Çırağan Palace Kempinski İstanbul invites guests on a journey through time with the newly introduced ‘Historical Corridor Tours’, offering an immersive exploration of the palace’s glorious past—captivating those who have seen it and intriguing those who have not.
As the only palace and hotel on the Bosphorus that once belonged to the Ottoman Empire, Çırağan Palace Kempinski İstanbul presents exclusive tours showcasing the magnificent stories told within the History Corridor.
This corridor, which connects the hotel and palace sections, has been reimaged under the consultation of A. Çağrı Başkurt, Çırağan Palace Historical Gallery Curator and Cultural Advisor.

Guests eager to explore the palace’s rich history can embark on a guided tour to trace the past and witness the grandeur of the Ottoman era. Led by a licensed, professional guide, the tours reveal the deep-rooted history of Çırağan Palace and its many untold stories.
This immersive experience not only highlights the palace’s centuries-old elegance but also offers breathtaking views of the Bosphorus. The journey concludes with a special sherbet offering at the Historic Hammam, a section of the palace that has preserved its original authenticity and remains closed to the public, except for this exclusive experience.
Ralph Radtke, General Manager of Çırağan Palace Kempinski İstanbul and Regional Director of Kempinski Residences Türkiye, shared his thoughts on this exceptional experience: “Çırağan Palace Kempinski İstanbul is a historic palace hotel that garners worldwide attention with its unique history. Our primary focus has always been to preserve our legacy and promote our destination with the utmost care, acknowledging our prominent position in the industry.
The recent redesign of our hotel rooms, lobby, spa and restaurants seamlessly blends historical textures with modern elegance, reflecting the legacy of Çırağan Palace throughout the property. Building on this transformation, we have created an exclusive historical tour available only to our in-house guests.”

Metropole Hanoi Marks 50th Anniversary of War’s End with Special Bomb Shelter Tours
Metropole Hanoi Bomb Shelter Tours
Guests can visit the bunker under Metropole Hanoi where Joan Baez and others hid during air raids
As the world prepares to mark the 50th anniversary of the end of the U.S.-Vietnam War, guests at one of Southeast Asia’s most storied hotels are invited to revisit the conflict’s history in a unique and personal way.
Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi’s special “Path of History” tour includes a visit down into the hotel’s underground bomb shelter, which shielded visitors including Joan Baez, Jane Fonda and others during wartime air raids.
The bunker was closed and sealed after the 1964-1975 conflict before being rediscovered by chance during the renovation of the hotel’s Bamboo Bar in 2011. The war ended April 30, 1975.
The tour, led by a Metropole historian, is exclusively offered to in-house hotel guests twice daily, at 5pm and 6pm. It also includes a look at old photographs of famous hotel guests over the decades (Charlie Chaplin honeymooned at the Metropole and numerous heads of state and royalty have also stayed there), along with vintage artifacts like century-old room keys.
But the highlight for many is the visit to the bomb shelter, where guests can experience the atmosphere of the subterranean chambers and learn what it was like for those who sought shelter there. Guests listen to Joan Baez’s song “Where Are You Now, My Son,” which intersplices music, spoken word and the sound of air-raid sirens, and was inspired by several days of bombings in December 1972.
As part of its commemorations marking the war’s end, Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi this month welcomed back Uzaki Makoto, a former reporter for Japan’s Nihon Denpa News, who stayed at the hotel between 1971-1974 while reporting on the war in the north of VIetnam. NDN is thought to be the only foreign video news outlet that had an office in Hanoi during the conflict.
During his visit, Uzaki returned to the room where he had once lived and worked, reflecting on the memories, including moments he spent in the hotel’s bomb shelter that kept him and the other guests safe. The journalist huddled in the bunker with Baez in 1972 during the air raids.
The 124-year-old luxury hotel is steeped in history. Last year, Metropole Hanoi marked the relaunch of its historic Heritage Wing following an extensive and inspired refurbishment. The Metropole Heritage Wing, with 103 guest rooms and suites, was meticulously restored and renovated under a 21-month construction project.
The new interiors maintain their traditional aesthetic and feel, and incorporate select original fixtures, while also introducing a considerable measure of bespoke comfort, advanced technology and vibrant color.

