In a prime location within the popular shopping district of Ximen, the Green World Hotel is a fantastic place to stay. The decor is a bit outdated, but they doesn’t take away from our experience staying here. The hotel, for the most part, is well taken care of, with very clean rooms and amenities, I’m very satisfied with our stay in that aspect.
Sound proofing was good enough I think. Our room was on the street side and the sound of all the motor bikes still gets through, but it’s muffled enough that it didn’t disturb our sleep.
The breakfast is okay, especially the local dishes. I would say that the breakfast bar’s short comings are with the western style options, such as the milk not actually being milk but half and half or the toast spreads aren’t good.
One major thing I am deducting points on is that the front desk called us at 10:30 pm, when we were already asleep, to tell us that an order we placed had arrived. The order was not a time sensitive matter and could have either waited until the morning or they could have simply left a note on our door or just waited until we checked out.
Overall, the experience was okay despite some annoyances. I’d recommend that the front desk does not contact their customers late into the evening unless requested to do so. That’s one way to really anger someone and prevent them from wanting to stay again.
I’m not sure if we’d stay here again, but it’s possible.
