Rooms
In each of the accommodation units priority is placed on light, aesthetics and high class surroundings. The ivory-coloured walls and marbled beige carpeting on the floors perfectly frame the furniture design. This is supported by the ivory upholstery which adds to the room's lightness and matches the rest of the furniture. The prestigious Italian supplier who was commissioned works exclusively with sgraffito-style solid wood. The console supports a plasma satellite/cable TV which can be watched from the comfort of the room's bed (including a specially designed bed base from Bed Time) or from the 'Louis Ghost' armchair with a methacrylate resin finish which was designed by Philippe Starck. The room's private bathroom features a bath and hairdryer, whilst a radio, Internet access, safe and minibar are also provided. All rooms include individually regulated air conditioning and heating.
