“Travelers nowadays are tired of the conventional hotel experience but are still unsure about the consistency of what online short-term lodging offers.

“We want to create a product that is experiential and exciting, and at the same time consistent and operationally well run.”
Chan aims to not only build Taiwan’s next-generation landmark skyscraper of innovation, efficiency, and sustainability, but also a diversified lifestyle luxury destination in Taipei that caters to high-end travellers from around the globe.
