    The hotel is in a Hutong and has a beautiful courtyard. The rooms are a good size, the duvet and pillows were very comfortable and the sheets, toilet and towels were extremely clean. The floor didn't seem super clean, but it may just be the type of floor that looks like that, and in any case, the hotel provides slippers. The breakfast was average. The location is amazing, very close to the Forbidden City and Dongsi street is very nice with lots of cafes and restaurants and little shops. Would definitely recommend staying here.

    The street he is on is misleading, not knowing Beijing. But in fact it is in a very convenient location: near the metro station, 10 minutes' walk to the shopping street, near the hotel there are many restaurants. The room is large and spacious, with the added value of the bathtub. The staff is very courteous, even if they speak little English they are happy to help you. Probably the only thing to improve is the breakfast.

    I would had liked to have a bit more options for a western breakfast. But it was just a minor thing.

    It is a hidden gem - not far from key sights. It had a very personal feel about it - far nicer that an international chain hotel. It is very clean and nothing was ever a problem. We would absolutely stay again in the future.

    Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at the "Dasein Hotel" in Beijing, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. Whether for adults or children, we all felt relaxed and happy, and we highly recommend it to other families looking for a great place to stay! First of all, the hotel’s environment is simply beautiful! From the moment we entered, we were immediately enveloped in a warm and welcoming atmosphere. For the adults, the room design was simple yet cozy, especially the bed, which was perfectly soft and firm, ensuring a great night’s sleep. The children also loved the plants and small decorations in the room, which gave everything a fresh and natural feel. There was plenty of space in the room, making it perfect for families, with no feeling of overcrowding. The public areas of the hotel are also great for family activities. The restaurant’s ambiance is very elegant, spacious, and bright, making it perfect for our family to sit and enjoy a leisurely meal together. The buffet had a wide variety of dishes, allowing the kids to pick their favorites, while the adults were able to enjoy healthy and delicious food. We all left the meal feeling completely satisfied. The restaurant staff were also very friendly and provided excellent service, making for an enjoyable dining experience. The exterior of the hotel is also very distinctive, with a design that beautifully blends modern and traditional elements. During the day, we could enjoy the sunshine, and at night, the lighting created a warm and tranquil atmosphere. While walking outside the hotel, the kids had a great time exploring the small, carefully crafted attractions, feeling as if we had stepped into a peaceful paradise away from the hustle and bustle of the city. What truly touched us the most was the service. Every staff member was incredibly warm and friendly, treating our family like their own.

