Zhuyuan Hotel (Bamboo Garden Hotel) Review
This charming hotel was once the residence of Kang Sheng, a sinister character responsible for "public security" during the Cultural Revolution, Kang nevertheless had fine taste in art and antiques, some of which are on display. The Bamboo Garden cannot compete with the high-rise crowd when it comes to amenties, but its bamboo-filled gardens make it a treasure for those looking for a true Chinese experience. It's within walking distance of the colorful Houhai, or Rear Lakes, area. The neighborhood is perfect if you want to experience the lifestyles of ordinary Beijingers.
