A true gem in Beijing—exceptional service, great amenities, and perfect location.
Pros:

Exceptional hospitality and perfect location - A true gem in Beijing!
Pros: The location is perfect, blending traditional Hutongs with modern life, right next to Dashilan shopping street and walking distance to Tiananmen Square and forbidden city.

The Wi-Fi works great, and I used my VPN easily. There’s a travel agency right across the hotel that booked all my tours. The room service is outstanding; it's cleaned daily, and they provide free water, fruit milk, Nescafé, and tea every single day.

The hospitality is amazing: free breakfast and dinner, plus welcome and farewell meals. I want to express my sincere gratitude to the staff:

Nuoxi (诺西): When I arrived from the airport, I didn't have any local currency to pay the taxi fare, so she kindly paid it for me. This level of help and professionalism is truly appreciated!

Xiaoyan (小严): He was incredibly helpful during my departure, assisting me with my heavy luggage and personally arranging a taxi for me.

These personal touches made my stay unforgettable.

Cons:

Cons: None. Everything was perfect.

Exceptional stay
Pros:

I’ve been to so many places and stayed in lots of hotels but Nostalgia has honestly been the best one by far.

The staff were extremely nice and helpful all the time and they made my stay extra special.

I arrived on my birthday and they not only decorated my room but also surprised me with a birthday cake!!!

On my last day they even left a handwritten goodbye letter and some postcards from Beijing!

Also, location is just perfect, super close to everything and easy access to subway.

I’ll 100% stay here any time I’m back in Beijing.

Highly recommend!
Pros:

A couple of weeks ago we had an absolutely fantastic experience visiting Beijing and picked Nostalgia Hotel for accommodation! There are no words to describe how fretful we are for all the receptionists support.

We arrived after midnight and were quite tired. So it was really surprising to meet not only one, but two staff members, who helped us with the check in and luggage. There is no elevator in the building, so one of the staff took our heavy suitcase upstairs,while we’ve been offered some tea, hot water and midnight snacks - which was exactly what we were needed after a difficult flight and coming from the cold street.

The room was warm and cosy. Very clean with a little character which we loved. Being told that it may feel cold in this time of the year, we’ve never used an aircon, even during some cold nights, as it was actually warm inside.
Daily cleaning surprised with refilling complimentary snack bar. You’d never stay hungry, even though we booked a room without breakfast. Talking about which, we wanted to buy their breakfast for the first day, however, their beautiful staff at the reception offered this breakfast for us for free as a part of Chineese tradition, as a mail meal of the day. They took us to the local cadet just near by where we had absolutely incredible experience having traditional dumplings, porridge and eggs to start our day with. Absolutely amazing hospitality. We could not expect more! But then we tried their laundry service, which was super fast, and very convenient. Honestly, didn’t expect to get it done for free in the middle of Beijing!

Absolutely incredible stay! We’ve been able to have a late check out and also received such a sweet letter from the staff members written in Russian (we are Russians from New Zealand), we were speechless!

Highly, highly recommended!

P.S.
Forgot to mention: Amazing location - right in the middle of the capital. And also very close to a local subway!

Pros:

Hotelli asukoht on väga hea. Hotell asub väikesel kõrvaltänaval kus puudub liiklus ja on vaikne. Samas paralleelne tänav on rahvarohke, seal on palju poode ja söögikohti. Kõik peamised vaatamisväärsused (hutongid, Tian'anmeni väljak, Keelatud Linn, Taevatempel) on hotelli lähedal milleni saab jala minna. Lähedal on ka metroo jaam. Asukohaga jäin väga rahule. Personaal oli ka väga sõbralik ja üritasid aidata. Inglise keelt nad küll ei oska nagu enamus inimesi keda Hiinas kohtasin, kuid me saime suheldud tõlkeprogrammide abil. Hommiku sööki mul ei olnud nii et ei oska selle kohta midagi öelda, kuid hotellis oli võimalik õhtul tuppa tellida mingeid suupisteid, seda võimalust ma ka ei kasutanud seega ei oska öelda kui head või halvad nad olid. Ühel päeval kui ma tulin linnast väsinuna peale pikka kõndimist, leidsin toast jalavanni mis oli väga abiks.

Great location and service
Pros:

Location near to Qianmen street market. Subway-line 2 and 8 about 5mins walk. Free laundry-they did for me while we were out. Friendly staff-though no spoken English. Chinese or they will order McDonald breakfast. They ordered
a taxi for us and came with us to make sure we got into taxi. Taxi can technically only pick passengers at designated locations.

Cons:

Hotel wifi and our data doesn't work in our room. Need to sit in lobby or outside our room to access Internet.
