OVERVIEW
The Peninsula Hotel Beijing resort | The Peninsula Hotel Beijing Hotel | The Peninsula Hotel Beijing reviews
What to expect: A large traditional red-and-green Chinese pagoda gate leads into a forecourt, where a central fountain sits in front of the main hotel building. Inside, the lobby is dressed with subtle lights and marbled floors. Skylights bathe the lobby with natural light during the day. An older, well-heeled business and leisure crowd mingle, and small groups gather, in the lobby lounge over drinks and music in the evenings.
Amenity highlights: The Peninsula's shopping arcade showcases top brands, such as Chanel, Versace, and Gucci, on three floors. Its Cantonese restaurant features antiques dating from the Qing Dynasty, and is styled after courtyards of Beijing's traditional noble houses. The modern Jing restaurant features a walk-in glass wine cellar and open-concept kitchens. Beauty and body care is offered at the Clarins Beauty Institut, which is complemented by an indoor pool and large fitness center.
Insider tip: Along Wangfujing street, just a block away from the hotel, is Beijing Department Store. Beijing's first department store, it still retains its original architecture.
