Frommer's "Said to be the former residence of the infamous Qing dynasty eunuch, Li Lianying, Bamboo Garden was the first major courtyard-style hotel in Beijing and is among the most beautiful." Full review
Insight Guides "Simple, clean rooms open onto a classical Chinese garden, with a great location close to the Drum Tower. What it lacks in facilities is more than made up for in atmosphere."
Lonely Planet "The intimate, leafy courtyard at Bamboo Garden is appealing, even if the rooms, as in many of Běijīng’s courtyard hotels, can’t quite match the elegant, hushed atmosphere." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The charming hotel is located in a small hutong near the Jiugulou subway stop." Full review
Rough Guide "This hotel was converted from the residence of a Qing official and today the courtyards and bamboo-filled gardens are by far its best features."
Time Out "Eunuchs may have had to go through some occupational discomfort, but there were compensations: they got to live in beautiful courtyards like this one." Full review
National Geographic "Charming and affordable choice within walking distance of the lakes region and Drum and Bell Towers." Full review
