The curvaceous and sinuous design of the Grand Lounge plays with shape and form, creating visual elements that are striking yet understated. Its palette – evoking metals and minerals in shades of bronze, onyx and alabaster – lends balance and quiet intrigue. The resulting space exudes exclusivity, reminiscent of a refined private club, inviting guests to savor an aperitif before dinner or a nightcap while reflecting on the day’s adventures with fellow explorers.

In the evening, Opus Lounge is the chic hotspot where one goes to be noticed. Where else could you order ready-made Negronis that come straight from a wooden barrel, imparting an oaky undertone that whispers of old-world secrets? Vapor-filled bubbles with aromatic flavors are infused in cocktails, bringing a unique twist to both classic and contemporary concoctions. Aged bourbons with hints of caramel and vanilla and grassy, spicy ryes have been hand-selected from the most distinguished distilleries. Or settle into a snug armchair and watch your cocktail of choice be prepared ta

Sip complimentary illy® delights, enjoying the energizing kick of an espresso or the smooth richness of a cappuccino. The perfect complement to your coffee might just be a French or Italian specialty fresh from the Bakery’s ovens. Perhaps you’ll sample a flaky, ricotta-filled sfogliatella, a confection that hails from the Italian region of Campania. Accompany the perfect cup with a buttery dark chocolate croissant or the citrus hints of an orange biscotti. For an afternoon indulgence, the Crêperie offers a sublime selection of savory crêpes, waffles and gelato sundaes.

Red Ginger makes an immediate and powerful statement with its stunning, bold decor. Rich tones of cinnamon, jade and polished ebony woods are accented by intricately etched glass screens. To complement the stunning interior, Red Ginger’s chefs have created a striking menu, noted for its contemporary interpretations of Asian classics. You might begin with a salad of roast duck and watermelon with cashews, mint and Thai basil. Savor a nutty braised beef Malay curry with coconut rice and paratha roti, or Asian-spiced rack of lamb with kohlrabi, creamed spinach and truffle oil. For dessert, green tea banana cake with toffee and hazelnut sauce served with coconut ice cream is the perfect ending. In Red Ginger, the gustatory pleasures are as striking as the visual ones.
