What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The seven-floor property has 143 rooms, all oriented toward mountain views, and a design language that weaves ocean and music references through the public spaces.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Mount Fushan rises directly behind the hotel. Down the hill, the seaside sculpture park sits a short walk away.

The rooms
Walnut paneling and custom leather trunks furnish the rooms, which look out toward Mount Fushan.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
A glass-block wall glows beside the indoor pool, which uses a diatomaceous earth reverse osmosis filtration system.
The spa
Gym and Pilates studio
Hammer Strength weight machines fill the gym, and wooden reformer apparatuses sit beneath circular skylights in the studio.
Restaurant
The MOSS
Leather booths look out onto the courtyard garden. The kitchen bakes wood-fired Neapolitan pizzas and grills dry-aged steaks.
How it began
The name plays on musical rhythm and stage encores, punning on Chinese phrases for good fortune and creative collaboration.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
