Guest House For Diplomatic Missions

Very good hotel, in a very beautiful location!

It is old Soviet style housing (blocks) with Chinese redwood furniture. I don't think they have any non-smoking rooms, but the smoking residual smell wasn't too bothersome. The check-in for a foreigner during a pandemic was something to behold - you need passport with latest entry stamp into China, proof of your quarantine and cleared PCR-RT test on day #12 or #20 of your quarantine, proof of travel to Beidahe (personal vehicle, train tickets, plane tickets, etc.), evidence of vaccine (if vaccinated), green HDC code (travel health code --arrow), RMB100 deposit (they do give a paper claim ticket for refund of the RMB100), and they will retain your passport for them to validate your status in China and make copies. You'll leave a Chinese cell phone number and your permanent residency in China (mine was Shanghai & I had my Shanghai residency certificate with address indicated). Once you clear those hurdles, the room was ready on-time and they give you guest pass to use the private beach (maybe 500-ft of private beachfront) across the street (you have to leave the compound) and check into the private beach area. There's supposedly a canteen and restaurant on the premises, but they appeared to be closed possibly due to the pandemic. Fear not, there's plenty of food, drinks, desserts, beach toys around the compound as it is the heart of Beihahe CBD. But not many other amenities I could locate on the compound premises. The guests appear mostly to be foreigners, yet the staff could barely speak English. That is a curious feature - I would think as a diplomat retreat, the staff would cater to foreigners and English is more widely spoken than Mandarin amongst that crowd (at this point in history). To summarize, you stay here for the experience - to play where diplomats and their staff play, and where the Chinese leadership used to/ or still do come to rest and relax. You do not stay here for the amenities other than the 500-ft or so of private beach. By the way, everything on the private beach from the toys to the drinks to the umbrellas, etc. all require payment. Get sunscreen across the street from the private beach and it is super expensive, so check it into luggage if possible. I got 2 full bottles of sunscreen I bought on Tabao tossed from my carry-on. Again, stay for the experience and the proximity to the center of Beidahe, but do not expect glorious amenities.

i am truely amazed by location and staff. Excellent room, with a Sunny balcony and access to Private beach. highly recommend. kudos to the team.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. In the old times this was probably the only place in Beidaihe where foreign diplomats were allowed to stay. These times have long gone and now the hotel is open to everybody. The major asset is still the private beach in front, so if you are in for a beach holiday, this is the place to go! Non-Chinese guests should note that no English is spoken here and that all foreigners - even if their accomodation is confirmed - must get a "pre-clearance to check-in". The hotel will contact you through trip.com to request you to fill a form (in Chinese) and to send it back to the hotel along with pictures of your passport photo-page and the most recent entry-stamp into China **before you arrive for check-in**!. Failure to do so may result in your reservation being cancelled by the hotel on your day of arrival. Due to pandemic restrictions foreigners who have not been in China for at least 35 days will not be accepted for check-in. On arrival you also need to provide your local health codes. Hotel staff was friendly and helpful, but not really outgoing. It was more the friendliness you would find at a government office or police station. Breakfast is served from 7-9am daily and is Chinese only. On the 2nd day of our stay around 12.30pm while we had gone for sightseeing we were suddenly called on our phone by a man from the reception insisting that our booking was only for one night and that we have to check out immediately or our room would be cleared of our belongings. It took two more phone calls and forwarding our booking confirmation to the hotel once again to convince him that our reservation was in fact for two nights instead of only one. He did not really apologize for his mistake, but confirmed only that the matter was settled now. We were quite upset about this because it gave us the feeling that we had made a mistake, not them. If they have so much staff on duty why can they not keep their reservations in order? And we were lucky that we spoke Chinese, what about guests who do not and get these kind of phone calls while they are not in the hotel? But all in all: a hotel in a prime location, and your first choice for a beach holiday!

I like everything except the room. Room was not clean. Cleaning service just changing trash bags in trash cans and litlle bit mop the shower flores. Barely cleanning room. Smell and dirty courtines and carpet was destroing our holidays. We took two rooms, no smoking rooms. One of the room we change becouse of smell. We got litlle bit better one but still not tgat good hoe supose to be for that price.

This hotel accepts foreigner. The location is very convenient as it is close to the beach. We get access to a private beach with given tickets. The staff does not speak english at all. It was a bit difficult to exchange. The room is enough for 1 or 2 nights max. It was not so clean. Also, our room was near to several big air conditionning compressors. It was really inconfortable as noise come in the Room.

賓館環境非常好，一步一景非常怡人。房間整潔乾淨。賓館有自己的專屬海灘非常乾淨，隨時能看到工作人員清理垃圾。沙灘潔凈細膩。是直接可以躺着的級別。海水也是非常乾淨清澈，還能看到海藻，非常漂亮。出行便利，購物就餐便利。是您和家人出行的優選。

參加鐵三比賽特意訂的這裏，都是二三層的小樓，有很大的陽台，院內環境不錯，有私人海灘。海灘很安靜，還能看到小海鷗。 附近吃飯的地方不少，距離幾百米的蒸汽海鮮自助，和酒店旁邊的起士林都不錯

可惜攜程最高五顆星，否則我想給十顆！從若干年前我們發現這家賓館，照片是老二從十個月，到一歲十個月，到三歲十個月，到五歲十個月，我們多次入住這裏。真心對環境，安全，衞生，服務都超滿意。這次27號入住時工號015的工作人員看我們扶老攜幼的，主動為我們安排離海近的23號樓，一進樓保潔員主動替長者把行李抬上二樓房間。每次遇見工作人員都會熱情的打招呼，23號樓裝修過很乾凈，陽台很大，專屬沙灘很香，餐廳下的林間小道很美。希望日本的污水千萬不要污染這裏，希望保護好我們夢中的那片海。
