Cheiro forte de cigarro. Longe do metro.
Apesar do hotel dizer explicitamte que é para não fumantes, isso só ocorre na teoria. No primeiro dia já sentimos cheiro muito forte de cigarro oriundo do corredor. Veementemente reclamado, mas não adiantou muito, pois eles não têm métodos de impedir. .
Hotel mal localizado, pois fica longe do metro. De taxi até a estação do metro gastam-se 15 yuan, algo em torno de R$ 7,00 na cotação corrente (não é caro, mas fica na dependência de achar taxi e ficar fazendo baldeação de ônibus/metro).
Para chegar ao hotel de ônibus, só temos 1 opção, senão, taxi ou mais de 30 minutos a pé (em torno de 2 km).A maioria dos funcionários não falam inglês, o que dificulta a comunicação.
Não tem muitas opçoes de comida perto.

Great room with wonderful amenities
The hotel is located in a decent location, close to couple of restaurants among other things. The hotel is slightly old but is decently well maintained. The room was great, the toiletries provided were very thoughtful and good. Only issue we had was that it was a duplex room. So - either carry the luggage upstairs - which is painful if you have lot of luggage; or run up & down to get your stuff. The front desk staff didn't speak English and was a bit painful because of that -. but our guides saved our days. I would gladly give 5 stars if not for the couple of inconveniences.

Lovely stay at a temple hotel
The staff of the hotel are polite and efficient, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is a real peaceful ambiance at the hotel. Unfortunately no gym and wireless internet is not the best, but cable internet is fast. English is a challenge for hotel staff, however they do their best to help with any queries/requests. The area is far from downtown (half an hour) and surrounding neighbourhood is not really special.

Fantastic Experience.
A true 4 star and enjoyable hotel. Spend four nights there to meet family members and friends. Quiet, but convenient location, close to everything. Many great restaurants in short walking distance. 24 hour hotel services. Very neat! Very friendly staffs. Will surely come back again. Highly recommend!

תקרית קטנה העיבה על רמת השירות: בלילה הגעתנו התקשרנו לקבלה בשל הקושי לאתר את המלון. הפקידה שמעה שאני דוברת אנגלית ומיד ניתקה את הטלפון. כך היה 6 פעמים (ניסיונות ההתקשרות הללו עלו לי 120 ₪!!!). הם מאוד נרתעים ממי שאינו דובר סינית והאירוע היה מבזה! למעט זאת, רמת המלון היתה מעבר לכל שיעור, ה bell boy היה מקסים ואדיב וכך יתר העובדים. ביומנו האחרון אף אישרו לנו להישאר בחדר עד כשלוש שעות לאחר מועד הפינוי. היו באמת מקסימים!!! מיקום המלון בהחלט לא משהו...והעובדה שנהגי מונית עובדים על תיירים ללא הרף, זה מאוד הקשה על התיור בביג'ין!

Not worth it!
This hotel may have been a four star... but several years ago!! Now, the room are not very clean, the bed is horrible, the personnel service is soso and it's location is not convenience!
It's far away from the metro and from all attraction and due to its far location it's the last one to be served by the travel agency for city or great wall trip!

Nice quiet hotel.
Checking in was a little rough as there were several big groups from India ahead of me... Everyone seemed a little frazzled. The clerk who checked me in did not speak much English but enough to get through the process with no issues. She was a little surprised at the rate that I got, she said "How you get such a good price?" And had to go consult with someone else to make sure it was legit (I am guessing). The room was quite nice and the visible areas were clean, however in the corners and some semi hidden areas there was sign of housekeeping neglect. This is pretty typical of any business in Beijing it seems. It was also very quiet and very pleasant. Checkout was much easier as the clerk spoke perfect English. Some things to note, even though it says that there is no wireless Internet in the rooms, there was. There was an access point right next to the tv. Also, there was a minibar that had 2 bottles of water, 1 can of coke and 1 can of sprite... There was no indication that these were free or not but it turned out it is free and replenished everyday.

Lovely Hotel
The hotel is lovely and is built on the grounds of an old temple, which has a lot of history. The staff are really nice, friendly and helpful. There is a bit of a language barrier as many of the staff don't speak very good English, but they do try and are all lovely. The room was very clean and we had a good view overlooking the courtyard and old buildings. Also the free mini bar is filled every time you have your room cleaned...2 bottles of water and a can of coke & a can of sprite.
Taxi drivers do find it a little bit difficult to find, but there are always taxi's passing by the hotel on the main road. The hotel is a 20 minute walk to the Beijing Railway Station / underground and a 20 minute walk from the Temple of Heaven / The Pearl Market. Nice restaurants very close to the hotel as well as a convenience store and an ATM close by.
If we decide to go back to Beijing we would definitely stay at the XiZhao Temple Hotel again.

great hotel that looks like a temple
The hotel seems like it IS the temple. Walking into it is beautiful and the lobby is downstairs. Walking into the room it is very simple and nice, good upkeep. My room smelled of smoke though and the bed was very firm. The shower water would hit the ledge of the tub and then filter to the drain on the floor so be careful getting out of the shower.
The breakfast was very good and the staff was very helpful trying to get us a tour or a cab. Some staff's english was limited but there was always someone there that could speak some english. I would stay there again as I am not a very picky traveler.