    Returning Home—Rediscovering Warmth and Belonging at Dai Zhu You Lan Hotel As someone who has lived abroad for a long time, I always pay special attention to places in Beijing that are filled with local culture and historical significance. Recently, I had the pleasure of staying at "Dai Zhu You Lan Hotel," and my experience left me deeply moved, as it helped me rediscover the warmth and sense of belonging I had long missed. A Perfect Blend of Tradition and Modern Design, Elegant and Refined First of all, I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel's design. It perfectly blends modern and traditional elements, creating a minimalist yet warm atmosphere that makes you feel incredibly relaxed. Every detail in the room feels exquisite and artistic, especially the elegant decorations and soft lighting that make you feel like you're in a tranquil haven. Having lived abroad for a long time, every time I return to an environment with such a strong Beijing local flavor, a sense of warmth and belonging naturally rises within me. For someone who has been away from home for years, experiencing this deep-rooted local atmosphere in a hotel is truly an indescribable feeling of comfort. The hotel not only offers modern amenities but also incorporates traditional Beijing elements, such as calligraphy on the walls and antique decor, allowing me to feel the pulse of history and cultural depth. This design offers not only visual enjoyment but also spiritual solace. An Ideal Location—Enjoying the Tranquility of Beijing’s Hutongs The hotel’s location is also very convenient, situated near the historic hutongs of Beijing, where the surrounding streets are filled with the old flavors of Beijing. Even with the bustling city pace, walking through the hutongs provides a peaceful and leisurely experience that's different from modern life.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Beijing Daizhu Youlan Hotel, and the entire experience was truly unforgettable! 🌟 Firstly, the hotel's location is extremely convenient, situated in the heart of Beijing with easy access to transportation and a wealth of commercial facilities nearby. Whether it's shopping, dining, or sightseeing, everything is just a stone's throw away. Despite being in such a bustling area, the hotel provides a tranquil environment that allows you to escape the hustle and bustle, making it perfect for both leisure and business trips. 🏙 The room design is modern yet cozy, and it immediately makes you feel relaxed upon entering. The private bath in the room was one of my favorite features — soaking in it during the winter was incredibly soothing and allowed me to unwind after a busy day. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable, ensuring a peaceful and restful sleep. 🛁💤 Furthermore, the service at the hotel was impeccable. From the front desk to the housekeeping staff, everyone was friendly, professional, and always greeted with a smile, making me feel truly at home. The check-in and check-out processes were smooth and hassle-free. Whenever I had a question or request, the staff was quick to assist, making me feel very well taken care of. 😊 I also appreciated the little thoughtful touches throughout the hotel, such as warm reminders and small gifts, which added an extra layer of care and attention to detail. Overall, this hotel felt more like a home away from home rather than just a place to stay. 🏡 Whether for business or leisure, the Daizhu Youlan Hotel provided me with a perfect stay. Next time I'm in Beijing, I will definitely choose this hotel again and recommend it to my friends. Thank you to all the staff at Daizhu Youlan Hotel — you made my trip truly unforgettable! 💖

    Everything about this place was phenomenal. It’s tucked away in the alley of a Hutong, so provides great calm in the heart of the city. The place itself is gorgeous, and the rooms are lovely and of high standard. The staff were lovely and very helpful at all times. Overall I cannot recommend staying here enough.

    It's a cozy hotel with all facilities. Quite modern and location is not bad (not far from touristic areas). Staff don't speak English but they use some tools to understand guests and they were quite friendly. Breakfast is quite good and there is a small bar at the reception if you want to have a drink.

    There was coffee, warm milk and hot water to drink at breakfast, but no tea, nor juice. I have asked for a tea, but the staff said there was no tea. The location of the hotel shown on booking.com is not the one of the hotel. There is a difference of few hundred meters.

    Very close to Wangfujing and subway station. The hotel is in a Hutong and is therefore very quiet. It is a little paradies in the city center. The beds, pillows and lining were amazing. Staff were trying their best at reception to help.

    Water pressure is low, even though my room is located at ground floor. The wooden door at our room courtyard cannot close and leaving a gap that doesn’t allowed us to latch the door.

    Exclusiveness. It is hidden within the Hutong. I enjoyed staying in this small boutique hotel as opposed to large chain hotels.

    As I had two heavy suitcases, going in and out was quite hard. The courtyard has pebble floor, also her and there little steps, wheeling suitcases in wasn’t easy. Building has only two floors , but No lift, again, heavy suitcase not friendly to go in and out.

    The location is perfect, only 15mins walk away to Wangfujing pedestrian street. Lots of restaurants and cafe around. 15mins car to Beijing train station and about an hour away from Beijing Capital airport. Distant shown in bookings aren’t quite accurate. Staff is very friendly. Place is beautiful. There is no TV in my room but it wasn’t an issue .

    Note that the property's location is incorrect on Apple Maps (but correct on Google Maps), so I ended up in the wrong place when trying to find it! The breakfast also wasn't *amazing*.

    What a wonderful property! I absolutely adored my stay at Dasein Youlan and it offered such a peaceful respite from the chaos of Beijing. The gardens are beautiful here, and the rooms are calming, quiet, and spacious. The shower and bathtub were great, in particular, and I appreciated that the staff left many water bottles every morning when cleaning the rooms (it was very hot when I was there). The Wi-Fi worked well in my room. It's in a great location, too, not too far from the metro and close to many of the main tourist attractions in Beijing, and just around the corner from a convenience store. I would absolutely stay here again.
