20 Best Beijing Hotels - CNN Travel
That amazing opening ceremony or Usain Bolt's record-breaking 100-meter run might be what much of the public still remembers, but for travelers there's a more important legacy of Beijing’s Olympic Games party: hotel beds.Thousands of rooms and beds, from big-chain luxury operations to chic courtyard hostels, are left unfilled in the city.Lots of rooms means lots of bargains on Beijing hotel rooms.Whether you want to bathe like an emperor in the central business district (CBD) or drop a rucksack an alleyway near the Forbidden City, Beijing has got you covered in covers.
