The hotel boasts 109 rooms designed with a sleek, contemporary aesthetic that combines style with functionality, ensuring guests enjoy a premium stay. Each room is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and sustainable features, complemented by a complimentary minibar stocked with a selection of snacks and beverages. Depending on the room category, guests can also enjoy additional amenities like a yoga mat or a premium coffee machine.
While some rooms offer stunning city views, others overlook a serene private garden complete with a terrace, offering guests a tranquil oasis amidst the bustling cityscape. The Loft rooms, characterised by their spacious layout and dedicated workspace, cater particularly well to business travellers seeking comfort and productivity during their stay.
