Beijing Hotel near metro

Hi

I%26#39;m looking for a good/preferably western brand hotel near a metro stop. Don%26#39;t need to be near the center of the city because this will be our 3rd time to beijing, so we%26#39;ve done all the major tourist stuff, and looking to explore the city more. Have been lookiing at the Novotel Beijing Sanyuan, which is a newer place on the outer part of town but right next to a metro stop. What about the renaissance Beijing, near the embassy, is that near a metro? Any other suggestion of hotels %26lt;$80/day that is near a metro, and not necessarily too close to the center of the city (I hate the traffic in beijing!).

Thanks

One of the Renaissance Hotels looks like it is less than half a mile from a subway stop, the other is further out.

There are a lot of hotels near subways. Here are a few:

The Holiday Inn Downtown

Trader%26#39;s

Swisshotel

Otani (Japanese Brand)

These have all been around awhile--I can%26#39;t really keep up with all of the new hotels springing up everywhere.

If you can book Novotel and renaissance at the same price.I suggest renaissance,not far from subway station by walking.

I recently stayed at the Crowne Plaza Sun Palace. It is new and just north of Ring Road 3 north-east. 10 minute walk to subway. Because of the location it is quite cheap and definitely a 5-star.
