Hotels near Houtian Temple

"So I’ll lead off by saying this was probably my 10-11th stay at the Tempus. I stayed there regularly over the years for business so when I took my family I thought the experience would be great as usual. WRONG. In its day I would have rated it an 4 or 5, but those days are over: Apparently the Tempus is under new ownership and although the staff is great the hotel has gone downhill. The focus has turned to renting out floors to businesses and rooms as apartments for city dwellers. The breakfast used to be amazing and on the main floor. It’s moved into the basement and the food quality is poor, a mere afterthought to what it was. The rooms although clean, are dated and seemed to have patch jobs all over. No soap was in our room and upon asking we were told the hotel was out of soap and we were told to use the shampoo in the shower. In the shower the shower head was broken so rather than repair it they put in a secondary hand held sprayer that sits at waist level (I’m 5’9, have fun tall folks). The complimentary safe had an out of order sticker on it as did the room our friends were staying in. The bar is now shut down as is the spa. In the end they have lost a long time customer and I should’ve stayed at the splendor or the evergreen which are still up to snuff and right down the road. Best I can say about the Tempus is that the location is great, but stay away.l, it’s trash claiming to be a 5 star hotel. "

"What a great hotel. Booked at last minute and was so impressed. Really interesting decor. Clean, quiet rooms. Nice healthy breakfast options. Very good gym. Would recommend. "

"Clean room. Cleaning lady is extremely helpful. "

"Breakfast is decent. Staff is nice, very helpful. But this property is a 2+ or 3 * hotel, could not be a 4* hotel."

"Nice room. Small, but functional. Breakfast is fine"

"Family room was spacious. Really enjoyed our stay."

"Great short stop over at this hotel. Great location, excellent vibes and very clean "

"Rooms are extremely small, you can barely even fit a suitcase in the room. You have to put the sheets for the bed on yourself (which are too small and a pain to do). They don’t provide towels so you must either prepare one yourself or rent one. There are bugs in the shower and no amenities, so make sure to bring your own things. There is a strange smell in the room too, not bad, but definitely a funk. Not a terrible place to stay for the price but I would suggest spending your money on a nicer accommodation."

"Fabulous! Definitely more affordable than other hotels and trily excellent rooms, location, staff."
