The spacious lobby is brightly appointed, with two lifts opposite the reception desk. The 189 avant garde, spacious and outward-facing guestrooms feature soothing beige and cream décor. All are clean and well maintained, as are the generously sized en suite bathrooms with tub/shower combos. The hotel’s other facilities include the Cyber Corner, WiFi, a huge car park and a Spa and Fitness Centre (located on the ground floor). It is ideal for meetings, business and leisure travels or urban relaxation. The restaurant offers a very popular daily set menu, à la carte menus and a Four Seasons buffet breakfast.
