Summer Palace Hotel

"A step back in time, where every corner tells a story... moments of elegance, tradition, and a little bit of cinematic magic".

First of all, Jason at the front desk is very helpful and thoughtful. Not to mention the rest of the hotel staff were also friendly and helpful yet leaving you great space of privacy. We were very well taken care of. We stayed in the courtyard suite which is lovely. It feels magical to stay at such a historical place. Breakfast is not in buffet style but the selections offered are good enough especially the Chinese style breakfast. We also enjoyed the champagne and cold cuts platter. Thrilled to find out the spa service operate until 11pm, which we can go to sleep straight after the massage after dinner. On the other hand, the private access entrance to the summer palace is a plus point. As we don’t need to go through the usual public entrance that is full of people. The complimentary traditional costume photoshoot was surprisingly good. The quality of the costumes and make up are easily comparable ( or better than) to the paid one offer outside. Overall, we had a really good time throughout the stay where we were able to experience the tranquility and elegance of the Summer Palace. The team at Summer Palace Hotel done a good job!
