Description
In the old days, the Forbidden City and its massive red walls was called the "Innermost City". The ancient residents of the inner city could have never expected that today, a 5-star hotel, the Grand Hotel, Beijing, would be erected on the grounds of the former Imperial City. You will fall in love after reaching the upper-deck lobby where the atrium a la Portman receives you in marbled splendour with an artsy zodiac fountain, portraying the Water Scenery of the Royal Garden. Memories of the Old World at night abound, when the pianist fills the air with Chopin and Strauss.
