This hotel is overdue for repairs and remodeling -the carpet is so dirty that's disgusting ! In February when it's sunny outside the indoor temperature was so high that's suffocating ! And the only option for hotel guests? Open the window! Not sure what's wrong with their HVAC?

CONS: The room was not very clean. The bathroom fixtures were broken and their was mildew all over the shower. We found random small bugs in the room on 2 or 3 counts. The walls have cracks and damage. Staff were also not super friendly. No one ever smiles at this hotel. PROS: very comfortable bed. Room is very quiet and black out blinds work great. Central location close to shopping and the university. Hotel and surrounding area felt very safe even at night.

It's toasting hot thru out our stay! The room temperature is 29 degree C. The hotel response- we can not turn on air conditioning for you. But why? They couldn't give an answer that makes sense. All they did was to give us a fan and tell us open the window, and they claim they are 5 star hotel. A two star can do better!

Extremely unpleasant experience. Terrible service, staff are unhelpful and cold, not to mention rather rude. Had to keep chasing them to do basic things like housekeeping or assisting in bringing down the luggages. I even ended up having to wait for about 3 hours before they finally decided they could spare some time to help me, and this was after multiple calls made to them and even making a few trips down to the front desk to request for help, where quite a few staff were just idling around.

I was quite shocked that they are also one of the rare few bigger hotels I stayed in China that does not have the food delivery robot, and the food delivery shelves are placed outside of the hotel, so if it's raining, it isn't very convenient. Note that the hotel also refuses to help sign for delivery parcels so it is quite troublesome to make separate arrangements.

Another thing I really disliked was that the front desk and concierge kept trying to shirk responsibilities. When you approach the front desk, more often than not, they'll try to direct you to the concierge which is usually not being attended by anyone.

The rooms are spacious but are quite old and aren't that clean either. Honestly, for the expensive price paid, it is very disappointing. Really, this hotel has nothing good going for it except for its prime location (right outside Tsinghua). If you aren't planning on going to Tsinghua for a long period of time, I highly discourage staying in this trash hotel.

Not terrible, certainly not amazing

I suspect this is only a hotel to use if you have particular reason to be in this area.

First an Expedia problem (I assume): we extended 1 more night (my mum is 79 so we didn't want to move rooms let alone hotel). All bookings were for 2 adults: hotel+breakfast but somehow the extra night booking stated on the reservation that only 1 person could have breakfast (unlike the earlier nights). Very odd. I didn't argue with the hotel and just paid extra since the reservation had the problem. A mistake by Expedia I assume.

The staff were lovely. We don't speak Chinese and they tried their best (two or three of them could more or less communicate with us for most issues).

The hotel was probably nice 5+ years ago but is dated now. We had numerous minor maintenance issues. No working aircon (possibly hotel policy as apparently moving room wouldn't have helped: it wasn't overly hot so we coped OK and they were kind enough to bring us a fan), kettle plug didn't work but we worked out it was the socket as it worked elsewhere, bathroom door kept getting stuck as a screw was loose and it took several minutes of fiddling each time to resolve etc.

Everything was a bit dated too but not too badly. Good sized rooms though.

We relied on Didi (China's uber as it were: a friend installed it on my Android phone via a local site as you can't from the normal Google Play -- there's no issue installing on iPhones I believe) so can't speak to taxi hailing.

Great Hotel in Haidian, Beijing

This is a wonderful hotel. The decor is very elegant, the carpets are plush, and they keep it up very well. Everything works - the hot water, elevators, phones, etc. The front desk does not speak English well, but the Bell Captain does and all of them have been extremely kind and helpful. Our group had a major problem - a Board member forgot that his reservation started on Sunday and was very upset when he arrived on Tuesday and had no room, and they may him pay again. But they resolved that problem. They were completely honest and clear about what happened, after we were able to overcome the language barriers. I will recommend this hotel to everyone I know coming to Beijing and staying in the Haidian district.

Difficulty at the desk

Arrived very late for check in, about 1 am. No record of my Expedia reservation. Desk staff would not call Expedia, so I made a series of calls to Expedia with bad connections. On my 4th try, the Expedia CS was very helpful and bore with the 30+ minute ordeal of faxing the reservation to the hotel... which it turned out they had! I had the distinct impression that the hotel staff did not fully understand their jobs. It should not take 45 minutes to check in and when there is a reservation problem, the hotel should make the call(s), not the guest.

Worst hotel ever. The so called 5-star can be at most rated 2-star in US.

The air conditioning is not automatic, meaning that the temperature is not adjustable and one has to turn it off if its too hot!

Already reviewed; Hotels.com lost track of it?

I stayed twice at this hotel recently. I have already been asked to send a review, and I did so last week: a long, carefully considered, critical but constructive review of this hotel (which has atrociously bad cafe management problems, and is otherwise only okay). But there's no sign of this review on your website. Perhaps this new prompt refers to my second stay, which would be understandable. But please understand that Hotels.com clients are not going to bother to make comments if all the effort gets lost in processing, as it appears happened in the case of my prior review.

Wenjin Desperately Needs Better Management

I've stayed at the Wenjin Hotel about 8 times since it opened, and it is really going downhill. It's starting to look dingy in the rooms and hallways. The service at the front and concierge desks are fine, and the cleaners are okay. But the cafe for breakfast has become utterly disgusting, with the central problem atrociously bad service. To find a place to sit you have to bus your own table, the dirty dishes just piling up, and you have to chase down clean silverware or chopsticks to eat. The food is blah, the coffee is lukewarm, and the tables have spilled food crusted on them. It is unbelievably bad for a so-called 5-star hotel. The hotel is otherwise passable (if overpriced), but if you stay there, for breakfast try the independent coffeeshop (Model Coffee) on the east end of the building. It's clean, they have a few breakfast items, and the coffee will be better, too. Meanwhile, Wenjin, please fire your cafe manager ASAP and hire some interior painters. Until then, I'm going to give the UnisCenter nearby another try.

Hassle under the sheen

The hotel is fine if things go well. But any issues are hard to resolve. When I arrived the staff seemed to have no idea about their 'executive' floor, which I had booked through an upgrade. I have no Chinese and the reception staff had almost no English. It took a good half hour to get the situation resolved. For the first four days I saw no one else on my floor or exec breakfast room. My room was fine at first sight. But details suggest a rush job, poor painting qualtiy, a balcony door gaffer taped shut. The toilet became blocked for no obvious reason (!) but was never fixed. A few problems with food too - out of date bottled juices on offer for breakfast. The location is to the northwest of the city - two subways ten minutes walk away help get into town, but it is a half hour ride. It is handy for the Summer Gardens, three stops up the line. A nearby technology park offers fair food.

Cons:
--Not near the center of Beijing-proper (about a 20 minute subway ride away)

The service has improved in many ways compared to previous reviews. Many of the front desk staff were able to communicate in English, and those who could not speak English well tried to communicate using a translation app on their smartphones.
The room was spacious enough to work in, but the facilities left some room for improvement: the electrical outlets were hard to use, and the shower water tended to spill outside the shower room.

The Wenjing is one of the better hotels if you have to visit Tsinghua or Beijing university. A bit dated though.
