We stayed here for three nights in a very pleasant, very quiet double room, ensuite, and were most impressed. Indeed, writing this I have to remind myself constantly that I am writing about a youth hostel and not a hotel, as we have stayed in many European three star hotels that were not anything like up to this standard.

We stayed here for 8 nights in March 2012 and had a very good time. The private-double room we had was clean and simple, the only downside was its location right next to the communal bathroom. Fortunately the noise was not too much and we managed to get some good nights sleep (still I wonder what the people planning this... More

We loved this hostel. Friendly place, comfortable, right next to the Forbidden City. Rooms were comfortable, nice old wooden feeling. If you have children, it was welcoming and quiet. All well.

The location of the hostel is great if you're into the main attractions of Beijing (right next to the forbidden city wall). However, it is a bit far from the nearest subway station (Tienanmen east), which can be a bit headache if arriving/leaving by subway with big backpacks. The staff of the hostel is very helpful and they all speak... More

We booked a deluxe room for 2 persons with own bathroom. The night was around 50euros during the golden week, the most expensive period in the year I think. We had some trouble to find the hostel but after we did it, our bedroom was showed to us, and absolutely no disappointment (I'm used to go to 3/4 stars hotels... More

Nice location but don't expect too much. Small room. A double bed and table at the foot of the bed occupied the entire room. Strong WIFI connection near the reception area only. No WIFI signal inside the room. Relatively big bathroom and toilet. Clean towels, toilet paper, hot water, aircon available. Breakfast not included at approximately USD69 a night. If... More

I really enjoyed my stay at the Peking Youth Hostel & would recommend it incredibly highly to anyone considering staying in Beijing. Brilliant location, right next door to Forbidden City, close to subway & night markets. Rooms were lovely & clean, a bit small, but this did not bother us at all. Awesome staff, very helpful & never hesitated to... More
