Bai Ta Yuan Guest House
Beijing, China

Baitayuan Guest House is in a traditional Beijing Hutong, located in a vibrant local community and.combining the traditional Beijing natives residence, the Quadrangle Courtyard, with many modern amenities. Rooms are set around a peaceful garden courtyard. All have air-conditioning and heating. There is ample hot water. We keep a high standard of cleanliness and hope our guests will help us maintain it as bathing facilities are shared.

Local style food and refreshments are available in the guest house and we regularly have barbecues in the courtyard. The local fruit and vegetable market is minutes away as are many restaurants. and shops.

Here you can experience Beijing lifestyle first-hand; you can live and eat just as locals do; living at Baitayuan one can feel more keenly the disappearing life style of Old Beijing due to urban expansion and development. Baitayuan is in the heart of a protected area where buildings are now listed to preserve this traditional style family house.

You can visit The Water Cube and The Birds Nest from here; it will only take you about 20 minutes by taxi. On the way you can stop at The Bell and Drum Tower, and have Chinese traditional snacks - very cheap and delicious!
