Beijing - Shenyang Train vs. Flight

As an alternative, you can choose a flight which takes only around 1.5 hours. But it's not recommended in most cases. Because it costs more; and the airports are a little far from the downtown area, leading to the total flight travel time almost the same as the high speed rail travel time. Besides, the flight can be easily affected by the weather and it is not as punctual as rail service.

Yes, it's possible and you can arrive in Shenyang on the same day. No direct train from Hohhot to Shenyang and you have to transfer in Beijing. The total duration is about 7h.

Thank you for your inquiry.

The working time of a station depends on the train schedule. See from the recent schedule of Beijing Railway Station, the station may not work from between 11pm and 2am the next day. It is better if you go to station during other time period. Hope this information can help you.

The North Station is about 5km in distance to the hotel, 20min by taxi. You can also use metro line 2 to Youth Street and then change to line 1 to the main station, exit A. Then walk to the hotel. So, it also means the main station is much closer to your hotel, in walking distance. If there is other trains with suitable time to main station, it would be a better option for you.
