Finally got to wear a wizard robe during Universal Beijing Resort's Magical Back-to-School Season event!

Recently took advantage of Universal Beijing Resort's Magical Back-to-School Season event and finally fulfilled my wish of wearing a wizard robe for photos at Hogwarts! This time I chose an absolutely gem of a hotel that perfectly addressed three major needs: playing + photography + rest—the Universal Studios Grand Hotel Beijing🏰

✨Why choose it?
1. Unbeatable location: Situated right above the park entrance, just 5 minutes downstairs to the park with 1-hour early entry privilege! Rode the Forbidden Journey repeatedly in the morning with fewer people—pure bliss~
2. Maximum immersion: The whole hotel has a retro British academic style—moving portrait frames in corridors, scheduled magical light shows, even elevator announcements with owl sounds. Potterheads will scream with delight!
3. Photo paradise: Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the neon night view of CityWalk, the lobby's spiral staircase has built-in Harry Potter filters, and wizard robes blend perfectly in public areas

🏨Room review:
• Hogwarts castle light show visible from the room (remember to choose "CityWalk view" room type)
• HP collaboration toiletries, even wand-shaped room keys you can keep
• Spacious twin beds, easily fits 28-inch luggage when fully opened

🎢Nearby activities:
• CityWalk dining: Butterbeer ice cream at Chocolate Emporium is richer than in-park versions
• Night lights: Hotel terrace after 9pm is the best spot for neon sign photos
• Hidden perk: Stay includes early entry wristbands + commemorative room key

⚠️Notes:
• Weekend rates fluctuate during Back-to-School Season—book 30 days early for best prices
• No need for adapters (USB ports by bed), but bring power banks (few rental spots in park)
• Non-guests can't enter for photos—use this to shoot empty corridors at dawn

💡Budget alternatives:
👉NUO Resort Hotel: Official partner, 7-min walk to park with elegant Chinese-style rooms
👉Hilton Beijing Tongzhou: 15-min drive with shuttle service, great for families

Put on your wizard robe, grab your wand, and complete this magical escape from the Muggle world before school starts! 🧙♀️✨
