the Orchid Hotel

One of the loveliest lodgings I have experienced. The Orchid Hotel is a short walk from the bustling streets, yet it offers a peaceful retreat that feels like your own private oasis. The breakfast at either of their two restaurants is absolutely amazing! The bakery sells delicious bakes and they are hard to resist. The team running the lodging is a thoughtful bunch too. Knowing that I had to leave for the Great Wall at 6.50am, they made sure they had bakes and freshly brewed coffee for me to bring along for my day trip. The map provided by them is informative, thoughtful and extremely useful. Strongly suggest you take a good read and mark out the places you want to visit. Much appreciated Jihan and her team who have made the stay a very pleasant one.

Short but wonderful stay at the orchid. Warmly received we found a clean and well equipped room on two floors. Having a small kitchen at our disposal was very convenient. Beds were very comfortable and the quietness of our room led to a refreshing sleep. The orchid is located nearby the drum and bell towers, other places of interest are close by. We very much enjoyed the wonderful menu options for breakfast. All in all a superb stay at the orchid that we highly recommend.

A super Hotel to spend your time! Fantastic staff, wonderful breakfasts and a tremendous local area.

Great service, the receptionist checked us in smoothly when we arrived at midnight. They even packed us a breakfast even though we left early to the great wall the next day. The breakfast at the Cantonese restaurant is very enjoyable. That said, the room is a bit congested and small. Given that it's a courtyard hotel, the bathroom was a bit vintage, we even spotted a multi-legged insect running away from the shower.

Great location, more than amazing staff and really nice experience overall. The map they give you is superb, and breakfast is also very good. My only con was the fact our room had stairs which I did not realise from the photos, but besides this - The Orchid really made our stay in Beijing feel super special. Thank you!

Lovely boutique hotel in the Hutong. Small, but functional room and surprisingly quiet at night. Reception is very helpful for organizing trips etc. Good breakfast and food on premise.
