Traveling out of Beijing this National Holiday is going to be challenging. Whether you can return in time for school and meet all their return policy requirements is a tough call. So, without leaving the city, here are the family-friendly staycation deals happening in town that’ll give you the relaxation and fun you want all while staying within the city limits.
Staycation at Artyzen Habitat Dongzhimen Beijing
Pricing: RMB 1,188 per night
Artyzen is one of those hotels that has fantastic offerings but sometimes seems to get forgotten. Located right by MOMA, it’s within walking distance from a huge outdoor playground that’s completely free for kids of all ages. Inside the hotel, they offer that luxury hotel dining without the high expensive prices at the family-friendly San Restaurant. While parents dine, kids can play and read at the play area at the entrance of the restaurant.
This holiday, they’re offering a staycation package that lets you enjoy all of it for RMB1,188. Spend a night in the 55sqm Santury Suite with a king bed or the 60sqm Habitat with twin beds including breakfast for two adults. This staycation package also includes a set dinner for two adults and one kids’ meal.
Pro tip:
During your stay be sure to either order waimai or ask for toiletries or something at least once. Artyzen delivers things to the rooms with a super cool robot. The kids will definitely enjoy seeing this surprise when they open the door.
