北京万朋宾馆点评

De service was goed, mensen spreken Engels. De kamers zijn klein, maar dat maakt niet uit. De kamers zijn vies! De Lakens waren vies. Er lagen twee handdoeken, maar die waren nat en er zaten nog allemaal vlekken in. Waren echt goor. Mijn kamer had een douche, maar dat stelde niet veel voor, wat ook niet erg is, maar de de slang met douchekop kon niet eens ergens fatsoenlijk opgehangen worden, dus douchen is ook niet echt prettig. Internet niet op eigen kamer. Locatie is goed, maar in dezelfde locaties zit ook Days Inn, veel beter.

这里地理位置很好，大概离故宫10分钟吧，我是从东门进去的。离王府井更近 员工很热情，能细心告诉怎么坐车。老外很多，晚上他们还有party。虽然我英语不太好但很喜欢这样的气氛。可以免费上网。

We booked here two weeks before our stay. When we called to confirm our arrival they told us they had cancelled our reservation! That left our family of six scrambling to not have to stay on the street. So unless you can tolerate getting your room canceled with no notification don't try to stay at this place.

The best place for backpackers situated just a stone throw from the Forbidden City. There are a few quite good restaurants nearby. Stuff is very helpful and everybody speaks English. They also help to arrange excursions to many places of interests (also to Tibet) and tickets to opera, kung-fu etc. Rooms are quite clean and all have windows but some go out to next building which is half meter far from and it makes the room dark, so not easy to wake up in the morning. I can definitely recommend this place!

酒店说他们只接待外国客人不在国内搞宣传，可我到了之后才发现什么样的人都接待。房间小的不能在小了，大床房是用两张小床拼在一起的，窗户也非常小根本就看不到外面的景色。在房间不开灯就不知道是白天还是黑天，里面也没有什么设施非常简陋。酒店根本谈不上有什么服务，看着服务员都很忙，都坐在一起聊天。给我印象挺失望的，酒店实际的情况跟价格完全不符合。

非常低的价格,很奇妙的住宿地。很惊叹的旅行。临近一切事物。极力推荐。

氛围比较轻松活泼，因为基本上住在那里的背包客比较多，酒店就会在晚上的时候，组织一些活动搞个聚会什么的，然会顾客可以参与其中，这是比较有意思的一点。酒店的服务人员态度比较好，也非常的客气，这感觉不错。酒店的房间里没有电话，但是电视、空调什么的还是都有的。它的位置比较好，离天安门、王府井都是很近的。

住宿的两个星期前,我们预订了这里。当我们打电话确认我们的到来,他们告诉我们,他们已经取消了我们的预订!这让我们一家六口非常担心露宿街头。所以除非你能容忍没有得到通知就取消你的房间,否则不要尝试住在这个地方。

说他们是国际青年旅舍性质的，主要待外国客人不在国内搞宣传，可我到了之后发现还是什么样的人都接待。房间小的不能在小了，大床房是用两张小床拼在一起的，窗户也非常小根本就看不到外面的景色。在房间不开灯就不知道是白天还是黑天，里面也没有什么设施非常简陋。酒店根本谈不上有什么服务，看着服务员都很忙，都坐在一起聊天。给我印象挺失望的，酒店实际的情况跟价格完全不符合。

really good and friend staff. great bar.little be cold in the lobby.but room is ok.the great wall if you stay more then 3days you can get 5% off discount .compare other here is good loction and cheaper

From a location perspective, it doesn't get much better than Sunrise Hostel: - 10-15 minute walk to the Tiananmen East subway station - 10 minute walk to Donghuamen Night Market - 15-20 minute walk to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City My private en-suite room (~$25) was very basic with a handful of pros and cons. Pros: - Nice and warm despite the Beijing winter - Spacious - Safe - Helpful front desk with activities and tours Cons: - The sheets, while clean, sported some discoloration…I advoided dwelling on this - The towels were rather musty smelling - The bathroom was smelly, and came with a very small roll of toilet paper and no soap Overall, it was a good base for budget sightseeing, but be prepared for very basic accomodations

So far we've stayed in 3 hostels here in Beijing and Sunrise Hostel has been our favorite. The staff is very friendly and the hostel seems to attract a young, talkative crowd. If you traveling solo or in a small group and you're looking to meet other travelers, this is the place for you. The hostel also has a cool little restaurant/bar which has cheep bear, soda, water and surprisingly good food. It's a cool little place to decompress after a long day of walking around the city. The location is top notch. A 10 min walk to Tianemen Square, Forbidden City, Wufunjing Shopping District, and night market.

Pros 1. very near to forbidden city 2. Tienanmen East station around 800 mts 3. Donghuamen bus stop - 50 meters 4. Nice english speaking staff, very cooperative, very friendly, very informative 5. free internet, free wifi 6. quite 7. but still happening 8. very Clean 9. cheap 10. provide tour, taxi services 11. All information available 12. latest English news paper, magazines available Cons I don't find any except that they charge for bicycle (in Xian it was free)

The hotel is well located and the cafe is pricey by local standards (but dirt cheap by western standards) and the food is fine. My big objection was being charged for ink marks on a sheet which was there when we arrived. It was a very disappointing and unfortunate end to an otherwise good stay. One ink mark is being charged out against each person who uses the sheet.

