据彭博社等多家媒体报道，美国当地时间3月12日，中国安邦保险公司以65亿美元向美国私募基金巨头黑石集团(Blackstone)购入奢侈酒店Strategic Hotels & Resorts。
截至发稿，双方公司尚未正式宣布该交易，不过，一旦落实，将成为中国大陆企业在美国收购的最贵酒店地产。
Strategic在美国拥有16处地产，包括华盛顿特区的四季酒店、纽约曼哈顿埃塞克斯酒店、加州的尼古湖丽思卡尔顿酒店、旧金山的威斯汀酒店等。第三方调研公司的报告显示，该公司旗下酒店至2015年6月的入住率为70.9%。
2015年12月，黑石集团以60亿美元的代价接手Strategic。美联社报道称，扣除债务后，当时实际交易价格为39.3亿美元，原本计划分拆资产后出售，却接到了安邦方面提出的全面收购要约。于是，短短三个月后，黑石就以5亿美元的溢价将Strategic转手给了安邦。
彭博社称，豪华及奢华型房地产近些年一直是最抢手的资产，部分原因是他们所处的地段和建筑成本让他们难以被取代。在美国住宿业处于长达6年的复苏阶段后期之际，尽管酒店房价和入住率增长缓慢，但市场对久负盛名的酒店依然需求强劲。
手握大把现金，海外地产项目已经是中国保险资金投资的重要标的。

I have been staying in these hotel for the past two years. The first time, it wasnt that bad but it wasnt that great neither. Since then the hotel has done some renovations and the rooms look more modern with very comfortable beds and pillows, the linen has been upgraded as well. I think they have removed the nasty carpets in most of the rooms. The bathrooms look very clean and modern, at least in the family rooms. There used to work a front desk lady that was extremely rude and could barely speak any English but now there are working two ladies with a better attitude but still very poor English, yet they do try their best to communicate and they are way friendlier that the other one. The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to the airport. But if you come for the first time, you will have to pay for the ride to the airport, though it is not really a lot, about 15 or 20 CNY which it is nothing. For frequent guests, these shuttle bus will be free. They also give a free shuttle bus from the airport to the hotel, but I am not sure how this works. The breakfast is basically Chinese, the only Western would be coffee and toast, but no butter or jam. Overall, value for money is really good as they offer good rooms for a fair price. A similar hotel in Shanghais downtown will cost you at least double and I am not sure if you will find the same quality as this one. It is a far from Shanghai downtown but it is very close to Pudong Airport. There is a metro line nearby but definitely not walking distance. "Good pick-up service","Good value for money","Close to airport"

客观评价，优点:离机场近，且有免费送机服务。早餐就那样。缺点:房间隔音效果太差，隔壁洗澡冲水的声音都听得到，空调也老化，一打开，抽风声音像拖拉机，没法睡，幸好是冬天，不开空调盖厚点也能睡，淋浴头也是坏的
