- A la carte restaurants now charge a cover fee (approx €30-40pp) for standard guests.
- The 'Regnum Lounge' is a lifesaver—use it to shower and change if you arrive before check-in.
What to pack
- Golf shoes (even for the driving range)
- Smart casual outfits for dinner (dress codes are enforced)
- Goggles for the heated outdoor pools in winter
Room Genie
Best picks
- Jade Room Golf View (quieter, green views)
- Pearl Pool Room (direct swim-up access, worth the splurge in summer)
Rooms to avoid
- Main building rooms facing the event area if you sleep before midnight
- Ground floor rooms near the main walkways (privacy issues)
Room Request Genie – copy & paste
“I would appreciate a Jade Room in a higher floor block facing the Golf Course for maximum quiet, away from the main stage and pool activity.”
