I've just spent a week in the Kapok Hotel in Beijing and would highly recommend the hotel to anyone who wants a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city. The staff all spoke good English, very unusual but extremely useful over there, were polite and cheerful and went out of their way to be helpful. It's a boutique hotel... more

This review is fresh off the oven, having returned from china only this morning. Kapok is without doubt, a great hotel, situated minutes from the forbidden city and tianamen square. It is one of those boutique hotels which break away from the norms set by bigger chains, so if you're looking for something like the sheraton or the crown plaza... more

I chose this hotel, cause I was very interested in #10 ranking hotel among over 500 hotels in BJ at the rather economical price. Pls dont expect something like Penninsula or Regent which are ranking below this hotel at Tripadvisor.com because you dont pay that much. For those who travel very often worldwide can accept this hotel, but for those... more

MY TRAVEL STYLE: I hate business hotels and strongly prefer resorts that resemble the Four Seasons, Aman, and Oberoi but try to find similar properties at lower cost. I seek out the “wow” experiences and I encourage you to view hotels I have stayed at and their respective reviews (by clicking on my name). LOCATION: Perfect! 20 minutes walking distance... more

This hotel was unexpectedly AWESOME. Our suite was amazing, large, dark wood floors, contemporarily decorated and furnished, computer w/ internet in our room, flat screen TV, and a bathroom to die for..... all glass walls overlooking street, glass walls in bathroom! and a soup bowl bath tub... about 4' round & 2 1/2' deep and a great shower. (even the... more

Stayed at Kapok from March 13-16, 2008 and we loved it! The Hotel is modern, sleek and very stylish. It has a unique sense of style not typical of a Chinese hotel. Hotel staff can speak a bit of english and are friendly. We booked through the internet and got a fashion room for 680 CNY per night . The... more

When we were in Beijing we started by staying in a typical old-fashioned court yard hotel. However our second day walking around the city we accidently walked by Kopac hotel and were intrigued by the interesting facade of the building. We asked to see one of the rooms and decided directly to leave our other hotel and move to Kopac.... more

Stayed here in January and thought it was a great hotel. We had a suite and it was a really good size with lovely sofas and big bed (albeit a bit hard!). The bathroom was fabulous and had the biggest bath I had ever seen! Location was great - walking distance to Forbidden City and Tianamen Square and frequent taxis... more

This hotel is an excellent choice for tourists. The location is right in the center of all the activities for active travelers. Wangfujing street is the main shopping area for tourists and it is right next to the Forbidden City. My wife and I walked to Tianenmen Sq, Forbidden City, Beihai Park, and several other parks in the area. The... more
