Dining |
East 33 - East 33 caters for all taste buds, from traditional Chinese dishes featuring dim-sum and spicy Sichuan dishes to authentic Italian pizzas and pasta, this Asian meets Western mix creates a unique international buffet restaurant.
Jaan - Jaan brings you back to the glamorous 1920s when the Grand Hotel de Pekin was known as the Number One Hotel in the Far East. The original 1920 dance floor and sparkling crystal chandeliers showcase the days when NUO Hotel Beijing first served as the meeting place between Chinese and foreign dignitaries. French cuisine is what we praised here and is complemented by a wide selection of prestigious French and New World wines.
Writers Bar - The Writers Bar, the long-established rendezvous point for both social and business gatherings. The cuisine may be described as sophisticated comfort food; but it's home to all the favourites such as sandwiches, pasta, salads as well as steak tartare, a jumbo hot dog and classic New York cheesecake - which are considered by locals as the best in town.
NUO Hotel Beijing optimises French regal glamour with a hint of Oriental, and this can be seen throughout with its careful mixture of French architecture. There is a collection of Grand Suites and Landmark Rooms which are designed and finished with impeccable standards; marble bathrooms, traditional ornate rugs and all-encompassing beds.
