I say this in every thread that the Chedi is mentioned, but wow is right - what an absolutely amazing property. Maybe not the best hotel I've ever been to, but it is still the one my SO and I look back on most fondly. The rate is a steal for what is included, as well (laundry, minibar, butler, etc.).
