Luxury Hotels in China
China is a vast country made up of many differing states. As the regions vary, so do the hotels in China. In Beijing, the Ming-style Summer Palace is creaking with heritage yet bang up-to-date using Aman’s superior trademark; or for something daring, arty and ultra sexy, opt for The Opposite House. In Shanghai, the Peninsula is a truly class act, perfectly located with exquisitely appointed rooms and iconic views of Pudong and river. For a romantic experience of village life in China you can't beat the Amanfayun, a hotel with great charm and character in one of China's most beautiful cities, Hangzhou – once dubbed 'The City of Heaven' by Marco Polo. Nature lovers will fall in love with Yunnan province in southern China; take in the crisp air surrounding the Banyan Tree's luxurious villas in Lijiang, set on a remote plateau 2,000m above sea level.
