The St. Regis Chengdu

What the classifiers highlight

Rooms start at 700 square feet, among the largest in Chengdu's central business district, with floor-to-ceiling windows and heated bathroom floors. Forbes counts six restaurants and bars, including rooftop lounge Flair, where a cocktail list called Sip Chengdu draws on flavors from the Sichuan-Tibet highlands, and notes a heated indoor pool with colored lighting and private dining alongside it.
