hassle-free, making it very suitable for traveling with older family members. Highly recommended.

The hotel facilities are a bit old, but the service is warm and attentive. You can see the Great Hall of the People right from your window, and the security is tight.

Overall, it was a great experience.

Mainly went there to see the flag-raising ceremony, and it indeed saved a lot of time compared to queuing up with everyone else. The hotel facilities are a bit old, but they are clean, tidy, and comfortable. The service was good and very organized. It felt like experiencing the treatment of a National People's Congress representative, which was excellent.

Beijing, here I come! I took a taxi from the airport to get here. Cars aren't allowed inside the hotel premises. There are officers (hat uncles, as in police) at the entrance checking IDs. It's not far to walk in. Luggage goes through security upon entry. Check-in was quick. A crucial reminder: before checking in, make sure to book your spot to watch the flag-raising ceremony via the dedicated mini-program. The only reason I stayed here was for the convenience of having to go through only one security check to get to the ceremony. But if you haven't booked your flag-raising viewing slot in advance through the mini-program, then staying here is a waste. I'm a prime example of that. After checking in at the front desk, they give you a small national flag, which adds a nice touch to the experience. Dinner was good, and the buffet breakfast was delicious with plenty of choices. Overall, I'm very satisfied.
