Very helpful staff. The staff spoke English and were able to write things in Chinese so we could buy train tickets. Their help was much needed and much appreciated. The restaurant is nice to hang out in. It has good food, and again friendly staff. The location is initially hard to find, but is close to the subway. So it... More

Excellent facilities, lovely bright room with en suite, laundry, bar and very cheap tours. Great location, next to the tube and 'Ghost street'. The bar makes a good breakfast ( usually difficult to find) and has themed nights, pizza, make your own dumplings, happy hour and a full menu of delicious food. The main thing is the hospitality though, they... More

Reading the reviews below they have either made dramatic improvements or I'm just lucky. Communication in China is difficult so good English speaking friendly staff really make a place and can dramatically improve your travelling experience that's what I've encountered here. Everything is on your doorstep, 3 minutes from subway, several banks, foreign exchange, supermarket, bakery, passport pictures and outdoors... More

It was really clean and amazing value. The staff all spoke perfect English and went out of their way to help you. They had an affordable restaurant/bar that was open early, really good value for money, and the food was decent (western and chinese options). I'd definitely recommend that anyone visiting Beijing to stay here. Their tours/attractions were also extremely... More

Dragon King Hostel is handily located next to a subway and near a lot of restaurants, atms and a 7/11. The rooms in the hostel are big, decent enough beds and hot powerful showers.

Had a nice stay here and it's a great value. Dorms included towel and showers had soap/shampoo. Everything very clean and restaurant food was good. Also close to a Metro stop and near city center. Will stay here again

I enjoyed my stay at the Dragon King Hostel, the dorm room was clean, comfortable and value for money if you book online, prices are higher if you turn up at the door. The staff were very friendly and always available for help. WIFI is available in rooms although sometimes temperamental. The Dragon King is just up the road from... More

As an 18 year old female moving to Beijing to teach English, I had never even stayed at a Hostel prior to this week. I was so, so grateful for my decision to stay at the Dragon King Hostel. (Also once known as the 9 Dragons House and the Xinmao youth hostel.) The staff were so wonderful, so helpful and... More

Having read previous reviews I've got to be honest- I seem to have had a good stay overall. Rooms were clean, bathroom was clean, all towels and linens were clean and the Hot, Hot shower was very welcome!!!! The one thing that lets it down, is the restaurant. Yes I was part of a large group and on the first... More
