About the Hotel
One of the world’s richest repositories of ancient monuments. Beijing is home to six UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including the 260-year-old Summer Palace, the gates of which sit at Aman Summer Palace’s doorstep. In addition to the palace’s sculpted grounds and masterful architecture, nearby opportunities for discovery can be found at the Temple of Heaven, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and in the maze of artists’ workshops spread across the metropolis. Built in 1750, the 290-hectare Summer Palace is a picturesque retreat at any time of year. This garden estate is a masterpiece of architecture, landscape and design. Just a few steps from the East Gate of the vast Summer Palace grounds, Aman Summer Palace offers a selection of heritage-imbued dwellings, including those once used by guests awaiting an audience with the Empress.

Reviews for Aman Summer Palace
Convenient for Summer Palace access
Beautiful property in the daylight and at night. Very convenient back door access the summer palace, especially for jet lagged travelers needing to go somewhere at 630am. Other reviews mentioned the rooms being dated, our courtyard suite was in solid condition.

Beautiful afternoon tea room
Aman Summer Palace is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing afternoon tea! Highly recommend for the beautiful scenery and customer service. The tea room is nestled behind a traditional Beijing hotel, perfect for immersing yourself in the Chinese culture. Definitely make a reservation for the tea room, you won’t regret it!

Tranquil and wonderful stay
Had a tranquil stay in the beautiful room and exploring the grounds. The extensive made to order breakfast menu was delicious. The gym was the best hotel gym I have ever seen. Spacious with all manner of machines and equipment such as a prime grip for lat pulldowns and pilates reformer. The spa treatment was superb and relaxing. The direct entrance to the Summer Palace is convenient.

Oasis in Beijing
We thoroughly enjoyed our 4-day stay at The Aman. It’s a beautiful and peaceful setting in the heart of Beijing. They have kept the furniture and buildings in the old style with lots of gorgeous wood lattice work in the rooms. The staff is very warm and welcoming. Also, we reserved a few tours through the hotel which were top notch. Our tour guide David was amazing. He taught us a lot about China and its interesting history.

Immersion into the Summer palace's atmosphere
Terrific place, immersion into the atmosphere of Summer palace. The best staff: extremely helpful and nice (arranged a breakfast box for us, as we were leaving very early; easily arranged a dinner on terrace; anticipated any wish). The best location: gives you direct access to the Summer palace, and ensures a calm and relaxing atmosphere in the evening (feeling that you are not even in the city, but jus surrounded by nature). Amazing facilities: restaurants are all delicious and provide great choice of meals. Great rooms: at the same time modern and traditional. Strongly recommend to stay in this magic place!
