Exterior: Roaming about in the brilliance of 1917s French Art Deco
architects, one feels like backing to the sweet old days. In
contrast, on the other hand, the oriental high-rise structure built
separately in 1954 and 1974 presents typical Chinese
architecture.
Lobby: The lobby is extremely large in size. It is decorated in
Chinese traditional style with luxurious elegance. There are many

you in a marvelous imperial palace. The large seating area is
facing the long check-in counter, with numerous sofa sets and
coffee tables.
