BEIJING’S Shunyi District adds a new name to its hospitality offerings – Lv Garden Huanghuali Art Gallery. A member of Preferred Boutique, a collection of small and intimate luxury hotels, the 38-room property is positioned as a boutique hotel endowed with an enviable collection of Chinese art and classic huanghuali furniture. Huanghuali is a Chinese word which means “yellow flowering pear” wood.
Conceived as a destination for immersion in Chinese tradition, Lv Garden Huanghuali Art Gallery was inspired by a treasured collection of Chinese furniture and cultural artefacts. It is a combination gallery, boutique hotel, and event space, where guests have the opportunity to explore the beauty of iconic artistry and traditional craftsmanship, while experiencing them in liveable spaces. Presented in a courtyard style, and together with gardens that combine the landscaping styles of both northern and southern China, Lv Garden Huanghuali Gallery provides a view of ancient Chinese life that embraces Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.
Each of Lv Garden’s guestrooms is unique. Ranging from grand suites styled after the aesthetics of imperial China, to more intimate guestrooms for those who desire a discreet staying experience, accommodations at Lv Garden offer state-of-the-art amenities and bath accessories. Wireless internet is standard and complimentary throughout the property.
Meetings and events facilities include three formal boardrooms, a 45-seat performance theatre, and more than 10 mid to small-sized function rooms. Large-scale events and elaborate banquets may be hosted in the 400 sq m Grand Palace Hall or the 200 sq m Exhibition Hall.
Dining facilities include the property’s central restaurant, Shou Yun Xuan, offering classic Chinese and Western dishes with panoramic garden views. “Yan Cuisine” is specially inspired by green, healthy living, and features natural ingredients including fresh organic produce from the property’s own farm. A Japanese Teppanyaki private dining facility showcases interesting designs including glass floors where guests enjoy views of shimmering Koi ponds.
In addition to complimentary fitness facilities which include a modern techno gym and 25 m indoor pool, the spa at Lv Garden specialises in holistic Chinese treatments and therapies.
Lv Garden Huanghuali Art Gallery is located in the village of Beiwu and is approximately a 40-minute drive from downtown Beijing.
