Beijing Gubei Water Town Dream Back to The Great Wall Resort Villa

The view was absolutely amazing. The room was very large with kitchenette and balcony. Would highly recommed. Message a day before to set up a meeting point.

We had a great 4-star experience staying at this villa. The standout advantage is definitely the location—it is literally a 5-minute walk from Gubei Water Town. Being this close made it effortless to enjoy the water town and the breathtaking illuminated Great Wall late into the evening and simply stroll back. The accommodation itself was very budget-friendly, yet the room was surprisingly spacious, well-equipped, and comfortable, offering unbeatable value for money. The only minor downsides were that the host speaks limited English, and our taxi driver had a hard time finding the building entrance on the first try. Using a translation app helped bridge the language gap, and having clear local directions for your driver will save time upon arrival. Overall, highly recommended for visitors looking for convenience and great value near Gubei Water Town!

Liked: La posizione vicina alla muraglia

Disliked: Le foto della stanza sul sito non sono per niente simili a quelle della stanza in realtà. La stanza non era pulita per nulla

First of all, this hotel is located outside the Gubei Water Town (a 3-minute walk). Therefore, you need to buy an admission ticket for the area on a daily basis. The hotel check-in and the admission ticket are separate. Please be really careful about this! Not checking that before going in, I wasted 4 hours in confusion as I couldn’t communicate in English. The staff are very kind. It’s very beautiful! Great location! Whether you choose this place with the best cost-performance or opt for the resort on-site for convenience is up to you.

Liked: Wir hatten einen rundum gelungenen Aufenthalt und haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Die Unterkunft hat unseren Erwartungen voll entsprochen: Alles war sauber, ruhig und für unsere kleine Familie perfekt geeignet. Die Lage ist hervorragend, sodass viele Sehenswürdigkeiten und Einrichtungen schnell erreichbar sind. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die ausgezeichnete Kommunikation mit dem Host – auf Fragen wurde immer schnell reagiert und wir haben uns jederzeit gut betreut gefühlt. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und würden die Unterkunft jederzeit weiterempfehlen.

Very bad experience. As soon as I turned on the heating a strong cigarette smell spread through the whole room. Curtains walls everything was soaked with it. The owner just told me to move to another room in the suite but it was exactly the same. I had to sleep without heating in the cold just to avoid the smell. The only “solution” was spraying air freshener which made it even worse. I ended my stay early. I accepted to pay the first night despite how awful it was and the fact I couldn’t sleep. But he still made me pay for the second night even though I had already left because it was impossible to stay + his reaction was to say that I was “too sensitive”. Dishonest and disrespectful. Avoid.

Good experience

Liked: 房間簡單舒適，房東也十分親切的回應，最棒的是它的露台，夜晚可欣賞古北水鎮及司馬台長城的夜景！真的很棒，住兩晚非常悠閑、愉快！
