Aman at Summer Palace Hotel, Beijing
More photosExpert reviews
“Hard to fault this exquisite hotel, a candidate for best in Beijing. It’s located around the corner from the Summer Palace – parts of the hotel date to the 19th century. The big rooms are superbly appointed, and contained in a series of picture-perfect pavilions set around courtyards.”
“If you’re looking for a tranquil setting, visit Aman Summer Palace in the sprawling city of Beijing. Aman features airy luxurious suites surrounding a scenic garden courtyard. Suites have both a bedroom and living area, with plenty of seating to unwind with a good novel or a cocktail.”
“The Aman knows imperial luxury. The resort is a period Qing Dynasty structure of crisscrossing courtyards, halls and suites, unfolding symmetrically like a miniature Forbidden City.”
“The epitome of blissful indulgence, this luxury hotel is spread out across a series of carefully renovated ancient Qing Dynasty courtyards—it even has its own private entrance to the Summer Palace.”

Lonely Planet + 2 more“The flagship hotel of a homegrown hospitality brand, NUO serves up a Chinese take on luxury living, which equates to teas from its own plantations in the palatial guest rooms, Chinese poetry inscribed on the marble bathroom walls and bling art pieces from Chinese superstar artist Zeng Fanzhi in the lobby. Far from the action, but close to 798 Art District.”
