42 rooms, all with their own doors and courtyards.
The main ancient buildings of BAUD Beijing University of Architecture and Design Institute, the textile factory of the neighborhood committee, etc., have been transformed into guest rooms, front desks and restaurants, with gray eaves and walls, and the appearance of the Hutong, simple and unpretentious.
The main space of CCD Office, the water courtyard corridor, the plank road and the ancient trees, are a ”dream of the garden”; the green inkstone floor, the ebony table and the lacquer screen, and the spacious space of more than 100 square meters, are ”deep courtyards” everywhere. The luxurious residence is elegant and graceful.
The so-called ”Quiet Luxury” is like this. Its representative Italian cashmere brand Lori Piana has an advertising slogan: ”If you know, you know”, which is exactly the same as Qianmen Wenhua, and the valley is quiet and secluded.
There are two deep impressions on this trip:
The first is the trees in the courtyard, 130-year-old Yuanbao maple, 100-year-old Chinese toon, and persimmon, jujube, clove, pomegranate, etc. Our courtyard has an old Chinese toon, a square patio, and a tree of every inch.
Secondly, the people in the store are well-deserved for their ”clear stream service”. For example, I talked to the housekeeper Melody about dust allergies, and she focused on dust removal every other day. Melody is generous and considerate in her treatment of others, which is very rare. Another example is the restaurant, where the plates are preheated before changing, which is very meticulous. A few days of time, moistening things silently.
Very, Wenhua.

As a local, I also stay in hotels in Beijing from time to time to spend holidays or celebrate a special day. This time my husband chose the Qianmen Mandarin Oriental for his birthday. Regardless of hardware or software, it should be ranked among the top hotels in Beijing. The design that is both integrated and separated from the Hutong market is unique and provides a great experience. Thanks to the housekeeper Karlie for the well-arranged room (and the free upgrade), to the front office manager Xia and all other reception staff, and to the security guards who stood firm in the cold wind. In the WeChat group specially created for our stay, my husband wrote a special paragraph to thank you:
Wandering the winding alleys,
Savor the fireworks in the world.
Looking for romance in the cold,
Enjoy the warmth of winter alone,
Right at the front door of Mandarin Oriental.
On my special day,
A special feast that interprets the stage of time.
Thanks to Karlie and the hotel staff for their meticulous service.
When spring comes and the flowers bloom, we'll see you there!
