Stay at the Mandarin Oriental Qianmen, Beijing, and step into the 800-year-old Hutong secrets

The contemporary aristocratic "slow life" experience allows me to travel through old Beijing in a second 📍Mandarin Oriental Qianmen Beijing 【🚇Transportation】Metro Line 7, Zhushikou Station, Exit C, walk 800 meters 【💰Price】5 figures/night (but the experience value is maxed out!) [🌟Summary in one sentence] In the old alley where the courtyard and the modern glass curtain wall collide, you can sleep in a "living museum"! 🏮【You'll travel through time as soon as you enter the door! 】 Push open the mottled wooden door, and you will be greeted by—— ✅ The "Ice House Alley" historical district, which existed in 1718 (walking on the stone slabs will give you a sense of "cultural relic-level" happiness) ✅ The renovated century-old courtyard house actually hides 26 "floating guest rooms" ✅ The starry sky terrace hidden on the roof offers a double view of the Milky Way and CBD at night! Tips: When you stay at the hotel, you can make an appointment with a butler for free to take you on the "Hutong Citywalk", which will give you 100 times more insights than wandering around on your own! 🏨【How amazing is the room? 】 🍃 "Cloud Courtyard" Suite (a room you should definitely go for even if your per capita budget is maxed out!) ▫️Super large glass room + high-rise structure of ancient building = sunlight pours in directly ▫️Extra long solid wood workbench + panoramic floor-to-ceiling window = office-friendly ▫️There is a patio next to the bathtub. You can look up and see pigeons flying by while taking a bath. 🧶 "Hutong Memory" themed room (best value for money) ▫️Antique phonograph + hand-woven carpet + rosewood furniture = it feels like living in a scholarly family during the Republic of China period ▫️Every night at 7 o'clock, the butler will deliver a bowl of "Hutong Milk Tea" (with osmanthus flavor!) Secretly: The name of the WIFI in all rooms is "Hidden in the City" hahahaha 🍲【Beijing on the tip of the tongue】 🍵 "Tea Affairs" Chinese Tea Lounge ✅ Will take out the 1982 Pu'er tea for you to drink (remember to wipe off the cold sweat before drinking!) ✅ Hidden menu "Jasmine Pearl Special Drink", drinking it feels like chewing stars✨ 🍜 "Mandarin East" Chinese Restaurant ✅ Must order "Hutong Fried Tripe" - the tripe is so crispy that you can hear the Beijing dialect of the Beijing guys! ! ✅ For midnight snacks, you must grab the "Old Beijing Date Cake", freshly baked and eaten immediately. 🍷 "Drunk Oriental" Bar ✅ Exclusive special blend "Hutong Special Drink" - sour plum soup + gin, watching the pigeons circling when you are slightly drunk is super romantic~ 📸【Must-check-in photo spots】 1️⃣ The "ink landscape screen" in the center of the lobby (the background is blurred, like a costume drama) 2️⃣ Rooftop starry sky terrace (take panoramic photos of the hutong during the day and the night view of CBD at night, and you will be instantly praised in your circle of friends) 3️⃣ "Ancient Tree Cafe" by Houhai Beach (sitting under a century-old locust tree and drinking coffee, pretending to be in a European town 🍃) ✨【Who is suitable for living here? 】 ✅ I want to take a set of "Old Beijing + Light Luxury" blockbusters ✅ Seeking a high-end vacation to "steal a half-day of leisure" ✅ Want to experience "slow life under the imperial city" 🚩 Final soul-searching question: "Is it worth staying in a hotel in Beijing that costs over 2,000 yuan a night?" My answer is: When the pigeon whistle in the morning floats over my head, When the setting sun dyed the courtyard golden, When the butler whispered, "The jasmine tea you requested is ready"—— At that moment, I suddenly understood what it meant to be a great hermit in the city.
