Hello Linda and Ting. Hope this is not too late for both of you.
For late arrival like 2am, there is no choice but to take a taxi and it takes around CNY100. It is safe enough! If right arriving past the midnight, perhaps the night line of shuttle bus line 2 is still available. It operates till the arrival of the last domestic flight (I remember it is around 01:00am). By that, get off at International Hotel and take a taxi to the hotel with the fare of CNY15 within 8min. To stay overnight at PEK, the hourly lounges are available or the public areas allow passengers to stay.
And the hotel is within 15min walking distance to Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square, and 10min to walk to Wangfujing Pedestrian Street. The closest metro station is Dengshikou Station of line 5, 8-10min walking distance away. Bus nos. 2, 60 and 82 are all nearby. You can make full use of the public transportation to the local attractions like Summer Palace, Temple of Heaven, etc.
