Aman Summer Palace has situated about 15km from the center of Beijing, the capital of China. The resort perfectly complements Beijing's Summer Palace and Imperial Garden. Summer Palace Resort is also popular for its palace stay; the name is derived from Beijing's Summer Palace and Imperial Garden, which is designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Moreover, the resort is well known for having hosted the Hampungje concubine of the Qing dynasty in China. No one other than guests is permitted to enter, and the magnificent appearance of the building makes an impression.

Aman Summer Palace provides nine different types of rooms surrounding a courtyard garden. Throughout the room, there is a strong Chinese cultural influence, and the magnificent furniture and atmosphere give the impression that one is residing in the Chinese imperial family. The presence of furniture engraved with patterns on trees and chairs that the emperor would sit on further adds to the overwhelming effect. A comfortable bed and a spacious room are perfect for relaxing in addition to the drawing-room. Every room has a panoramic view of the garden in front of it, giving it the sensation of becoming a king in the Qing Dynasty.

The Aman Summer Palace guide and welcome tea are provided while you wait in the resort lobby. As a long-term resort during the Qing Dynasty, the site comprises 290 hectares of ponds, pavilions, temples, and towers that are perfect for relaxing. As you walk around Hutong Street in Beijing, you will encounter teahouses, restaurants, and workshops that will make lasting memories. Guests can enjoy all the dinners prepared on the grill at Summer Palace, as well as Nama, Aman's signature Japanese restaurant. The classic food of the Chinese emperor can also be enjoyed, so let's stay awhile and enjoy a variety of dishes.