Sunrise Hostel is one of the good hostels in Beijing...and there are a good many of them.The location is excellent....walking distance to Tiamen Square and Forbidden City...also Warfunjing Street is just 5 minutes away...and a short walk away, is the "do not miss" attraction , the night market, selling all kinds of food on skewers,(and do savour the unexpected delights).The rooms are reasonably big and clean, though could have been more so..the aircon works ...and you can pay a little more for an ensuite. The hostel is all on one level, an added plus point to the older travellers.Lockers are available at no extra payment and also internet.The attached cafe gives reasonably good breakfast as well as some local dishes..but why eat here when all the delightful Chinese food is just a stones throw away.And finally the Reception is manned by youngsters who speak very good English...another plus point in China...and they are always willing to help in arranging tours, renting cycles, maps, and giving advise on how to take care and protect yourself and not get cheated....something very very common in Beijing.And take care...lots of fake currency in circulation.Avoid taxis and take the metros wherever you need to go...safer and cheaper.

As most people have pointed out, the location of this hostel is very good. Very much in the centre of Beijing, it is easy to reach and easy to get to all main attractions. The hostel itself is nothing special and one of the least ones I've stayed at in China (which is probably due to the fact that this is Beijing and not some small village in another province). Rooms are small, beds are small, and cleanliness is just about enough. Nothing too bad though, so I guess it is an OKish place to stay.

价格在北京还算是比较便宜的，里面的设施都太老了。内部装修、家具都时间比较长了没有换。床单和被罩也不怎么样，反正都是洗过的，还有坏的。在菜百附近，提供早餐，就给了一碗粥，一个鸡蛋，两个油炸的东西我也忘了。空间还行，就是设施不怎么样。通风效果也还行吧，是中式比较老的风格。

We stayed here for 6 nights in a standard twin room with a window overlooking the adjacent lane way. The basic twin rooms appeared to be on the other side of the hall and had a window that faced directly onto the adjacent rooms (so not much natural light). The room was basic and clean with reasonably comfortable single beds. It was rather musty smelling when we first arrived but opening the window during the day helped with the smell. The bathroom smelt very musty compared to most places we've stayed at in China so we left the extractor fan on when we were in the room. Other than that we thought the room was fine. We received a 20RMB meal coupon upon check-in for each night we stayed. This worked out to be an average free breakfast per day which wasn't too bad. We thought the rest of the food on the menu was priced on the high side, especially the snacks. However, there was Beijing draft beer on tap for 15RMB or 10RMB between 2 and 5PM. On our first night there we also had the free hot pot party – it was tasty and the servings were generous. Tiananmen Square East and Wanfujing Station on Line 1 were both only 10 minutes walk from the hostel. Although the location is central to Wanfujing shopping street, Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City, we found the location more a curse than a blessing. Tour buses were constantly stopping and pulling up along the main street, dropping groups off at the tour endorsed restaurants just near the hostel lane. The restaurants in the immediate area were all relatively expensive and rather average tasting compared to what you can get elsewhere in Beijing. This is not surprising considering the hostel is located in the main tourist zone of the nation's capital, but it was still the first time we felt like we were getting ripped off for trying local food in China. The corner shop near the hostel also liked to jack up the prices on the drinks they sold us, forgetting that they sold it to us earlier at a lower price (all foreigners look the same I guess). So far we've found shop keepers in China exceedingly honest with prices even though we barely speak two words of Mandarin - we were actually surprised (or disappointed) that the 'tourist tax' system has well and truly caught on in some parts of Beijing. The night markets and food streets are nearby but most of it is the tacky tourist rubbish you can get just about anywhere in the country. The food at the food street market area just up the road also overpriced and pretty average. If it's your first time in Beijing, or you have limited time in the city then the location isn't a bad bet, otherwise I think there are much better options available. We found the service from the staff excellent at times and not so good at others. They kindly helped us ring around for a hotel but then wouldn't call a taxi for the train station when it was raining and during peak hour. During the day the staff would often just hang out in the bar and watch a movie (loudly), sit on the computers / couch at reception or flirt with some of the longer term guests. We got the impression that most of the staff would hang around the hostel regardless of whether they were on duty or not. When the boss was around we noticed this didn't happen so much. Our room didn't have wi-fi so we had to sit in the bar to use the internet. It's OK if you're having a drink or eating but not so good if you just want to relax or use the internet quietly/Skype. Unfortunately there is no other common area so it's the bar or the one couch in reception. We had already spent a week in Beijing and had a few things we needed to organise for onward travel so this was a bit of inconvenience for us. All in all a fairly disappointing experience at Tian An Men Sunrise Hostel. There are plenty of other great budget/hostel options for a similar price in Beijing so do your research and choose wisely.

I stayed there on August 2011 as part of a solo travel to Beijing. I was very disappointed by the rooms which are old, dated and badly furnished. The hotel is well located to visit the forbidden city but very far from the rest of the city. I would recommend people to stay elsewhere unless you are looking for a backpacker scene. That is the only good thing about the hostel, there are lot of young guys meeting. Also the staff is very nice. Stay elsewhere if you are over 25 and looking for something a bit comfortable and convenient.

I stayed here for 1 week. Pretty good hostel. Good location. Staff are very helpful and kind. 2 toilets and 2 showers in the hall where I lived. the rooms are ok. aircon, bed and "locker". The food and drinks in the bar is good and cheap. Easy to meet fellow travelers. Internett is kinda slow. but who cares? Go for it!
