We stayed at the DoubleTree and Hilton last week. Doubletree is only a month old while HIlton is about 4 months. Both are close to metro stations, altho DT is more in the center. Still, taking the metro to get around is very easy. The rooms in DT are much smaller and they don´t have an EL. Ningxia night market is a few minutes taxi ride from DT where we had one of the best dumplings and beef soup we´ve ever tasted. The staff in both hotels were very friendly. Since the price was almost the same, we paid abt 150Euro for Hilton and 5 euro more for DT, we thought the Hilton was much better as they have the Exec Lounge and the breakfast buffet had great selection unlike the DT where the food offering was still limited, maybe due to low occupancy and being new. One more thing we liked in DT is the corner suite upgrade we got with the bathtub having fantastic views
