Commune by the Great Wall anmeldelser

Highly recommended! We booked 3 rooms and were put into a forest house villa. The villa is huge, clean, and the heater/air-conditioning working perfectly. There was even floor heating in the living room. We booked dinner on the first night at their in-house restaurant and it was perfect. They took their initiative to make a bowl of noodles for my sons birthday (Chinese tradition). They have an in-house shuttle that would take you to shi guan great wall (5mins drive) but it requires you to wait a bit. Alternatively it's a 15-20min walk to the hotel. Perfect service from oliver and Eva (and everyone else in the hotel including the lovely drivers). Highly recommended! I think the only thing that will make the experience even more superb is if the private access to the great wall reopens, or if they could incorporate a architectural drive-around tour of the gorgeous villas there.

I had wanted to visit this place when it was first open some 20 years ago but just missed it. Now l come as a tourist but to my mind, it is still iconic. We were not able to book the posher bigger houses but these rooms suites are just as nice. There is a girl at the reception desk who is very friendly and helpful. She speaks better Cantonese than my Mandarin. I would like to come again in not so cold days!!

I had a wonderful experience with the service provided. The gateway is highly recommended for anyone looking for a seamless and pleasant journey. Special thanks to Lee, the duty manager, for ensuring everything ran smoothly, and to Chen Xiao Niu, the driver, whose positive attitude and cheerful smile made the trip even more enjoyable.  .

The location is good but it’s not so close to The Great Wall as I thought. If you are planning to go in the winter season think twice, the heat system is not enough and the portable heater they can land is enough only to heat very close to the bed.

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.

Not comparable anymore to what it was 10 years ago. poor infrastructure condition, bad level of english. poor restaurant quality

One of my favore spot in beijing. With Hyatt service is the just the best getaway from beijing. I feel even far away you are in good hand. :) The golden autumn just so beautiful .

very good hotel - excellent environment and good view， clean and good services

My room was upgraded to a suite — I’m so grateful! There was a fruit plate waiting for me in the room, which was warm and air-conditioned. The shower/bath are amazing, and the view of the mountain from my bedroom window was so soothing. It was the best thing to see in the morning.

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!

Theres not much to do around. The menu is completely Chinese. Nothing western. Same as the drinks. The staff is literally 4 people, which makes things quite difficult in case you need assistance. When we arrive to the hotel, the check in said 3pm but they only gave us our room around 4:30! The said they gave us an upgrade for the delay. Our room had a balcony, which was locked when we arrived. It took about 1 hour for someone to come and open the door from the balcony. The pool was closed also…they said they only open the pool around July! We were clearly in summer when we decided to book so the weather was perfect for a pool day but they didn’t have it available.

Good service, very helpful staff

Beautiful place, beautiful architecture. Cleanliness could be improved in the rooms (especially bathroom) and public area of the house. We were in the bamboo house, it was amazing otherwise. Customer service fabulous as well. The pool is unfortunately open only 1-6 PM.

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。
