Shangri-La Suite
Key selling points: Immerse yourself in the allure of contemporary Asia, which beckons with details like lacquered Oriental accents, rich oak-wood paneling, and interpretive artwork by Wang Xu Yuan.
High-ceilinged interiors cocooned in Japanese lattice screens exude monasterial elegance and include two bedrooms, a living and dining room, and a pantry with private butler’s entrance. But the suite also indulges travelers with the luxuries they are due, most extravagant of which is a marble master bath with deep soaking tub.
Standout service: For a proposal, staff devised a treasure hunt in the guest room with clues that led to the ring.
