Beijing is huge, and choosing the right area to stay can make your trip much easier. In this video guide, we share five of the best areas for visitors to stay in Beijing, including Wangfujing, Houhai/Shichahai, Guomao, Sanlitun, and Qianmen.
Before You Book Your Hotel in Beijing
Beijing is not a “walk everywhere” city.
The area you choose can affect your whole trip — how long it takes to reach the Forbidden City, whether restaurants are easy to find, how convenient the subway is, and what kind of Beijing atmosphere you experience.
That is why we made a full YouTube video about where to stay in Beijing. We also talk about where we do not recommend staying in Beijing, especially if it is your first visit.
Before you book your hotel, watch the full guide and choose the area that fits your travel style.
CocoMolly Tip
Do not choose a Beijing hotel only by price. Check the subway location, travel time, and neighborhood atmosphere first.
