Bring my aging parents to Beijing first time. They can't walk far so hotel must be close to subway.

Been searching around. Booked holiday inn express 10 nights rm3800 a room, it's free cancellation . Looking for a cheaper alternative and found many local hotels rm150-200 don't accept foreigners! Lucky didn't book n prepay or else burn rm2000.

Anyone can recommend which hotel they stayed before? Found ibis, near tiantandongmeng station but rooms really bare n small.. similar to tune hotel Johor.

Thanks in advance.

For my work trips, Swissotel is good. Right in front of Chaoyang subway station, in Ssanlitun district.

You have no choice because of the foreigners rule. They become more anti foreigners since COVID. Stick to international chain

No foreigners hotel does not passed the safety requirements, hence it may not be safe for foreigners to stay there. Not because of what u think...

If with parents I rather choose the all-arranged tour package (hotel + travel + meals + tickets etc).

I rather having tour agency to greet them at the hotel lobby every morning than go pusing pusing looking for train/taxi.

Also tour agencies are familiar with emergencies, hospitals and local insurances.
Bringing old folks jalan jalan always has higher risks.
