The four-star Holiday Inn Central Plaza (Beijing Zhonghuan Jiari Jiudian) is an efficiently run four-star hotel that, though somewhat remote from the center of the city, is always clean and of excellent value. Hotel staff get high marks for service. An added plus is the complimentary loaner mobile phone. For a certain kind of tourist, the Holiday Inn's Xuanwu District location is a bonus, as the surrounding streets retain something of the feeling of old Beijing to a degree lost in much of the rest of the city.
