Roland Fasel - COO of Aman Resorts

Aman has long been considered the coolest hotel brand in the world - ever since the opening of Amanpuri in Phuket in the late 80s. Different challenges abound these days with some properties shut or, if open, only partially so. With 32 properties worldwide and a number in the pipeline I caught up with COO of Aman, Roland Fasel to discuss the challenges that the group faces with the opening of their flagship property in New York on hold and how Aman is facing up to the new normal of infrequent long distance travel, more focus on local markets and how they can continue to 'slow time down' with their inimitable Aman style. If anyone can provide luxury in a bubble then it is surely Aman.
