NUO properties in Beijing

I chose Nuo Hotel for my birthday this year, and I was pleasantly surprised when the front desk wished me a happy birthday during check-in. They upgraded me to an executive floor, which was beautifully decorated with a great ambiance, and the view from the window was also lovely. I drove here this time, and at checkout, I wasn't proactively informed about parking fee waivers or anything similar. So, I had to go down to the garage and then come back to the front desk to inquire.

We brought our child to Beijing, and since Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City were must-see attractions, we ultimately chose the NUO Hotel Beijing. I was a bit worried about older hotels having outdated facilities before checking in, but the actual experience was surprisingly amazing. The hotel, which opened in 1917, once enjoyed the reputation of being 'the first luxury hotel.' Many historical figures have stayed here, and it's steeped in a century of history. We stayed in the Grand Premium Chang'an Avenue View room, which had been recently renovated. At a spacious 60 square meters, it offered ample room and a fantastic view directly overlooking Chang'an Avenue. The front desk staff were very friendly; they helped us with our luggage to the room and explained how to use all the room's facilities one by one. The hotel lobby had a wonderful ambiance with its high vaulted ceilings and magnificent crystal chandeliers, creating a vintage vibe that was perfect for photos. The facilities were comprehensive, and both the gym and heated pool were fully operational. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options, and the hotpot (Shuan Yang Rou) at the hotel was also very good. The most significant plus was the prime location. Tiananmen Square and the Forbidden City were both within walking distance, which saved us the hassle of taking taxis and rushing when traveling with a child. Overall, our stay was extremely satisfying.
