Homestays in Miyun

Everything. The vibe, comfort, location, cleanliness, owner, food. The best

This homestay is by far my favourite place I’ve stayed in China. As a solo traveller it felt so nice to be in a family environment and feel at home. They make such an effort to be friendly and chat and I couldn’t have had a better time! They arranged everything for me and made breakfast and dinner which was all delicious! The rooms are also so nice and was a lovely place to relax after a day of hiking. The parts of the wall you can go to are also so so beautiful and so quiet if you are visiting the Great Wall I don’t think you could visit anywhere better than here! They also drop you off and pick you up and are available if you need any help. They are such fun and kind people and I was so sad to leave! Hope to be back one day to visit in the summer time :)

Beautiful area, easy to get to from station (walk down the wooden stairs) Host is absolutely amazing and speaks good English ! Definitely would recommend this place

I cannot recommend this property enough. The family who run the property were so helpful, kind and generous. They went out of their way to help us- booking transport and catering meals, making recommendations for our trip. To get here, we took the bus from Beijing to Gubeikou Water town and stayed 2 nights here, then took the train from Gubeikou back to Beijing. The couple cooked us vegetarian dinner, breakfast and made us packed lunches for our day hike along the wall. Delicious homemade Chinese food! The property is so conveniently located to access three parts of the Great Wall: Pandong is 5mins walk, Jinshaling is 20-30mins by car and Gubeikou water town is 15mins by car. The hosts helped us organise transport to the property and plan our visit to the wall. Translation was no problem- we used WeChat translate and Google translate to communicate. And we used AliPay to pay for everything while we were there. There was a fussball table, scooters and skateboard toys for our daughter to play on whilst we were at the property too.
