为什么人们喜欢它
- The 24/7 free art museum on the ground floor is genuinely world-class
- Lockbox restaurant's bank vault private dining is a major flex
- The iconic blue penguins that guests move around the hotel for photos
快速了解： A visually stunning cultural hub that unfortunately lets in way too much street noise to be a sanctuary.
@theeteleah 的评论：I treated myself to a weekend here and honestly, the vibe is unmatched. The room is so moody and chic—perfect for crashing after a day of shopping. That hidden minibar was my favorite surprise!
