Travel + Leisure "When lit up at night, it resembles a giant lantern, one of the traditional Chinese elements that are strongly represented in the design of this 89-room hotel." Full review
Rough Guide "A swish boutique hotel ten minutes’ walk from the Forbidden City, with clean lines, glass walls and a bamboo theme giving it a distinctive, modish look."

There are nearly 100 dishes to choose from, but I suggest the wagyu beef tenderloin, which practically melted in my mouth, and the pumpkin soup.
