Unless you like choking smog (see uploaded picture) and all-night heavy construction noise (dump trucks, jack hammers, etc.) avoid this place. Not to mention the unhelpful staff. The room itself was ok and the complimentary breakfast was decent - other than that, stay away.

This is a very good place to stay. HI express continues tio give you great value for the money. They have American style beds at probably half the cost of the big 5 star chains. They provide a very decent breakfast buffet that will keep you going most of the day. Their service is excellent. The only reason that I... More

Good value for the price but I cannot rate it as generous as other travelers. The staff were professional and helpful but this is an Express and if you have never been to China or Beijing I would recommend a higher end hotel unless you are on a tight budget. Location is probably not ideal for tourism but it is... More

Arriving at HI Express Huacai after a 11-hour trans-Pacific flight, I was exhausted. Once registered, I took my room key into the elevator, bags and all, and try to enter my room on the 12th floor, with no success. So back down I go, and it turned out that the desk staff had assigned me a different room actually. So,... More

From check in to check out the service provided is very professional. Property and the location is good enough for transit hotel in Beijing.

Next door there is a Carrefour where drinks and snacks can be purchased cheaply, as well as a wide variety of restaurants. Breakfast is acceptable, rooms comfortable with English... More

Our flight out of Beijing departed at 7:00am & we wanted to get to the airport plenty early...to save a few minutes of time from city center, we chose to stay at this hotel. Agree with over reviewers this isn't the place to stay for tourism, but as a launching point to/from the airport it works just fine. In particular... More

If you are transiting Beijing and need somewhere not too far from the airport and you do not need to get into the city centre, this is a convenient place to rest up. One big advantage over other Holiday Inn Express hotels is that it has an arrangement with a nearby fitness centre so you can use their gym and... More

This hotel is a perfect business hotel if you have meetings in this area : practical, efficient, wifi and free unlimited Internet acess. The surroundings are mainly local shops and simple restaurants. It is also only 30 mn away from the airport by taxi. However should you wish to visit Beijing as a tourist it is then suffering from it's... More
