Scene
Smart, elegant, and luxurious
Majestic Hotel Spa's facade lives up to it's name. Intricate black iron gates partially cover the rows of windows and potted topiaries under a black marquee add a sophisticated touch. Inside, the lobby has a highly-polished black and white marble
floor and a white reception desk manned by smartly-dressed staff. Hallways are
lined with elegant console tables and plush armchairs. The hotel is
immaculately-kept throughout. Decor is a mix of classic and modern French
style. The furniture is elegant and stylish; and rich, warm colors and fabrics
like velvet and silk give a feel of luxury. The restaurant has a more
contemporary vibe; the setting has been designed to suit the modern French
cuisine on offer. There are brightly colored leather chairs, and water glasses
to match. Splashes of color add vibrancy to the space, without being
garish.
