Our stay at the Empark Prime Hotel Beijing was absolutely outstanding! The rooms are beautifully designed, incredibly clean, and offer a luxurious atmosphere. Every detail is well thought out, making it a truly comfortable experience. The hotel also boasts excellent restaurants, and the food is of an exceptionally high standard—every meal was a delight. The location is perfect for exploring Beijing, with easy access to all the major sights. Whether you’re visiting for business or leisure, it’s an ideal base to discover the city. What truly makes this hotel stand out, however, is the warmth and kindness of the staff. Their hospitality is second to none, and I have rarely experienced such genuine care. A special thank you to Ella and Richard, who went above and beyond to assist us with everything we needed. This hotel is simply exceptional—a perfect example of how a hotel should be run. I can only give my highest recommendation and would return in a heartbeat!

The staff was so helpful and their English was really good! They were always happy to help us understand the Chinese apps or with restaurant recommendations. They were all lovely and really made the hotel feel like home :) The atmosphere in the lounge area was always so welcoming and warm, we got to speak to some of the other guests and they loved it as well! There was also free coffee and tea available in the downstairs lounge area. We would highly recommend staying at this hotel if you're planning on visiting Beijing. The location is phenomenal, there is a bunch of local restaurants within the area and it is very conveniently located near to a fruitshop and you can easily reach some of the tourist sights by foot. It was great! And it was perfect for our family 7 day city trip :)

    Central location; less than 10 min walk to subway lines 8 and 5 (two different stations). The line 5 connects to the airport express train, making the transportation from the airport to the hotel convenient. Some 40 min walk to the Forbidden City; about 15 minutes walk to the Wangfujing (Snack Street).

    The Sunworld Dynasty Hotel in Beijing is conveniently located in a pedestrian area, few blocks from the Forbidden City (about 30 min walking from the South Gate), where there are few shopping malls and lots of restaurants. Subway is also very close (less than 5 min walking). The room was very clean, spacious and comfortable with a view in the royal palace in the Forbidden city. The breakfast was delicious. The staff was extremely polite and helpful.

    The hotel was well located, and within walking distance to shops, and many attractions in Beijing like Forbidden City and Tianmen Square. Breakfast was excellent with a variety of choices served each morning. I appreciated that several plates differed day to day and a nice balance of both Western and Chinese food. I worked remotely throughout the week and WIFI was fast and efficient. Rooms were spacious and clean. Oh and free laundry was greatly appreciated. All in all, a great stay and I was happy with our choice.

    Great location (short walk to Wang Fujing shopping street, walking distance to Tiananmen and Forbidden city), good breakfast and very helpful staff. Despite some hiccups in arranging for 3 rooms to be located at the same floor which i requested during the time of booking (3months earlier), the hotel staff managed to made it up for my family with 1 room and 1 apartment at the same floor. The apartment was an upgrade! Appreciate this very much

    The hotel is located in a beautiful part of Beijing and contributes to that beauty itself. The baroque style grandeur never seems out of place as it is combined with impeccable service. Luxury and comfort, not exclusivity, infuse the atmosphere. And it serves as a fitting base from which one could explore the Forbidden City (only 10 minutes walk away), the Wangfujing shopping area, the National Art Museum, etc.

    Excellent location. Very close to the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. Metro station was just 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Just 3 minutes walk to the Wangfujing pedestrian Street. Very cooperative staff. They arranged a tour for us for the Great Wall of China. They also arranged a taxi for us to the airport at very early in the morning. Restaurant was excellent

    The purpose for my Beijing trip was to visiting the Great Wall and the forbidden city. The location of the hotel is perfect for visiting Mutianyu part of the Great Wall. There is a direct bus route right behind the hotel. The hotel is also 1 minute away from subway, very convenient. The hotel is recently renovated so everything looks new and clean. Overall I liked my stay.
