Brickyard Retreat at Mutianyu

Our trip was mainly to share bbq and we had all we needed provided by the hotel. Nice cleaning service and well-equipped villa.

My stay at Brickyard Retreat, was most relaxing and very enjoyable. Service is outstanding as is the food. My dog was accommodated and treated well. Sauna and massage well recommended. Will definitely go back.

One of the best hotels I’ve stayed in Beijing. The hotel staff are so warm and welcoming. They make sure you’re well taken care of. They even provided us with a pick and drop service to the Great Wall. It was a wonderful stay. The views from the hotel room is immaculate, so close to nature. The food at the restaurant is absolutely delicious. We enjoyed every second of our stay. Will definitely come back here!

This is a very special place! We enjoyed the hot tub, delicious food, and finding lots of tranquil spots to sit and read. They also serve really good G&Ts!!

Such a peaceful getaway. Our villa was lovely and very well appointed with amazing views of the mountains. Staff are so nice and helpful. Feel like the description and pictures online don’t fully convey just how great this hotel is. Also, this is one of my favourite sections of the Great Wall and so convenient to be able to get to the hotel (and Wall) easily by taxi for around 170¥ from central Beijing. Highly recommend.

Great location just few minutes drive from the shuttle bus that leads to the Great Wall, nestled in the middle of the mountains. Amazing place beautifully maintained with good taste. Great service with easy communication through Wechat if we are away of the hotel. Western restaurant serves very good food. We loved it and will come back.

We (3 people) stayed for one night at the Stone Forest cottage. Getting to the retreat and back to Beijing was easy, we did it all with DIdi. Once at the retreat the shuttle bus to the Great Wall, or to and from the cottage (with luggage) is super easy to arrange with the hotel. From Stone Forest to the Brickyard hotel is a short 5 minute walk and in the centre of the village there is a convenience store, a couple of restaurants, coffee shop and an art gallery. The hotel has a number of facilities and is well maintained and stylishly decorated. There are plenty of Insta spots fo those looking. As for Stone Forest, this is a great little cottage to escape the hustle and bustle of Beijing. It has all the amenities and a nice garden to sit in with a BBQ. Mosquito coils and spray is provided, thankfully during our stay, there were not too many around. Finally, I would like to mention the staff at Brickyard retreat. All were super helpful and friendly and went out of their way to make our stay special. We can definitely recommend a stay and wished we would have booked more nights.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Brickyard. We stayed in a house (Stone Forest) a few minutes walk from the hotel. The house is beautiful with ample space inside and outside. It is a quiet location with not much going on outside of the hotel. The hotel offers a shuttle to the Mutianyu Wall and this is a 'must'! The chairlift up and toboggan down is such a great experience for families! Only small downside of our accomodation was that the outdoor shower off the main bedroom in the house was not working, this would have been a fun addition!

I stayed twice at this fabulous retreat close to Mutianyu Great Wall. It is a special place, with great views and beautiful rustic style rooms. Staff is always ready to help. Highly recommended, good for families, friends and solo trips alike.
