About the Hotel
The Emperor features a cutting-edge interior conceived by internationally-renowned designers, Graft Labs. Its 46 rooms, eight suites and one Emperor Suite all boast a modern aesthetic accented with traditional symbolic touches, as well as wall-mounted flat-screen TVs, wireless Internet and butler service.
At the hotel’s Shi restaurant, guests can enjoy fusion cuisine creatively prepared by pre-eminent Chinese chef John Hao, who puts a modern spin on traditional local dishes. They can also choose from amongst a selection of vintage Chinese rice wines, stored beneath the restaurant and visible through patches of transparent glass flooring. Up on the roof, The Emperor’s other bar, Yin, offers breathtaking view over the city as well as a large selection of specially-created cocktails and crêpes, all prepared with a Chinese touch. In addition to hosting fashion events and art exhibitions, Yin is also home to the Emperor’s daily Raising of the Lanterns ceremony at sunset, marking the transformation of the roof terrace into a club and lounge under the stars.
Also located on the terrace is Yue or, Joy the hotel’s spa and wellness area, an all-glass enclosure offering amazing city views and featuring a reflecting pool, two massage rooms, a fitness centre, a chill-out area and, at the roof’s highest point, a Jacuzzi.
