Commune by the Great Wall

Commune by the Great Wall is in a very nice location only about 30 minutes away from the Badaling section of the Great Wall. The staff here was extremely helpful, especially for someone who doesn't speak much Chinese. The area is pretty far removed from any other services or restaurants, so unless you have your own transportation, you will be mostly eating at the hotel. Luckily, the food is absolutely delicious and extremely well prepared at the restaurant offered by the hotel. It's also in a beautiful natural area with a lot of nice forested areas to explore right outside your hotel room. Yang was especially helpful and assisted me in getting a ticket and taxi to the Badaling Great Wall.

I strongly recommend this place to any family with kids. The service was excellent and everyone was friendly. My 3-year-old daughter loved the commune of the children. Tina was extremely helpful and patient. Thank you!

The hotel is at the foot of the mountain with a lot of trees. Very nice place for the summer retreat. It is only 1 mile away from 水关长城 where is much less visited and is part of the Great Wall of east side of 八达岭长城。
