“Hotel Kapok has a foot in two worlds: its proximity to the Forbidden City's east gate and Wangfujing shopping is appealing, yet Beijing traffic can complicate getting around the rest of the city. I appreciate the complimentary minibar, a small luxury that balances the location's mixed convenience. For visitors who prioritize immersion in the immediate area, it presents a compelling, if nuanced, base.”
