The Peninsula Beijing is inarguably the premier hotel in Beijing for business and leisure travelers, as well as the venue of choice for important events and celebrations. The completion of the extensive renovations in mid 2006 and repositioning under the Peninsula brand marks The Peninsula Beijing entering a new chapter. Having opened in 1989, The Peninsula Beijing has an imposing, traditional Chinese architectural-style exterior, integrated with the ultimate in luxurious, modern hotel amenities and facilities. Ideally located in the centre of Beijing. The hotel offers 525 superbly appointed and spacious guest rooms and suites, based on The Peninsula's tradition of comfort, subtly blended with Chinese influences.
