"The 68 cozy rooms are traditionally furnished, with red-tasseled lamps and dark wood furniture, but they don't feel like museum galleries."

"Converted from a Qing dynasty mansion, this hotel, though it’s aimed at tour groups, has a little more charisma than most such places."

Avoid the expensive breakfast.

"A more comfy, lived-in atmosphere, although unfortunately over-zealous modernisation has stripped the hotel of some of its charm."
