Traveler Reviews
See what other travelers say about Great Wall Panoramic Viewing Platform
Commune by the Great Wall
I chose this hotel specifically to visit the Great Wall, and it turned out to be an absolutely perfect choice. The front desk staff, especially Yuan Yuan, was incredibly friendly and patient—she took the time to answer all our questions and even helped arrange transportation back from the ski resort, which was a huge convenience. The rooms are exactly as shown on the website: spacious, private, and beautifully designed like standalone villas. Cleanliness is top-notch, and every detail feels thoughtfully curated. Dining here was another highlight—the restaurant serves amazing food at very reasonable prices. I had the traditional Peking copper hotpot for under $40, which felt like a steal. Yes, you do need to take a shuttle between the main area and your room, but the shuttles run frequently, so waiting time is minimal. Overall, this stay exceeded all expectations. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s a memorable experience. I’ll definitely be coming back.
