Hotels in Gubei Water Town, Miyun

Such a lovely family running this guesthouse. This is my second time staying with them. I try to come back to Jingshaling every year in the fall (it is glorious ). The place is fantastic. They organize my transport from the airport for a very honest price. The food is SO MUCH and SO GOOD. XIE XIE to the lady that runs the place. If you want authentic countryside Chinese experience, this is the place.

Perfect Gubei Water Town Stay! This boutique villa was amazing—clean, cozy, and just steps from the scenic area. Loved the comfy room, great amenities (parking, pet-friendly!), and lovely views. The host was helpful too. Highly recommend!

Short walking distance to Gubei Watertown entrance. Nice & helpful owner. Great stay 😊

A little piece of heaven, amazing setting with small front garden. Clean very new modern rooms that are well arranged and managed. Amazing shower, very good mattresses, small shared kitchen, living room and a great host that really goes out of her way to make you feel at home. The breakfast was prepared with lots of love. I would have loved to be able to stay longer. Thank you!

Incredibly welcoming. All facilities were in great condition and very clean. The dinner cooked at the stay was delicious also and they were extremely helpful with information and making my stay as comfortable as possible.

We were extremely happy with our decision to stay at this lovely family-run accommodation. The hosts were exceptionally kind and helpful. We were welcomed with warm smiles and a basket of fresh fruit, and on the day of our departure—when we were running a little late—they even offered us a free ride to the bus station. Such genuine kindness truly made our stay special. Our room was spotless, beautifully decorated, cozy, and perfect for a good night’s sleep. The beds were very sturdy and comfortable. The whole place has a peaceful family-home atmosphere, and it’s clear that the owners take great pride in keeping everything clean, comfortable, and welcoming. The property is set in a quiet little village with a couple of nice family-run restaurants just a short walk away. It’s about a 20-minute walk to Beijing Wtown and the bus station along a quiet paved path by the river. The walk is lovely, with beautiful nature views, and there’s even a small riverside park with towers and sculptures that light up beautifully in the evenings—great for photos. If you prefer not to walk, there are plenty of Didi drivers available at any time, and the ride to the accommodation costs only 10–14 RMB. For travelers coming from Beijing, I highly recommend taking the direct bus, which costs 48 RMB per person and takes around two hours to reach the Water Town Bus Station (cash only). The bus leaves from Dongzhimen Outer Bus Station (东直门外) at 09:00 and 13:00, and returns from Water Town at 12:00 and 17:00. Just wait beside the brown signboard that lists all departure times. Beijing Wtown itself is absolutely stunning—full of canals, traditional architecture, small cafés, restaurants, and even boat rides that glide through the waterways, making the whole place feel like a fairytale village. In the evening, when the lights come on, the scenery becomes truly magical. At 20:40 there is a drone show with the illuminated Great Wall in the background, which is unforgettable.

The family is a wonderful host with amazing food, very spacious and clean rooms and perfect location for the Wall-Entrance. A perfect place to relax, to hike and to enjoy the scenery and nature. Very highly recommended!

great breakfast--- both asian and western. we were able to start our hike with full bellies. The bed were very comfortable and spacious. when we arrived it was 0C and the heat worked great!
