I've stayed at both the Marco Polo (a few months ago), and the Downtown Holiday Inn (a few years ago--so things may have changed since). The rooms are bigger at the Marco Polo, but it's not as well-run as the Holiday Inn and there are no tour desks on site (useful for booking trips to the Great Wall etc.). Both are convenient and comfortable.
