Dasein Youlan Hotel

Overall not bad

Struggled to decide on the overall rating. The hotel is clean, with a nice bath for soaking; staff are responsive. The location overall is fine but perhaps our expectations differed. Breakfast was provided - the variety akin to local breakfast tastes. Perfectly fine. The sticky point is the air conditioning, which is not controllable other than on and off. So by the last night we were forced to open the windows for some semblance of appropriate temperature and 'air flow. However, smoke from outside and noise from other rooms with similarly opened windows intruded into the room. I would think its better to label the hotel as not having individual air conditioning control.

There are great positives about this hotel and a few negatives. Among the positives, great service and staff, tranquil, different than the big box hotels - it has a more spa like vibe. However, a couple of negatives resulted in my move to a different hotel after just one night. It was a hot day in Beijing and the room AC wasn’t effective. A friend who was staying in a different room on the ground floor said it was fine, so it could be the room I got. The rooms are small unless you are staying in a suite. The hotel entrance is in a side street, behind a restaurant that had a few garbage bags lying around and frankly smelled bad. Not a good first impression as you enter the hotel, although not hotels fault.

Very nice small hotel, very convenient not far from Wangfujing area, at the entrance of a hutong. Very nice and helpful people. Very nice rooms with great bath. Very good everyday cleaning of rooms. Some milk given everyday and of course water. Nice patio and exterior corridor with bamboos, a little of japanese atmosphere. The only less good point to mention is that breakfast could be a little improved for foreigners, that is having knives for exemple ( to put butter on the toasts). It was a very very good stay. Thank you to the team of hotel.

Staff's service is excellent. Good location and design. Not ideal for this winter as the road and entrance leading to the hotel is very slippery. Good bathtub but no TVs and telephone in rooms. Have a cute dog

Really nice hotel, with a small inner garden with fountain's in the heart of Beijing. Nice clean room, the bathroom is a 3 in 1 room with the sink in the middle and the shower and toilet, one on each side. In the shower area there was also a bathtub. Only minus in the bathroom was there was nowhere to hang up the towels.. Breakfast during our stay was sent to the room in boxes because of some meetings, but when there is no meeting there is a buffe. Minus with the breakfast during our stay was there was no coffee, but luckily there is a coffeeshop 30 seconds away from the hotel, maybe they could make a collaboration with some discount? Otherwise we recommend this, close to the subway station dengshikou (4min walk) and will probably stay here again!
