Part of the Dorchester group, this unrepentantly ostentatious five-star attracts a who's who of movers and shakers and an international celebrity clientele. Why? Because despite its location – it's a cab ride away from major sites – this is an exquisite property where everything, from the beautiful chandeliers in the lobby to the writing desks in the suites, is a collectable.
