Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts
Asian grand-hotel hospitality, with landmark towers and resorts that still know how to host.
Shangri-La was founded in Singapore and grew from the 1971 opening of its first hotel into one of Asia’s defining luxury operators. The best hotels pair a large-scale grand-hotel operation with unusually practiced local service, destination restaurants, and club floors that materially improve a city stay. This guide focuses on the flagships and standout resorts rather than treating every hotel in the broad portfolio as equivalent.