Crowne Plaza in U.S. launches new ‘Bring Your Bestie’ promotion
Crowne Plaza ‘Bring Your Bestie’
Crowne Plaza’s recently released white paper, Leading the Charge in Blended Travel, explores how the rise of hybrid working has amplified the flexibility between work and leisure, resulting in the increased ability to achieve meaningful in-person connections – at home or on the road.
The increased convenience of blended travel has placed a renewed emphasis on togetherness and prioritizing quality relationships – cherishing the people who matter most and dedicating time to nurture those bonds. This shift has given rise to a new trend – “Bring Your Bestie” travel, where travelers invite friends and loved ones to accompany them on work trips, blending business with leisure and creating opportunities to deepen personal relationships.
The Rise of “Bring Your Bestie” Travel
According to recent data from Crowne Plaza’s global YouGov survey of over 12,000 people, 74% of U.S. travelers noted they would invite a friend or family member on a work trip – with Gen Z and Millennials as the generations most likely to do so. In fact, nearly 40% of U.S. travelers combine work and leisure travel specifically to spend quality time with family and friends.
Traveling for business with a companion offers clear benefits: it is not only more enjoyable, but it also supports a healthier balance between work and relaxation, reducing stress and boosting overall well-being. Sharing downtime with someone can lead to a greater sense of rejuvenation and focus, which may enhance productivity during work hours. Additionally, having a companion allows for a fuller exploration of the destination, with opportunities to enjoy local sights and cultural experiences together, strengthening bonds and creating lasting memories.
While there are many advantages to bringing a plus one on a blended travel trip, there are still opportunities to enhance the experience for both travelers and their guests. Key findings include:
- Creating a Welcoming Environment for Plus Ones Is Key: Nearly 1 in 5 U.S. respondents have invited a family member or friend to join them on a work trip without disclosing it to their employer, and 34% of respondents noted that company policies or guidelines influenced their decision to bring a guest on their trip.
- Streamlining Costs Makes Traveling with a Companion More Accessible: Over a third of U.S. respondents mentioned they may hesitate to invite friends or family on work trips because of the added costs.
- Travelers are Looking for Ways to Keep Their Guests Entertained While They Work: 1 in 4 people noted that itineraries or activities for the person they are traveling with to keep them occupied while they are working would be a valuable amenity to encourage blended travel.
Crowne Plaza Introduces New Bring Your Bestie Package
Inspired by these findings, Crowne Plaza has launched the Bring Your Bestie package to encourage travelers to bring a plus one on their next work trip.
This offering lets your plus one enjoy all the perks of a business traveler during their leisure stay – while you get to turn your work trip into a more memorable, shared experience:
- Complimentary breakfast to kickstart the day
- A signature drink per night of stay to relax at the end of the day and signal the transition from work to leisure
- 1,000 bonus IHG One Rewards points, which can be used toward future Reward Nights, exclusive experiences, and more
- Curated itineraries designed to enhance solo time and foster meaningful interactions during downtime
The package can also be used to tag on an extra personal day before or after a work trip, to spend more time together and make the most of travel time.
“Today’s professionals are embracing blended travel and the perks it offers. Bringing a plus one on a work trip was once kept under the radar, but times have changed,” said Ginger Taggart, Vice President of Brand Management – Global Premium Brands, IHG Hotels & Resorts. “Connectivity is at the heart of the Crowne Plaza brand, guiding how we deliver service and spaces across our hotels. The Bring Your Bestie offer delivers upon guests’ needs for shared experiences and meaningful relationships.”
The limited time offering is available to book at select Crowne Plaza properties featuring the brand’s New Modern design, from now through May 12, for stays until July 10, including:

