This is not really a hostel, so if you're looking for the hostel atmosphere don't go here (I'm talking about the wings, I don't know about the main building).. But as a hotel/guesthouse it's just really good! The rooms are very clean and quite big. The location is in a hutong, but with a big shopping street around the corner. It's very good and a nice neigbourhood, but quite far from most sights.. I saw one staff member that spoke very good english, but the other ones don't speak! Patricia, from Netherlands ~ 4th Nov 2011

Place a little bit noisy (all the room are in front of the commune place). Rooms are corrects. Good situation (near ligne 4 and 2). Just, personnal has very unfriendly and looks so boring to help us. robert, from France ~ 10th Oct 2011

The hostel has a lot of character and was clean. The staff were helpful and could speak fairly good English. It is not a long walk to a subway station, but it is not close to the main sights. I would definitely recommend it. Stephanie, from Wales ~ 13th Sep 2011

I really enjoyed staying at Red Lantern House. The staff speak very good English and were extremely helpful and honest. When my friend and I had difficulty finding the place upon arriving in Beijing, I called Red Lantern and handed the phone to the taxi driver, and soon we were there. They took care of booking the tours for us and helped us locate places on the map. They will also write down in Chinese characters anything you need to say to a taxi driver to help you find a place. We enjoyed the Lisa, from USA ~ 7th Apr 2011

Hostel itself is nice, well-located and very cosy, in a traditional hutong, Beijing style. Great Kashgar restaurant nearby... BUT... the toilet and shower were terrible, under construction during my stay, very inconvenient. It is very noisy and crowded, seems that all stuff and their friends live there! It was also very cold, with a heater running as it wanted, not as we needed it to run... If you have other options go for THEM! Krusiewicz, from Poland ~ 24th Mar 2011
