Hvorfor folk elsker det

  • The only rooftop pool deck on the Westside (Calabra)
  • Interiors that feel like a curated art museum
  • Surya Spa's authentic Ayurvedic treatments

Hurtig oversikt: A stunningly designed social hub where you'll pay a premium for the vibe, the valet, and the view.

Gjennomgått av @luxetravelgirl: I spent my birthday here and it was perfect. The gym is top-tier for my morning routine, and the design details in the room are just unmatched. Definitely get a terrace room for the extra space and fresh air!

The hype

Guests are obsessed with the decor and the rooftop views but frequently sticker-shocked by the fees and service lapses.

Reality check

Multiple reviews mention 'heavily used' furniture, stained upholstery, and a sense that the maintenance hasn't kept up with the high traffic.

  • You are an influencer or design aficionado
  • You want a buzzing social scene right in your hotel
  • You prioritize aesthetics over absolute quiet

Renslighet og vedlikehold

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally good daily service, though some reports of missed dust and rushed turnover.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Stone and tile are usually spotless, but watch for wear on fixtures.
  • Maintenance: High traffic is taking a toll—scuffed baseboards, stained rugs, and worn furniture are common complaints.
  • Linens & towels: High-quality Bellino and Fili D'oro linens, usually crisp and fresh.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells amazing (custom candle), but some rooms can have a lingering musty or cleaning product smell.

Romaske – kopier og lim inn
