Pros:

Auberge au calme et idéalement située, à 15 minutes à pied de la gare et de la Muraille de Badaling. Le patio intérieur, grandiose, invite à la sérénité et les plats et petits-déjeuners faits maison sont tout simplement délicieux !

Great stay experience!
Pros:

The rustic and laidback environment, friendly staff, traditional breakfast wanton soup served. This hostel is located in an ancient town off the hustle and bustle of Badaling entrance to Great Wall. It is a nice long walk to get to the entrance of the attraction.

Cons:

Nothing in particular. Hosts are generally accomodating, breakfast is served between 7 to 8am, so be aware if you like to sleep in.

Pros:

Cada rincón merece una foto. Si quieres vivir una experiencia 100% china, es tu alojamiento. Las habitaciones correctas. La cama es tipo futón y el desayuno tradicional chino, ciertamente, curioso el lugar. Las fotos son algo desactualizadas. Todo estaba limpio y se puede visitar la muralla de Badaling, andando

Cons:

Faltaba un poco de espacio en la habitación

Nous avons adoré être ici. Nous avons été accueillis très chaleureusement et avons bien dormi et bien mangé. C'est un endroit stratégique pour visiter la grande muraille. C'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrons.

Pros:

万里の頂上のケーブルカー乗り場までゆっくり歩いて20分程のとてもアットホームなホテルです。
部屋は清潔で、中庭も伝統的な中国様式の素敵な内装でとてもリラックス出来ます。

ホテルの外はゆったりとした雰囲気で、すぐ隣に小さなスーパー、レストランも数軒あり、何も困る事はありません。

朝食もボリュームたっぷりで、大変満足しました。

万里の頂上近くでホテルを探している方に、このホテルを強くお勧めします！

que d’histoires et de merveilles. Un vrai petit bijou à coté d’un diamant
Pros:

L’emplacement ideal proche de l’entrée de la muraille et du téléphérique, de la gare ferroviaire également. Plein de restaurant typique a 0- 1-2 min de marche et très bons.
ils nous ont proposé de faire une visite de la muraille nocturne juste magnifique à au moins Une fois dans sa vie.
les deux employés ( mari et femme) étaient super aimables attentionnés et serviables .
la déco juste magnifique et authentique. la patio est très conviviale .
Et si jamais en étant de dos a la porte de l’hôtel, prenez à droite descendez env. 200 m et il y a un vieux monsieur qui pose sa table à l’ombre et ses deux perruches et il fait de magnifiques tableaux à l’encre de chine. et pas cher déjà encadré. 😉

Cons:

Ont dit dormir sur un matelas dur est bon pour le dos mais là c’était d’outre monde lol.
