Beijing Peace Hotel

Since I’ve already described the hotel that we will be staying at in Guangzhou, I should probably take a look at the two hotels that we’ll be at in Beijing and Nanchang. During our stay in Beijing we’ll be at the Novotel Peace Hotel. It is a four star hotel located near the Wangfujing commercial district. On our first trip to Beijing, we originally were going to stay at the Beijing Peace Hotel but the hotel was booked and with the size of our group we ended up staying at the Beijing Oriental Culture Hotel. It was a nice hotel but not quite as conveniently situated.

It is very near to Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City and not far from Beihai Park or the Temple of Heaven. We’ll be able to walk to the Wangfujing branch of Quanjude Restaurant so we will certainly get Peking Duck one evening.

The hotel has an indoor swimming pool so that will be great for the kids. They have a restaurant called the Square which provides an Asian and international buffet with multi-cuisine cook stations. This sounds similar to the restaurants at the hotels we stayed at previously. Last trip we typically ate two meals a day, breakfast at the hotel buffet and dinner at a restaurant somewhere. We would only need snacks during the day to tide us over for dinner.

Here’s a picture of Karen and me on Wangfujing Avenue during our last trip.
