This beautiful, chic, oriental-inspired lounge, located on the 15th floor of the Peninsula hotel, offers classic and craft cocktails with sweeping views of Wangfujing. Guests can also enjoy an up-close view of the original building’s traditional pagoda roof design, which was constructed in 1987.

My friend and I visited the lounge on a weekday, so there were very few people. I love the quiet ambiance and upbeat lounge music.

I love the spacious layout and the simple yet sophisticated décor with color schemes that match the pagoda roof.

Virgin Mojito

Passion Cloud

Frozen Strawberry Margarita

Tortilla Chips

We ordered the following drinks and food: Frozen Strawberry Margarita, Virgin Mojito, Passion Cloud (Fresh Passion Fruit, Jasmine Tea, Jasmine Syrup), and Tortilla Chips (Avocado, Coriander, Lime, Chili).

My favorite mocktail is the Virgin Mojito (I don’t drink alcohol). Peninsula’s Virgin Mojito is one of the best in Beijing. The sweetness and lime are well-balanced with just the right amount of ice.

My friend enjoyed her frozen Margarita. It was like a sweet berry slushy. The Passion Cloud was sweet and refreshing with a lovely jasmine aftertaste. The tortilla chips with the avocado dip were a good accompaniment to the drinks.

This is an ideal place for sundowner drinks and socializing.
