THE YARD HOTEL BEIJING, Nanluogu Alley

The room size is comfortable for a couple. It comes with a sofa, coffee table, and a TV — perfect for relaxing. However, the TV charges for movies (like the Kiwi TV app), costing around ¥20–¥30 per movie. Bedsheets are changed once every three days, though you can request a change anytime if needed. The wooden floor keeps the room from feeling warm and cozy, especially during autumn and winter. The toilet bowl is sensor-activated, and the shower room is decent, though it may clog a little if you have long hair. Toothbrushes and combs need to be requested from the front desk. There’s a small fridge, hairdryer, kettle, and small teacups provided. Body and hair shampoo, as well as body lotion, are also available, though I didn’t use them. The room has two windows — highly recommended to book a room with windows during autumn or winter. Since the air conditioner only blows warm air during these seasons, opening the windows helps keep the room comfortable. There’s a reception counter downstairs, and you can easily order food or other deliveries through local apps — very convenient. The lobby also has a sofa and coffee table, but no breakfast is provided (I didn’t see any restaurant in the hotel). Do note that if you connect to the hotel Wi-Fi, you won’t be able to use WhatsApp or Instagram, as they’re not accessible on Chinese networks. The location is very convenient — just a 10–15 minute walk to popular spots like Nanluoguxiang (南锣鼓巷), Shichahai (十刹海), and Yandai Xiejie (烟袋斜街). It’s also within walking distance to McDonald’s. Calling a Didi (ride-hailing) is easy, and there are a few small bistros downstairs offering beer and cocktails at night — a nice touch for relaxing evenings.

The hotel is very clean and nice. The hotel looks just like the photos. I really enjoyed my stay. The hotel is located in a great spot. It's close to Nanguolu alley/ hutong (5 minute walk) and guijie street (20 minute walk). It is a 5 minute walk from the metro 8 line which can bring you to other big attraction areas in 3-4 train stops. There is also a luckin coffee close by. The staff is very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of restaurants nearby and the lobby also has a vending machine of snacks, noodles, and beverages which is convenient.

The hotel is very nice looking, with clean rooms and very helpful staff! Service is excellent! Loved it! Very good location, just 5 min walk from the Nanluoguxiang (Subway Station) and the Nanluogu hutong(delicious sweets at Bread town bakery & boba tea at Hey Tea). 2 stops from the main attractions.

Good location, near metro station and shops. Very spacious room. Standard hotel setting.

The hotel locates in an exclusive area with lot of great restaurants, and near subway station and historical places such as Lama temple. However my room was face the wall of the neighborhood. Next time I will book the better room fir the view. By the way, one of the best hotel in Beijing 😎

Beautiful hotel across the touristic area. The room was quiet, clean. The air temperature was perfect , which is a blessing during Beijing summer. 10 out of 10 experience
