Beijing: Bamboo Garden Hotel

Lonely Planet Review

Within roaming distance of the Drum and Bell Towers and Houhai Lake, the intimate, leafy courtyard aspect is impaired by the jarring modern block opposite and occasionally the staff are casual, but this place still gets good reviews. The buildings date to the late Qing dynasty; its gardens once belonged to a eunuch from Empress Cixi’s entourage. The small singles are cheap but ordinary, so upgrading to the more pleasant doubles and suites is recommended. Reception is through the gates on your left.
