East Hotels in Beijing

《A Cozy Corner in Beijing East》: My Stay at EAST Beijing I drove to EAST Beijing this time. The hotel shares an underground parking lot with INDIGO Beijing Shopping Center, and levels B2 and B3 have plenty of spaces, so no need to worry about finding a spot. I’d recommend parking in zone H, as it's closer to the hotel entrance. The entrance itself is specially decorated in bright yellow, making it both striking and inviting. The lobby at EAST Beijing is incredibly stylish, with many creative sculptures that made me feel like I’d stumbled into an art gallery disguised as a hotel lobby, hahaha. During check-in, Alan at the front desk enthusiastically upgraded my room and meticulously explained the locations of the gym, restaurant, and other facilities. I felt truly valued and welcomed. The guestroom doors at EAST Beijing have a hidden design, blending seamlessly with the walls. This not only gave a smoother visual impression but, combined with the warm, non-direct lighting, also enhanced the sense of continuity in the hotel corridors. I stayed in a king-size room, which was generally spacious with excellent amenities. Since this is the Year of the Horse, the corridor walls were specially adorned with a floating watercolor painting titled 'Dream Horse,' instantly adding a rich artistic ambiance to the room. Furthermore, because I had contacted the hotel’s housekeeping department beforehand to request a quiet room, they specifically selected a room for me that was far from the elevators and not adjacent to staff passages or linen rooms. They also prepared welcome fruits and a handwritten card, which made me feel right at home and was incredibly thoughtful. There was even complimentary lip balm on the nightstand, which was a lifesaver for someone like me whose lips often get chapped! One delightful surprise was the recessed groove around the bathroom floor, which effectively guided water drainage during showers, preventing overflow and slippery floors. When checking out the next day at noon, another front desk staff member, Amber, not only clearly explained the parking discount policy but also thoughtfully reminded me to use the two lower-level elevators to reach the underground parking lot smoothly. Her service was exceptionally detailed. Overall, EAST Beijing is a high-quality, upscale hotel with well-trained staff, warm service, distinctive decor, excellent facilities, and refined design. It allows guests to enjoy a cozy and pleasant time even during business travel. I will definitely be back!