Cons.

Adequate but no more than that
Arriving late at night the taxi driver leaves you at a non-descript entrance and the only staff available at the door didn't realise that the 2 large suitcases and 2 pieces of hand-baggage were a little difficult to drag across the cobbled courtyard on your own. At least he held the door open, then went back to fiddling on his phone. Checking in was OK and the room was a decent size but smelled musty. Outside temperature was cold, but so was the internal temperature and the only heating is a warm air convector. Wifi in the room was free but useless for anything but basic email so forget Skype or web-browsing, and the service is intermittent at best. Location is a brisk 20 minute walk from the nearest Metro station though taxis are cheap and the place is well-signposted. Breakfast is poor: chinese selection is as you would expect but get there after 09:30am and there is nothing left, no coffee, just scraps of food and bits of fruit. The same slices of cold meats were brought out and left untouched on each of the 3 mornings I was there. For the central location you shouldn't complain about the price, but you don't get any luxury or amenity in this place, and a business person would require more than what this has to offer.

A good hotel though a bit away from subway
The hotel is built on the premises of a previous temple which makes a nice surround. Rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff is helpful and friendly. The one disadvantage with the staff is their lack of English which even though is better than with most people in Beijing, it still below standards in western hotels. Generally speaking, the hotel provided exactly what was expected. A nice, clean hotel in a quiet part of Beijing. The main disadvantage is that the closest subway station is a good 30 mins walk away. Even though taxis are really cheap in Beijing and the hotel staff is always ready to get you one, with all the traffic jams the subway is always the most preferrable way to get around

Don't
I am rating this hotel as just OK. We were with a tour group and stayed here for 4 nights. We came in on our own a day before. The first room we were given was one in which a heavy smoker used and they had no other room available. They offered to clean the room of smoke, using a spray deodorizer which of course didn't work. This first room also had a non functioning AC system so the room never cooled down. The next day we were moved to another much larger and nicer room. But this AC also did not work. The fan blower would not work. The room was 27C when we moved in by the time we moved to a third room the temperature was 32C. The third room was okay the blower for the AC worked and kept the room at 24-25C. The rooms themselves were large and comfortable except for the AC. Others in the tour group pretty much had the same issue with the AC. AC in all China is pretty much a non working dial or digital unit. I was there in Oct, summer would be HOT, HOT, HOT. The AC system needs maintenance or upgrade to work.
The breakfast was okay but overpriced. I pretty much stuck with eggs, toast, coffee and OJ. The rest was not so good.
Really excellent hotel. Room was so well planned and little things provided like a small emery board for those snagged nails when your moving luggage. A nice thoughtfull touch. Comfortable beds, although harder than home, but normal in China. The staff were helpful and reception staff spoke reasonable English. Domestic staff did not, but we were able to communicate and they were eager to please. Couldn't really fault the hotel.
The location was not good. It was a long way from the nearest subway station, about 20-30 minutes walk and need map. Taxi's were difficult to get at any, but the quietest times. They seemed reluctant to stop for westerner's. Nice pleasant restaurant across the road from hotel, don't know name, but has 4 large chinese characters above it. They don't speak English, but know what westerners like. Take phrase book, be patient and enjoy lovely food.

Lyxigt hotell ett par busshållplatser bort
Mycket snyggt hotell. Personalen är vänlig men har svårt med engelskan. Håll koll på att inte hotellstäderskan glömmer att dammsuga och fylla på med tröstar och socker. Vi behövde påpeka vissa mindre brister för hotellchefen men sen blev vi furstligt omhändertagna. Hotellet är lite svårt att hitta tillbaka till. När du går ut från hotellet tag rulltrappan vid receptionen, gå ut på gatan, gå till vänster till korsningen (80 m), sväng höger ut på Xishaosi Street och gå till nästa stora korsning (300 m). Sväng höger på Guangming Street. Går man gatan rakt fram kommer man till Tian Tan templet (Temple of Heaven). Där finns också närmsta tunnelbana. Obs att gatan byter namn till Tiyuguan Street halvvägs till templet. När du är på väg tillbaka till hotellet gå EXAKT så här annars blir det lätt helt fel och man kan inte fråga någon. Det är enklast att ta en taxi från flygplatsen till hotellet. Det kostar ca 80 Yuan och väljer du att åka flygtåget blir det bara besvärligt utan att bli billigare.
