Waarom mensen ervan houden
- The 'La Piscina' adult pool parties with live DJs and sushi platters
- Opulent, Instagram-ready interiors featuring 1.5 million mosaic tiles and bespoke Versace furniture
- Surprisingly serene Creek views from the West Wing balconies
Snel Overzicht: It is an unapologetically gaudy fashion statement stranded in a developing neighborhood, but if you buy into the fantasy, it’s a blast.
Beoordeeld door @hatsonlipsticksonxx: I felt like absolute royalty staying here. The attention to detail is insane—Versace logos everywhere! My favorite part was the peaceful night swim after listening to the live violin in the lobby. Perfect for a romantic escape.

Reality check
While the lobby smells like expensive perfume, some rooms are showing wear with stained carpets and 'old' furniture.
- You own at least one item of clothing with a Medusa head on it
- You prefer lounging by a high-energy pool over exploring the city on foot
- You appreciate a hotel that pumps its own signature fragrance through the AC vents

5 dingen die je moet weten voordat je gaat
💡The hotel has its own signature scent that is pumped through the ventilation system—you will smell like Versace.
💡The 'City View' is often a euphemism for 'Construction View' as the area is still being built up.
💡The floor of the lobby features a mosaic of the Medusa head that you are technically not supposed to step on (bad luck!).
💡The 'Jungle' motif in the Giardino restaurant is actually the same print as J-Lo's famous green dress.
💡You can hear the call to prayer quite clearly from the nearby mosques, which adds atmosphere but might wake light sleepers.
