The PH bears the risk that it has just been opened. Any reviews on those two or other recommendations?
Any input is greatly appreciated.
I had a friend who stay 3 nights in Aman Beijing.
He raved about the Naoki, saying that was the best meal he had among the amans he visited. He also enjoyed the theatre experience.The staff served snacks and drinks during the movie
He received an upgrade to the court yard room and thought the room was neither comfortable nor spacious. Bathrooms are not the usual standard of aman elsewhere. In his opinion, the service was not where it should be yet and the GM was on the case.
That is all I know. Hope it will help.
