IIRC, this hotel was featured in a some Travel Channel special on the Chengdu/Sechuan area of China. I think it was the Samantha Brown series and it first aired shortly before the Olympics, so it would have been made in 2008. I've never tried, but there's supposed to be a way to get further info on the featured properties and activities on the Travel Channel website. If you search there, you might find pictures, including of their good views. I vaguely remember that the hotel looked good on TV, better than a typical Sheraton, and I think they had some kind of a special tea bar or tea service in the lobby. (I remember this because I was supposed to visit Chengdu shortly after the earthquake and never made it.)
