This is The Worst New Luxury Hotels List of 2015:
1. Nobu, Manilla
A highly regarded and prestigious restaurant operator, the Nobu brand has been somewhat tarnished in recent years due to some questionable developments and over expansion, including this new hotel, located within a casino complex in Manilla. There is a lot to like about the property, but the problems stem from the fact that if you are staying at a Nobu hotel (with the accompanying price tag) then you have expectations and a belief that you will experience something very special. Yet, there are disappointments at every turn and we are left underwhelmed and disenchanted.
