Hotels with Parking in Simataicun

breakfast and dinner were incredible home cooked meals and very cheap. The staff wass exceptionally friendly, a lovely elder couple.

We had an absolutely wonderful two-night stay here with our two children. The homestay was spotless, very comfortable, and perfectly suited for families, with plenty of games and activities for kids — our children even ended up playing with the hosts’ children, which created some truly special memories. The hosts were exceptionally kind and helpful throughout our stay. They helped us organize everything for our visit to the Great Wall, including an unforgettable hiking day ending directly at the homestay. They also assisted us with transportation, meals, and many practical details that made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. A special mention goes to the food: breakfast, lunch, and dinner were all absolutely outstanding — generous, homemade, and delicious, prepared by the host, who is clearly a fantastic cook. We even had the chance to cook together and share great moments playing foosball and table tennis. The location itself is also incredible: a beautiful and well-preserved part of the Great Wall area, far from the overcrowded tourist spots. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable experience.

I chose this hostel as a base for visiting the Great Wall of China. There are a couple of ways to arrive there, the owner provides all the information after booking. My way: from Beijing North Station I took the "Huaimi line of suburban railway" to Gubeikou town. I bought the ticket at the train station 3 hours in advance and it costs 12 CNY. The trip takes ~2,5 h. From the station, a taxi took me to the hostel (~4KM, 20 CNY). It was arranged by the hotel in advance. Once you arrive you find yourself in a kind or yoga retreat. Calmness, tranquility, good vibes. I was lucky enough to have the dorm all to myself. The bunk beds are old styled, no curtains/bed light/bed socket. But my mattress was comfy. The bathroom area is excellent. Lots of toiletries are there for you to choose. And yes, the toilets are Japanese style! For extra payment you can have dinner and breakfast, all chinese style, cooked in their kitchen, mainly vegetarian. And before even settling down, Xiaowei (the owner) tells you everything about the trail you are going to follow the next day. She uses a translation gadget and sends crucial photos of the path through "Wechat" application. She and her assistant Lynn accomodate any need you might have, always smiling and thoughtful.

Bed are nice and everything is kept very well, can be difficult to find at first

Very nice host. Many thanks to him for taking us around neighborhood. Peaceful location near the Great Wall. We dived just for two nights into a village life, that was an unforgettable experience for us

The place is beautiful, clean, and comfortable—perfect for groups, with a BBQ area available. The bathroom is lovely, and the location shouldn’t be a problem if you rent a car or arrange transfers. The TV offers a wide variety of movies to enjoy. The dining area is right next to the house, which is very convenient. The cook and the host are both kind and take great care of guests. The breakfast is simple but delicious and very fitting.

Great balcony view of the Simatai Wall at night! Very cozy bed and hot shower. Quiet and inviting location.

Smooth checking process, helpful point of contact

The staff went out of their way to help accomodate my needs as I was prepping for my marathon on the wall. Extremely grateful!
