About:Beijing Capital Airport Express Train

Aloha!
My husband and I will be arriving at PEK at Terminal 3 at 3:40 pm on 3/24/10 and staying at Park Plaza near Forbidden City. Is it better to catch a taxi or would it be easy enough to catch the Capital Airport Express Train to the hotel? If we catch the Express Train, what stop do we get off at and do we need to transfer to the Metro? When going from Park Plaza to Terminal 3 the late evening of 3/27 would it be just as easy to catch Express Train again? I understand the taxi cannot drop the passengers off right in front of the Departure area....is the Express Train far from Terminal 3 or does it go through Terminal 3?
I would appreciate any help you can provide.

To the hotel: when you arrive Terminal 3, it is very easy for you walk to the Epxress Train station following the directions. Then, please take it and get off at its terminal at Dongzhimen station. Finally, you could hire a cab to the hotel which is located about 7kms away. It will be a little complicated to transfer metro. Well, when you arrive at Dongzhimen, please transfer to the subway Line 2 to Yonghegong station, then you should take the subway Line 5 here and get off at Dengshikou station. The hotel is located at Exit C.
Tips: the transfer between Express train and metro is easy with the help of elevators.

You could take the metro and then Express train to T3 from the hotel as well. The Express train's terminal is just in the departure hall of T3. If you take a taxi, it could drop you off just in front of the departure hall. Also convenient.
