Gallivanters Guide just posted in her Twitter, that GHM/Adrian Zecha will be founding a new brand of chinese luxury hotels called "Ahn Lu", together with Beijing Tourism Group and Great Ocean Group.
Luckily, it will be intimate 50 to 100 room properties, "distilling the essence from the various brands that Adrian Zecha has successfully introduced over the years":

First properties in "two to three years":
- Ahn Luh Dujiangyan in Chengdu, which "is a project where the historical and cultural elements feature prominently given that the Dujiangyan Irrigation System, along with Mount Qingcheng, are placed together on the UNESCO World Heritage List”
- Beijing
- One in the Pearl River Delta
- One in Southwest China
---> I will include this new brand at the start of this thread, after I threw out the Setai brand after the Miami Beach Fiasco.
