Blg-Beijing Longtou Apartment

The Resort & Setting

Beijing Longtou Apartment sits at 8 Nan Xin Yuan Xi Lu in Chaoyang District, one of Beijing's central districts and home to much of the city's business and diplomatic activity. It's an independent timeshare operation offering apartment-style units, which suits owners who want a kitchen and living space rather than a standard hotel room — useful for longer stays, family visits, or simply having somewhere to cook after a long day of sightseeing. As with any independent property, it's worth going in with realistic expectations: the current Google rating sits at 2/5 from a single review, so prospective buyers and renters should factor that in and, where possible, ask the seller directly about the condition of the unit and the building.

The Area & Things to Do

Chaoyang District puts you within reasonable reach of Beijing's major historical sites. The Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square are both around 5km away, making them easy to visit in half a day using Beijing's subway or bus network. The Temple of Heaven, another Ming Dynasty landmark, is roughly 8km out, and the Summer Palace with its lakeside gardens is about 15km from the apartment. For travellers keen to see the Great Wall, several accessible sections lie around 50km north of the city — doable as a day trip with some advance planning. Beyond the main sights, Chaoyang itself has a mix of local neighbourhoods, markets and dining options, giving owners and renters plenty to explore without needing to venture far.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

If you own a week at Beijing Longtou Apartment and are considering selling or renting it out, BidMyTimeshare.com works as an owner-to-owner marketplace: you list your week, set your own asking price, and interested buyers or renters contact you directly through the platform. There's no commission on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get their week in front of buyers.

Before agreeing a price with a buyer, it's important to ask the resort's management for the current transfer fee and the latest annual maintenance fee, since these vary by property and aren't published figures we can quote here. A buyer will want this information too, along with clarity on exactly what transfers with the week — for example, whether it includes any banked points or prior exchange credits, or is simply the usage right for the unit and week in question. Getting these details in writing from the resort before closing protects both sides of the transaction.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Anyone renting out or buying a week here should note that Mandarin Chinese is the main language used locally, so renters unfamiliar with China may want to download a translation app before arrival. Beijing's subway and bus network is both efficient and inexpensive, and it's the easiest way for renters to reach the Forbidden City, Tiananmen Square and other central sites without arranging private transport. Owners renting out their week should also let guests know that popular attractions, particularly the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, often require advance ticket booking, especially around Chinese public holidays.
