Hyatt Place Hotel, Beijing

Designed by CL3 Architects Limited, the project is located in Yanqing District, northwest of Beijing. As the green lung of Beijing, it has beautiful scenery and mountains. Driving about 70 kilometers from downtown Beijing, you can feel JuYong Gate and Badaling Great Wall along the road. In 2019, the World Horticultural Exposition was successfully held here, attended by guests from all over the world. As the security center during the Expo, the project successfully completed the scheduling and command tasks during the Expo. It was also used for hospitality reception during the 2022 Winter Olympic Games. Hyatt Place served as official accommodation during the Winter Olympic Games and will operate as a cozy relaxing hotel for Yanqing in the future.

The nature of the building itself is relatively fixed with the existing conditions, and the conditions of core tube, structure, evacuation and fire fighting are relatively limited to the transformation. Fortunately, Hyatt Place’s positioning concept is open, fluid, flexible and sustainable, and, combined with the scenic environment, the overall design reflects a youthful, home, friendly, sustainable design that respects the environment.

Due to the hotel’s moderate scale and highly flexible and multifunctional spaces, the design is coherent throughout yet giving focus to various spaces. Light wood, as a natural material to integrate the hotel’s tone, giving a warm and welcoming feeling, well placed as a legacy of the International Horticultural Exhibition. The natural texture of the flooring harmonizes with the pale green graphics application to the walls to create a casual, family friendly atmosphere.
