Lonely Planet review
Clearly designed for the middle-management business traveller, the Chongwenmen has a reasonably full range of facilities, but it's also a good option for the casual visitor. Rooms are bright, clean, well maintained and simply furnished. Higher floors even have wide-open city views.
A major renovation back in 2004 added some glitz, and a midrange in Běijīng without too many scuffs and dirty carpeting is to be respected. Bellhops add a measure of gentility to the place, as do fresh flowers in the rooms. The decent restaurant and bar options mean you don't have to scoot out the front door as soon as you leave your room. All in all, you'll find this place a clear step up from a budget hotel (but a step down from top end spots). One unbeatable feature is the location just metres from the underground. Tiananmen Square is one stop to the west and the train station one to the east.
