elevators and escalators lead up to the spacious, elegant lobby. The airy space is decorated with neutral colors and mint green couches; orchids adorn tables. A mix of families,
couples, and business travelers frequent the hotel. There’s a posh restaurant on-site,
Sonata, with white chairs and sleek tables with frosted glass tops. Ceiling
decorations such as leaf-shaped lights and a red-and-white ball-shaped pendant
light are chic additions to the space. On the 30th floor, there’s a
bar, Skyzone Deck & Lounge, where guests can sit along the windows on tall
metal chairs and take in the views of Victoria Harbour and the city lights
while enjoying a cocktail. Overall this is a polished property with artistic design elements and gorgeous skyline views.
