Mandarin Oriental has built its reputation on the intersection of Eastern philosophy and Western luxury. The fan — a symbol of grace and refinement in Asian culture — is the brand’s icon. The Fan Club is the brand’s preferred advisor program, and it grants Midwest travelers access to a confirmed amenity package at Mandarin Oriental properties worldwide.
For travelers from Chicago heading to Hong Kong, Minneapolis residents planning a London escape, or Kansas City executives in New York on business — the Mandarin Oriental Fan Club, accessed through Erons Travel, changes how you experience these hotels.
Fan Club Benefits at Mandarin Oriental Properties
- Daily breakfast for two: at the hotel restaurant — at MO properties, this is often a serious, multi-course affair
- $100 USD hotel credit: per stay
- Complimentary room upgrade: one category, where available
- Early check-in / late checkout: when available
- Welcome amenity: pre-arranged
- Best Available Rate: no premium
Why Mandarin Oriental Is Different
In a world of luxury hotel chains that blur together, Mandarin Oriental stands out for two things: its spa program and its food and beverage operation. The MO Spa is consistently ranked among the finest hotel spa experiences globally. Many MO properties hold Michelin stars in their restaurants — the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park London has held a Michelin star continuously, and the Mandarin Oriental Tokyo’s Tapas Molecular Bar is a legendary tasting experience.
A Fan Club booking’s $100 hotel credit is a genuinely useful tool here. Applied toward a Michelin dinner or a signature MO Spa treatment, it offsets a meaningful portion of those experiences.
Top Mandarin Oriental Properties for Midwest Travelers
- Mandarin Oriental New York: Columbus Circle; Central Park views; a Midwest favorite for celebration trips and business stays
- Mandarin Oriental Chicago: the hometown property for many Midwest clients; the spa and afternoon tea program are standout
- Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong: the original, the flagship, the standard-bearer; harbor views and decades of legendary service history
- Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London: Knightsbridge location; Michelin-starred restaurant; perennial choice for Midwest travelers on European tours
- Mandarin Oriental Paris: a relatively newer property; stunning location near Place de la Madeleine; Fan Club upgrades here are particularly meaningful given the room tier differences
- Mandarin Oriental Bodrum, Turkey: a dramatic clifftop Aegean resort; emerging strongly in the Midwest traveler’s radar for Mediterranean escapes
The MO Spa as a Travel Anchor
A subset of Midwest travelers — particularly from Chicago, Minneapolis, and Cincinnati — plan trips specifically around the Mandarin Oriental spa experience. The brand has developed a philosophy called ‘The MO Way of Wellness,’ and the spa programs at flagship properties often run 2–3 hours and involve treatments specific to the local culture and ingredients.
For these clients, booking through a Fan Club advisor means the $100 credit has an obvious and immediate home — and the advisor can pre-arrange specific treatments and timing before arrival.
