Our Story
Perspectives
“We have to look at creative ways of growing the brand. Do we then need to be slightly more formulaic? The answer is no. We’re not looking to be the fastest-growing hotel brand, we want to grow organically with projects we like to do, in the ways we know our customers are going to appreciate.”
– Brian Williams, Senior Advisor of Swire Hotels
The hospitality industry is constantly evolving and reinventing itself. We're excited to be at the forefront of that change. Pushing for greater sustainability, championing quality over quantity and celebrating the people who drive new ideas.
