Eventually wandered into a hotel lobby and asked. The guy said keep walking, you'll see it on the right somewhere. Kept walking on and on, and sure enough got there maybe 1.5 hours after leaving the airport. Sounds cheap, doesn't it? But much more enjoyable this way and memorable.
LOL, the exact same experience I had! Walked FOREVER from my hotel trying to find Tianamen.