Crowne Plaza Fort Myers Gulf Coast
Crowne Plaza Indianapolis-Downtown-Union Station
Crowne Plaza Louisville Airport Expo Center

Dragon Pearl Cave in Vietnam’s North To Unveil “Dreamlike” Dining Experience
Dragon Pearl Cave
The majestic Dragon Pearl Cave in Vietnam’s north will metamorphose into a restaurant and concert hall from April this year when Asia Premier Cruises (APC) Corporation launches a cave dining experience accompanied by live entertainment.
The 2.5-hour cave dining experience, believed to be one of the largest of its kind on the planet, will be on offer for lunch and dinner daily at the 4000-square-metre cave.
About a 30-minute drive from Halong City, Dragon Pearl Cave is one of the biggest caves in the Bai Tu Long area of Vietnam’s Cam Pha district.
Surrounded by the Ban Co mountain range, Dragon Pearl Cave is one of a complex of five caves in the Vung Duc historical relic site. Situated 45 metres above sea level, the cave formed around 150 million years ago and is dubbed ‘a theatre inside a mountain’ by locals due to its two chambers and myriad stalagmites and stalactites.
APC’s chefs are crafting a dining experience that will cater to up to 800 guests. Options will range from an international buffet to white table fine dining. A captivating 45-minute live performance, that is still being finalised, will precede the cave dining.
Filled with natural daylight that enters the top of the cave, Dragon Pearl Cave’s first chamber will serve as a reception area before guests move into the second, larger chamber, which will host entertainment and dining.
Nguyen Cao Son, the chairman of APC, which owns Halong Bay’s leading boutique cruise line Ambassador Cruise, said the cave dining journey was poised to become a “bucket-list item”.
“Our mystical cave dining journey will mark a new milestone in Vietnam’s cultural tourism, turning a UNESCO World Heritage listed site into a remarkable stage that celebrates nature, history, art and good cuisine in a way never seen before.” Nguyen added.

Conrad Singapore Orchard, Manhattan Bar, Home to the World’s First In-Hotel Rickhouse
Conrad Singapore Orchard Manhattan
Manhattan at Conrad Singapore Orchard is a grand hotel bar inspired by the 19th century’s Golden Age of cocktails and fine drinking, with a glamorous yet modern space reminiscent of old New York.
Manhattan exudes an upscale contemporary feel with luxuriously upholstered leather chairs and sofas and walls lined with patterned woven linen. The openness of the design ensures that every guest entering the door will soak in the theatre of craft bartending.
Featuring over 100 American oak barrels from a small cooperage in Minnesota, the world’s first in-hotel rickhouse is housed here, used to finish whiskies and other spirits, and to age bitters and single-cask cocktails.
In the rickhouse, Manhattan embraces the concept of Solera Aging for its cocktails, a technique initially developed by the Spanish and Portuguese for sherries to maintain consistency over different vintages.
The result is a sophisticated blend of young and old that brings depth, character, complexity, and roundness into your glass.
Other must-tries include a unique solera-aged Negroni and a first-of-its-kind trolley service that elevates the classic Manhattan cocktail by blending rare and house-finished spirits, artisanal vermouths and a unique collection of bitters to each guest’s taste.
Equally noteworthy, a premium ice programme carefully designed to showcase the multitude of rare, house-made and artisanal ingredients in the cocktails. Made from water of the highest quality, the array of high-purity, high-density hand-cut ice offerings ensure flavours take centre stage, enhancing your experience.
Manhattan’s tireless attention to detail also extends to its custom cocktail glasses. Shaken cocktail lovers can sip from the rim of an elegantly striated coupe, while stirred whiskey enthusiasts can imbibe from the depths of one-of-a-kind Nick and Nora styled stemware.
In addition, Manhattan invites guests to get acquainted with the world of American whiskies through its American Whiskey Embassy programme. Putting a spotlight on the great whiskies from the United States of America, the bar team scoured across the world to present a specially curated list of the American spirit.
Thoughtfully and rigorously researched, the growing collection features over 150 bottles of whiskies, including a range of rare and collectible ones. All of which are housed in the Whiskey Glasshouse.
At Manhattan, food isn’t an afterthought. To complement the inspired beverages, chefs reinvent iconic New York gastronomy, serving up gourmet bar bites that reflect New York’s melting pot of cultures.
The St. Louis Pork Ribs ($22) and New York Hot Dogs ($23) are excellent for sharing, as is the Crab ($24) – deep-fried crab tortellini with leek cream cheese and Peking jus.
Other libation-friendly standouts include the Smashed Burger ($34), a succulent double wagyu patty with American cheese, onions, and pickled cucumber, served with straight-cut fries, and the Lobster Mac and Cheese ($46) served with blue cheese, oak-smoked cheddar, taleggio, nacho, and truffle breadcrumbs. The team’s clever interpretation of The Big Apple Cheesecake ($14) pays tribute to the Big Apple.

