The Peninsula Beijing

Beijing, China

The Peninsula Beijing

As Beijing’s first major luxury hotel, The Peninsula Beijing boasts a façade that evokes both the grandeur of ancient China and the might of a modern global power. Inside the historic-style portico, the lobby is a lesson in sophistication, as grand white columns frame a monumental staircase, and prestigious luxury brand counters sit alongside grey armchairs in an invitation to the quintessential ritual of afternoon tea. The upper floors house nothing but suites; some evoke imperial palaces with their marble, lacquer, and dark wood, while others offer a more theatrical flair, featuring accents of jade, gold leaf, and red fabrics. Sweeping views of the capital can be enjoyed from every floor-to-ceiling window, and when guests are not savouring Peking duck at Huang Ting, they can stroll through the Art Gallery, where artists-in-residence showcase their latest works.
