HONG KONG Following the success of its highly anticipated Maison Dunand collaboration in May, Grand Hyatt Hong Kong is continuing its Best of Hyatt Tables: Guest Chef Series with another cross-regional culinary exchange — this time bringing the refined flavours of Suzhou to Victoria Harbour. From June 11 to June 13, Executive Sous Chef Calvin Yu of Xizhou Hall — the Black Pearl One-Diamond restaurant at Park Hyatt Suzhou — will join forces with Executive Chinese Chef Chan Hon

INTERVIEW In an era where luxury hotels compete to be louder, bigger, and more theatrical than ever, The PuLi Group has built its reputation doing the opposite. The group’s hotels — from the hushed elegance of The PuLi Hotel and Spa to the deeply local sensibilities of The RuMa Hotel and Residences and The PuXuan Hotel and Spa — are defined by an atmosphere of muted lighting, measured service, and a sense of calm that arrives almost before check-in does. We speak with The Pul

CSP Times checks into The Murray, Hong Kong, a Niccolo Hotel, one of the city’s five-star hotels. It is recognised with One Michelin Key at the inaugural Michelin Guide Hotel Selection in 2025, and is the only Leading Hotels of the World member hotel in Hong Kong.

PHU QUOC Edging the shore of Khem Beach, one of Phu Quoc's most beautiful coastlines, JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay Resort & Spa isn't your typical beach resort. It's the world's only concept-driven JW Marriott, built around the fictional Lamarck University, where every building, room, and experience belongs to a 19th-century legend. Here, the experience opens into something more personal: private villas made for real connection, island adventures in southern Phu Quoc's m

CSP Times checks into MGM Cotai, one of Macau’s most popular hotels. Situated in the heart of Cotai, it offers a plethora of experiences from luxurious rooms to shopping outlets and dining options.

TEGERNSEE There is a specific kind of silence that exists only within the walls of a Lanserhof property - a hush so profound it seems to vibrate. Whether it is the salt-misted dunes of Sylt or the original, intimate mountain refuge in Lans , the sensation is the same: you aren't merely checking into a clinic; you are surrendering to a high-tech monastery for the modern soul. However, it is at Lanserhof Tegernsee , nestled in the Bavarian Alps, where this philosophy finds its

HONG KONG There’s a particular kind of magic to vinyl — unhurried, a little imperfect, and far more personal than anything a playlist algorithm can conjure. This April, The Peninsula Hong Kong leans into that mood with the launch of its Analogue Record Series at Felix at The Peninsula Hong Kong — a weekly Thursday night affair that feels equal parts listening party and low-lit social ritual. Taking place every Thursday from 8:00 pm to 11:00 pm, the Philippe Starck-designed sp

Nipponia Hotel Takehara Saltworks Town, in Hiroshima Prefecture, is a treasure trove of culture and history.

HONG KONG Yes, the name might remind you of a certain seminal 20th century artist, and no – they didn’t steal it. Think of this as the ultimate homage: the elemental, architectural aesthetic of Piet Mondrian – the pioneering Dutch abstract painter behind those big, bold, primary-colour cuboid patterns – so inspired the designers of the first Mondrian hotel, they put his name outside. Sitting pretty on LA’s Sunset Strip since 1985, that notorious celebrity hangout was later im

AMSTERDAM Canal House, a Member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World , is composed of three adjoining 17th-century merchant houses that stretch along the Keizersgracht, in the very heart of the Jordaan, Amsterdam’s cultural and artistic centre. Here, narrow timbered staircases, triple-width gardens, and intricate gables speak of a city built on ingenuity and international trade. We checked into this eccentric, design-lovers' dream for a two-night boutique hotel stay in the he

MACAU In a destination defined by spectacle, subtlety can feel almost radical. Cotai’s skyline is a carnival of excess — replicas of Parisian boulevards, Venetian canals and London landmarks rising above casino floors humming around the clock. Yet tucked inside The Londoner Macao , The St. Regis Macao offers something rather different: a hotel that doesn’t try to compete with the theatrics outside its doors, but instead perfects the quieter art of hospitality. That differenc

HONG KONG In a city where wellness often leans heavily on high-tech diagnostics and trendy treatments, Upper House Hong Kong is taking a refreshingly holistic turn. The hotel has partnered with Chain’s Medicare Centre to introduce its first Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) residency, blending centuries-old healing wisdom with modern wellbeing practices. This one-of-a-kind residency offers personalised treatments for everything from facial rejuvenation and hormonal balan

AMSTERDAM From its golden-age merchant houses to cobbled streets lined with cafés, Amsterdam combines history, artistry, and a wry sense of humour that seems stitched into the very bricks of the city. Over 72 hours, it is possible to taste, see, and drink your way through this storied metropolis while still leaving room for serendipitous discoveries. Here’s a curated guide for three days that balances museums, markets, cocktail bars, and hidden gems, with stays at Hotel De L’

AMSTERDAM Amsterdam is a city that moves with a rhythm all its own, a rhythm dictated by water, light, and centuries of trade, culture, and audacious civic ambition. The Amstel winds through the city like a silver thread, its banks dotted with buildings whose gables lean conspiratorially over the canals as though they have secrets to tell. To stay at Hotel De L’Europe Amsterdam, a member of The Leading Hotels of The World, is not merely to lodge in a luxury hotel — it is to

BANGKOK Bangkok is one of those cities that I keep coming back to – electric, chaotic, addictive – but it’s also a place where the hotel you choose really shapes the experience. This stay at 137 Pillars was actually a return visit for me, which says a lot in itself. The previous generation of luxury hotels in Bangkok set a high global standard, and these classic establishments remain exceptional. However, hospitality has evolved significantly – the boutique hotel boom has bro

The Qing Suites, the new hotel at the heart of Penang, Malaysia, is a quiet sanctuary that blends modern elegance with traditional motifs. Find out more in our review.

Here's where to go and what to eat at the Regent this Valentine's Day. Lai Ching Heen For couples drawn to refinement and tradition,
