5) "The World's Best Hotels 2007 - Where Luxury Lives". Anonymous; Institutional Investor. Nov, 2007. p. 1.
As they expand, luxury hotel chains and boutiques are competing with established landmark properties to cater to the needs of pressured but well-heeled executives. Institutional Investor's (II) annual ranking of the World's Best Hotels features significant changes at the top, reflecting the fluid but exacting nature of the market. II's voters rate the Ritz-Carlton, Battery Park, at the southern tip of New York's Manhattan island, as their favorite hotel. The hotel, the first luxury accommodation to open in Wall Street's vicinity, is far from the established bastions on Park Avenue and Central Park South and has been open for less than six years. Leading hotels in Europe and Asia also include some relative newcomers that offer time-honored luxury with a modern twist. Berlin's Adlon Kempinski was erected a decade ago on the ruins of a cherished Weimar-era institution. Today it beats with the pulse of Germany's vibrant, new-old capital. In Bangkok the Sukhothai offers exquisite Thai service in a distinctively relaxed and private setting, smack in the heart of the capital's financial district.
