Fodor's Review:

One of the capital's oldest hotels, this property was born in 1900 as the Hotel de Pekin. Within sight of Tiananmen Square, it has housed countless foreign delegations, missions, and friends of China, such as Field Marshal Montgomery from Britain and the American writer Edgar Snow. China's longtime premier Zhou Enlai stayed and worked in room #1735. The rooms retain an old-fashioned splendor with French-classic touches. The west wing—now the Grand Hotel—was added in 1955 and the east wing debuted in 1974. This is the place for people in search of some history or proximity to nearby tourist sites, such as Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City.
