Recharge with a facial or body treatment at Sothys Skin Care Salon on the third floor, or savor Jing tea and truffles at the Mayfair Tea Room.

"An elegant and luxurious hotel, with an annex styled as a Japanese tea room for those wanting ryokan-style accommodation."
Time Out
"The setting can’t be faulted: the 501-room Westin sits against a verdant mountain and boasts gardens by master Jihei Ogawa and his son."
