Beijing Lotus Hostel was a really nice choice for the single traveler. And I here the double rooms are great as well. The building was clean and bright and felt very welcoming. They had a wonderful, friendly and professional staff. The common room was really nice with lots of options for things to do. There was a tv and dvd player, tables at which food could be served to you, couches and conversation setups, a pool table, darts, books galore and lots of board games. My only complaint is that the showers and toilets weren't great. The building had no water pressure, so showering was long and tedious and chilly, and the toilets didn't flush well, creating problems. Be prepared all the drains in China have an odor, and Lotus Hostel was no different. But I would definately stay there again.
Traditional looking hostel with a super friendly staff!

Traditional looking hostel with a super friendly staff that speak English very well. The staff helped us out tons with directions, booking trips, and even practicing some Chinese. We will definitely remember them. The common room is a great place to meet other travelers and also play games or watch movies. The internet is very cheap to use. Phones are available for international calls. You can order delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinners. Must visit Houhai Park and Dongcheng District!
