King Parkview Hotel

It was an affordable and clean place to stay, and the WiFi was reliable. I saw lots of reviews that mentioned it was difficult to get transport to the hotel due to it's location, however we had no issues being dropped directly to the hotel entrance. We were able to walk to the Forbidden City, but it was a long walk. There were several convenience stores and simple restaurants around the entrance which was handy.

We had booked for three adults in a family room, which we confirmed on payment and arrival. However, after taking our bags up to our rooms we found here was only one double bed supplied. A fold out bed was supplied on request, however there was no cushion or mattress, only a hard wood base with a duvet and pillow which was extremely uncomfortable. It was also very difficult to get taxis or Didi pick ups from the area, though no issues being dropped back from other areas.

The carpet in the rooms emits a heavy smell. There was no sponge on the beds, you know, I felt like I was lying on the stone. My back hurt. It was not possible to access the internet, it was either too slow or I could not connect.

Well equiped and clean rooms.

Rooftop terrace was not available. The terrace was a reason to book this hotel for my group. No English speaking staff at the reception, which makes it hard to communicate in case of questions.

It was okay

Staff wasn’t helpful. Did not even call the taxi for us. We ordered family room but had only one bed. They added really small extra bed. The entrance way we saw really big cockroaches. The location is good but it is not so close to metro station or bus station. I will not recommend it was expensive to compare what you really paying for.
