"I love the personal touch and stories that come with each room," says Su-Jit Lin, a travel and food writer. Some of the themes include China, London, the Arabian Peninsula, Fiji, and an African safari-inspired penthouse. "Also, what's really cool about the bar and lobby area is that it's a photo gallery of images from when the owner's grandfather was a sherpa for hiking in the Himalayas," Lin explains.
