About Lotus Place hotel, the Lakeside Beijing

Lotus Place Hotel, the Lakeside Beijing is located by the north bank of Houhai, one of the most prestigious areas of Beijing, surrounded by Guang-Hua Buddhist Temple, Tower of Drum, Yin-Ding Bridge, the Former Residence of Madam Soong-Ching-Ling, and the Palace of Prince Gong. The area remains a complex labyrinth of alleyways and traditional Beijing Houses ? the courtyard. There are many different stylish bars and restaurants in walking distance to both local and foreign tourists.

The location of the hotel allows overnight guests and tourists a chance to truly experience some of the charms of the area, replete with old man and women going through their taijiquan routine, old men lavishing attention on their birds and the strains of the Jinghu ? a two-string spiked fiddle used in Peking Opera, two men playing chess with many others watching, kids playing on the ground. The vicinity of the hotel makes it an ideal place to observe and participate in the hobbies and habitual routines of many people, perhaps the last to vanish by the trends of change.

Hotel also sits closely to any sites such as: Tian An Men Square, Wangfujing Street, Forbidden City, Beihai Park, Jingshan Park, Temple of Lama, Temple of Earth, Nan Luoguxiang, Beijing Exhibition Center, Beijing Zoo, and easy access to Metro and Bus stations.
