Vue Hotel Houhai | Ministry of Design

Vue Hotel by the Orange Hotels Group is part of a growing global phenomenon of locally rooted boutique hospitality brands, which aim to immerse its guests in authentic and bespoke experiences. With locations in key cities across China, the Vue Hotel brand draws proudly from the culture and context of where its properties are located, but always does so with a contemporary and whimsical twist. Unapologetically modern in its approach, the brand embodies the desires of the urbane traveller; creating comfortable and inviting spaces that are paired with intriguing art and delectable cuisine. Ministry of Design, the internationally acclaimed studio from Singapore, is responsible for the holistic strategy, branding, interior design and art creation throughout the entire Vue Hotel Houhai Beijing project.

Vue Hotel’s flagship property is located in Beijing, in the Hutong district of Houhai. The hotel compound sits on the edge of the picturesque Houhai lake, and neighbours a verdant public park, as well as historic Hutong houses which are still used by local inhabitants today. Located along Houhai’s banks are also a district of bars and vibrant cafes.

Undertaken as a major adaptive-reuse exercise, the hotel comprises a series of artistically transformed quasi-historic buildings from the 1950’s. This intriguing hotel compound invites you to explore its many facets where you will discover a series of landscaped gardens, a bakery café fronting the bustle of the Hutong streets, a signature restaurant in a warehouse, a rooftop bar overlooking the lake, a gym and over 80 rooms and suites, several with private gardens or with views overlooking the park or lake.

VUE Houhai is proud to be the first Member of Design Hotels in Beijing.
