A hidden gem in Beijing - Beijing Hotel.

♥A hidden gem in Beijing! ✔Accor once owned the four most famous historical hotels in China: Beijing Hotel Raffles, Fairmont Peace Hotel in Shanghai, Sofitel Legend People's Grand Hotel Xi'an, and Novotel Beijing Peace. From Accor's brand positioning, Beijing Hotel is the top hotel among these four historical hotels. In December 2016, Beijing Hotel was rebranded as NUO, a local luxury hotel brand jointly created by BTG and Kempinski. Although it is less famous than Raffles, it is more in line with the low-key luxury temperament of Beijing Hotel and symbolizes the rise of local hotel brands. ✔The four hotel buildings on the east side of Chang'an Street are the State Guesthouse, NUO Hotel Beijing (newly renovated in 2022 with a new Chinese style), the main building of NUO Hotel Beijing, and the new building of Beijing Hotel. The main building was built in the 1910s and opened in 1917. It is a historical building that has recorded many stories over the past 100 years. ✔The celebration banquet of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China in 1949 was held here. Historical celebrities such as Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou, and Mr. Sun Yat-sen have stayed here. The hotel has also specially reserved 9 celebrity suites, which retain the room decorations of the 9 celebrities who have stayed here, including President de Gaulle, Marshal Montgomery, General Zhang Xueliang, writer Shaw, and Mr. Guo Moruo. ✔Above the 9 celebrity suites, the hotel also has 5 154m² presidential suites and the largest 888m² presidential suite in Beijing. The presidential suite I stayed in this time has a strong historical atmosphere and exudes a low-key luxury!
