Wonderfully understated yet bold in its design gumption, Chao Beijing was a daring yet reserved foray into what newness meant to a hotel that aims to be more than a hotel. It was like taking a step into nostalgia as I leapt into the future of hospitality.

A tad removed from the thick of action in the city, this Four Season property is also somewhat of a departure from the group's usual panache, effusing a staid charm over the usual razzle dazzle one commonly associates with the brand. To sum it up succinctly, the property serves the functionalities of a Four Seasons hotel without the forms.
