The Great Wall Courtyard Hostel

Everything was great about our stay here, especially the lovely staff that made our stay so memorable. They were unbelievably kind and helpful - breakfast was also delicious which was an added bonus!

Parfait

Personnel très accueillant et qui fait son maximum pour nous contenter. Excellent petit déjeuner, établissement très propre et authentique et à 15 minutes à pied de la muraille !

The staff were so nice. The hostel was absolutely beautiful, I could not get enough of all the details. Breakfast was good.

The beds were not the most comfortable, we could feel the springs through the mattress.

Everything. The lovely old couple who own/run the hostel were so welcoming, helpful and kind to us. Location was absolutely perfect. Plenty of places to eat around too. The breakfast they made us was so delicious. Rooms were very comfortable, have no complaints at all!

Nothing!! It was great

Sehr nettes Personal Leckeres Frühstück

Hat alles gepasst :)

Excellent stay, free upgrade for a bigger room, spacious bathroom, excellent breakfast in the morning

Absolutely, fantastic.

Nos atendieron súper amables hasta nos prepararon cena, un lugar único y muy recomendable.

Auberge au calme et idéalement située, à 15 minutes à pied de la gare et de la Muraille de Badaling. Le patio intérieur, grandiose, invite à la sérénité et les plats et petits-déjeuners faits maison sont tout simplement délicieux !

The rustic and laidback environment, friendly staff, traditional breakfast wanton soup served. This hostel is located in an ancient town off the hustle and bustle of Badaling entrance to Great Wall. It is a nice long walk to get to the entrance of the attraction.

Nothing in particular. Hosts are generally accomodating, breakfast is served between 7 to 8am, so be aware if you like to sleep in.

Cada rincón merece una foto. Si quieres vivir una experiencia 100% china, es tu alojamiento. Las habitaciones correctas. La cama es tipo futón y el desayuno tradicional chino, ciertamente, curioso el lugar. Las fotos son algo desactualizadas. Todo estaba limpio y se puede visitar la muralla de Badaling, andando

Faltaba un poco de espacio en la habitación

Nous avons adoré être ici. Nous avons été accueillis très chaleureusement et avons bien dormi et bien mangé. C'est un endroit stratégique pour visiter la grande muraille. C'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrons.

万里の頂上のケーブルカー乗り場までゆっくり歩いて20分程のとてもアットホームなホテルです。 部屋は清潔で、中庭も伝統的な中国様式の素敵な内装でとてもリラックス出来ます。 ホテルの外はゆったりとした雰囲気で、すぐ隣に小さなスーパー、レストランも数軒あり、何も困る事はありません。 朝食もボリュームたっぷりで、大変満足しました。 万里の頂上近くでホテルを探している方に、このホテルを強くお勧めします！

Blízko Čínské zdi.

Trošku slabší snídaně.

TUTTO! SIAMO ARRIVATI TARDI E CI HA ASPETTATO. GENTILISSIMA. COLAZIONE OTTIMA. COMODISSIMO PER ANDARE A PIEDI A VEDERE LA MURAGLIA. BELLISSIMA ESPERIENZA.

Nulla

L’emplacement ideal proche de l’entrée de la muraille et du téléphérique, de la gare ferroviaire également. Plein de restaurant typique a 0- 1-2 min de marche et très bons. ils nous ont proposé de faire une visite de la muraille nocturne juste magnifique à au moins Une fois dans sa vie. les deux employés ( mari et femme) étaient super aimables attentionnés et serviables . la déco juste magnifique et authentique. la patio est très conviviale . Et si jamais en étant de dos a la porte de l’hôtel, prenez à droite descendez env. 200 m et il y a un vieux monsieur qui pose sa table à l’ombre et ses deux perruches et il fait de magnifiques tableaux à l’encre de chine. et pas cher déjà encadré. 😉

Ont dit dormir sur un matelas dur est bon pour le dos mais là c’était d’outre monde lol.

Surprised and delighted us at every turn. A charming and peaceful place. Very cosy and welcoming.

A traditional SiHeYuan, quite near the train station. Once you reach the BaDaLing Train Station, you need to descend and walk around 1KM to the Hostel.

The walking distance to the Hostel, we travelled during the Summer, very hot.

Absolutely amazing stay for those looking for an authentic place near the great wall. The breakfast was amazing and extremely filling. The key highlight was the staff - they were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to help you get settled and introduce you to the surroundings. It genuinely felt like I was staying with relatives. 10/10 would recommend

It's cute hotel, interior is very beautiful. Breakfast was tasty. Hotel is near placement to The Grand Wall

Nice traditional antique building but not like the photos.

