Red Capital is the first courtyard home restaurant in Beijing, which acts as a private boutique hotel. The hotel stands in a Hutong area and its unique heritage properties stress Chinese traditions which may give the guests the impression that they have come to Old Beijing.
Red Capital Ranch by the Great Wall, Beijing’s first eco-tourism resort, was awarded "One of the World's 50 Most Romantic Hotels” by Travel and Leisure, “Five Best Design Hotels in China” by The Independent Asia, and the “Nominee of Best Green Hotel 2009” - Business Destinations' Second Annual Travel Awards.
After 1949, the Chinese courtyard became a realm of privilege, exclusive to Beijing’s powerful elite. Many of China’s leaders selected courtyard homes as their private residence. Red Capital Residence seeks to preserve the elegance and exclusivity of traditional courtyard living.
Red Capital Residence, located in a courtyard home in Beijing’s Dongsi preserved heritage district, was witness to a history of intrigue during the Qing Dynasty and Republican era. One year of dedicated restoration by Beijing’s finest traditional craftsmen was required to preserve antiquity and revive the spirit of this historic home.
The Red Capital Residence consists of five luxuriously rooms, each appointed with original period antiques and a different historic theme. There are three double rooms: the Chairman's Suite (which brings one back to a time when Mao made key decisions from his bedroom), two Concubine's Private Courtyards (for anyone who has ever dreamed of being or having a concubine), and two Author's Suites (one inspired by Edgar Snow and the other by Han Suyin). All rooms have modern private bath facilities, wireless and cable Internet connection, and electronic safe.
Red Capital, with its unique heritage properties and good services, will present guests from across the world a nice environment for living and help them learn more of Chinese culture.