Wynn Palace Reinvents Wing Lee Bar Led by Head Mixologist Mark Lloyd
Wynn Palace Wing Lee Bar
The overhauled Wing Lei Bar at Wynn Palace, Cotai, Macao is more than just a makeover, it represents a significant shift in how hotel bars engage with their guests. The bar team embraces the spirit of personality-driven mixology, juxtaposing the palatial setting with an approachable and friendly service style.
Mark Lloyd, known for his imaginative techniques and fresh perspective, is shaking up the traditional hotel bar narrative and introducing a new era where flair meets authenticity. Guests can now relish in the luxury of an upscale bar experience without the stuffiness that often accompanies such venues.
A native of Scotland, Lloyd traveled and worked extensively throughout Asia for the past 15 years. Having founded multiple bar concepts across five continents, the industry veteran further cemented his credibility in global bartending knowledge, after tenures as operations director and bar consultant in Bangkok, Hong Kong and Shanghai, including his time at the renowned bar chain J. Boroski.
Lloyd believes that bartenders are tour guides in the guest experience, whether it be a neighborhood watering hole or an opulent hotel bar. He forgoes heavily scripted service monologues, often heard in hotel concepts, and instead, presents the essence of the bar through its grand interior, the charming personalities, and his patience to understand each customer’s individual needs.
Debuting on March 12, Lloyd’s two-prong cocktail program is split between a redesigned signature menu that highlights 12 reimagined takes on four classic cocktail styles (sours, stirred, classics, and alternatini). The menu features an enticing array of repurposed ingredients sourced from inter-hotel departments and dining establishments.
Embodying a philosophy of “limitless cocktails,” Lloyd’s creativity knows no bounds, and every gastronomic ingredient – from char siu off-cuts to avocado peels – is a potential star on the cocktail stage. This approach engages both novice and seasoned cocktail aficionados alike, ensuring each visit offers something never experienced before.
To further enhance its offerings, Wing Lei Bar proudly announces the launch of its culinary-inspired cocktail guest shift series in 2025. Kicking off on March 13, Thursday at 8 pm, the inaugural event will spotlight Union Trading Company (#48 on World’s 50 Best Bars 2021). A celebrated Shanghai establishment with a decade of history under its belt. Under the tutelage of the talented Yao Lu, The Union Trading Company’s general manager, Patrick Zhou, will showcase vibrant spices, ingredients, and flavors from the streets of Shanghai, translating culinary artistry into exquisite cocktails.
Wing Lei Bar has already hosted industry icons like Sebastian Atienza and Lucilia Calichio from Tres Monos (#7 on World’s 50 Best Bars 2024), Lorenzo Antinori from Bar Leone (#2 on World’s 50 Best Bars 2024), Joe Schofield from Schofield’s Bar (#1 on UK Top 50 Cocktail Bars 2024), and many more. Looking ahead in 2025, Wing Lei Bar has already secured an impressive roster of guest shifts and events each month, plus never-before-seen in Asia talents set for July.