Long waiting to open the door, needed to ask the neighbors for help and when got in they doubted my reservation, not prepared at all.

It’s really more a hotel or Bed and Breakfast than a hostel because you do get your own private modern bathroom plus hearty Asian breakfast style comes with the stay! Love the heated floors, comfortable firm bed, rain shower faucet, nice hot showers appreciated during my cold winter stay. Close walking distance to the S2 train, bus 919 and the express train is about 15 min walk away from the hotel located in the small historic district. Driver service for small fee is also available.

Hard to find in the beginning. Better directions would be helpful.

It’s great place, warm and so friendly. Near by Great wall

The owners of the hostel wete extremely kind and welcoming. I really enjoyed my stay at The Great Courtyard Hostel.

Nice staff, good breakfast. Room was very clean. Location is good - close to chinese wall.

Privacy could be improved - as room is right next to the restaurant, I could hear everything that went on outside (and vice versa). Better sound isolation would be nice.

Very warm and friendly welcome and the breakfast was a lovely traditional Chinese breakfast. Great beds, gives a good chinese feel

Clean, well located and staff was very kind and helpful

Lovely hotel a short walk (20min) from the Badaling Great Wall. The staff were very helpful and got us tickets to visit the wall at night. The rooms, the entrance and the main hall were all beautifully decorated. Would recommend.

Their English is not good but they always use a translator.

The service is unbeatable, very kind and helpful. They always try their best to make our stay confortable. The experienece was unforgettable and we recommend this place to sleep if you want to visit the great wall 100%. We will repeat for sure.

Nothing, everything was perfect

Great place. Wonderful staff. Breakfast traditional Chinese was excellent

Beds were very hard like anywhere in China. I just asked for another comforter to sleep on. It was fine.

The hostel exceeded my expectations, it was like a 3 star hotel. Very clean, specious room. The location was great, 10min walk to the Great Chinese wall entrance. The host was really polite and always responded to our questions promptly. She did try her very best to assist with everything she could even with her limited knowledge of English.

Staff were fantastic, couldn’t do enough for you. Although they spoke no English , using translations app work out ok.

I like to room, the heater is on the floor so we can stay warm. The property is very near to Great wall. With the good planning we can stay more days and enjoying the Great wall

We did not plan it well so we spent too much time and money on the travelling in and out between Ba Da ling and Beijing. We should have stayed few days to enjoy the scenery.

Cosy room adjacent to a semi-heated courtyard. The heated floors in the room were AMAZING! Outside -10, inside toasty +20. And I mean, the floor was actually almost hot.

Personally, I guess I'm not a fan of the traditional Chinese breakfast, but it was nice experience to try it, anyway.

Even though the 2 ladies did not speak english, they were wery helpful. You wont get service like that in a hotel.

Could not pay AMEX even though it was booked like that on booking.com, fortunately had different card to pay, but minor inconvenience

The couple there were absolutely lovely and welcoming. They were happy to show us directions and regardless of the language barrier they did the most to help :)

Lovely lady ! Mami vibes haha clean and super close to the Great Wall

The hosts are very friendly, helpful and very facilitating. It was a great pleasure to meet them!

The beds are a bit too strong and hard…

Loved the ambience, staff, the room. The location was close by to the entrance of the Great Wall.

Nothing. I loved everything about it.

Excellent location and beautiful decoration showing Chinese culture

It would be nice if the breakfast has more options

Very authentic and cosy hotel with inner courtyard. Very kind and helpful staff. Close to Great Wall.

Beautiful place to be if you are going to visit The Great Wall. Very nice Staff. Proper Toilets, Shower all you need for a short Stay.

Incredible Design with pieces from all over the world. Very friendly staff.

The breakfast wasn't to my western taste. But good coffee ☕

Host was very friendly and helpful. I went for the great Wall marathon and he even gave me a lift to the venue the next morning.

It was a bit noisy at night time. It didn't get quiet until about 11pm. Normally, this wouldn't have been a problem but I wanted an early night to get up a race the next day.

Friendly staff, near the train station and near the Great Wall entrance.

it‘s sweet place, the staff was super nice and it was easy to get around. Also, it was no problem to check-in as foreigners and the heating in the room was good as it had a floor heating. The main hall was rather cold, but they put on an oven for us. It can be reached easily from the train station and it’s less than a 5 minutes walk into the “old” town. we totally recommend this place.
