Hutong Moli Hotel Beijing Wangfujing(former Beijing Double Happiness Courtyard Hotel) occupies the original site of Yuewei Zhuang, one of Mr. Ji Xiaolan’s residences during his later years in Beijing and the very place where he penned his renowned work, *Notes from the Yuewei Cottage* (Yuewei Caotang Biji). Situated in close proximity to the Forbidden City, the Wangfujing commercial district, and Chang'an Avenue, the hotel offers easy walking access to cultural landmarks such as Nanluoguxiang. With a major subway hub just steps away, it allows guests to fully embrace both the bustling vibrancy and the serene tranquility of this ancient capital.
Adhering to the authentic architectural canons of the Beijing-style *Siheyuan* (courtyard house), the complex features a symmetrical layout centered on a central axis. It preserves the traditional structural framework of Old Beijing courtyards—characterized by grey tiles, blue bricks, and intricately carved and painted beams—while seamlessly integrating cultural exhibition elements. This approach sustains the cultural memory of the traditional courtyard lifestyle, allowing guests to immerse themselves in the unique courtyard ethos and cultural spirit of Old Beijing.
Meticulously transformed from two century-old courtyard houses, the hotel features 59 elegant guest rooms ranging in size from 35 to 200 square meters. It stands as a rare gem within Beijing—a courtyard-style retreat offering private hot springs within the city center. The hotel offers a diverse range of room types to suit various travel needs, complemented by a dedicated 24-hour butler service. From welcome amenities and personalized itinerary planning to private dining experiences, guests enjoy exclusive, one-on-one service throughout their stay.
Crafted with meticulous precision and significant investment, the hotel pays scrupulous attention to every detail, with a particular focus on three signature public areas:
· The *Cultural Gallery*: Showcasing artifacts reflecting the lifestyle of Qing Dynasty literati alongside historical archives of Beijing’s Dongcheng District, this space allows both domestic and international guests to immerse themselves in the rich cultural heritage of the ancient capital.
· The *Rooftop View Café*: Offering panoramic vistas of the courtyard complex, guests can admire the picturesque interplay of blue bricks and grey tiles stretching out below.
· The *TCM Massage & Spa*: Drawing upon traditional wellness philosophies, this sanctuary employs renowned practitioners—designated inheritors of Beijing’s intangible cultural heritage in massage therapy—to help travelers soothe their bodies and minds, relieving the fatigue of their journeys.
Furthermore, the hotel is equipped with a comprehensive array of facilities designed to meet every guest's diverse needs, including a fitness center, multi-functional meeting rooms, an elegant tea house, a boutique gift shop, a restaurant, an executive lounge, a bar, private business suites, and laundry services. As a secluded sanctuary of luxury nestled at the foot of the Imperial City, this destination seamlessly blends the millennia-old heritage of Beijing-style *siheyuan* courtyards with traditional Beijing culture, establishing itself as a truly distinctive paradigm of refined hospitality.
