<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong> <strong>Hotel</strong> <strong>Group</strong><br />

While some international groups create extremely<br />

slick but generic luxury, <strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong> seems<br />

to have gone the other way, adding locality, personal<br />

touches and intuitive grace.<br />

Lux Magazine, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Bangkok<br />

The <strong>Oriental</strong> <strong>Hotel</strong> in Bangkok still one of the best<br />

hotels to be found anywhere.<br />

The Wall Street Journal, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong> Dhara Dhevi, Chiang Mai<br />

You couldn’t have a softer landing than <strong>Mandarin</strong><br />

<strong>Oriental</strong> Chiang Mai, 60 acres filled with faux temples,<br />

pavilions, wats and traditional houses. The whole<br />

confection is a King and I-style fantasy of old Siam.<br />

The Sunday Times Travel, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Hong Kong accommodates<br />

<strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2011</strong> 17<br />

The Landmark <strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>,<br />

Hong Kong<br />

The service is sharp 24 hours a day, and ‘technology<br />

butlers’ know everything there is to know about<br />

electronic gadgetry.<br />

Condé Nast Traveller, UK, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Singapore<br />

In the hotel, there’s a pleasant buzz – especially in the<br />

revamped pool area, with its loungey white cabanas,<br />

breezy gardens and twinkly views of the jagged skyline<br />

come evening.<br />

The Sunday Times, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Tokyo<br />

The views from <strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Tokyo are<br />

amazing, the rooms are impeccable, and the<br />

service unmatched.<br />

Condé Nast Traveler, US, <strong>2011</strong><br />

<strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>, Barcelona<br />

Quality is the real luxury at <strong>Mandarin</strong> <strong>Oriental</strong>,<br />

Barcelona, starting with the blow-you-away entrance<br />

through a soaring atrium. Gourmet dining, a vibrant<br />

cocktail bar and a courtyard terrace shaded by mimosa<br />

trees are all reason enough not to leave the hotel<br />

for days, despite the treasures of Barcelona on<br />

your doorstep.<br />
