Architecture  

The hotel atrium, a dramatic double curved structure of glue-laminated ribs and glass, is flanked by external panoramic lifts that bring guests to the public areas of the hotel and forms a memorable entrance to the pedestrian plaza. The visitor is brought up to reception level via a series of escalators or a pair of panoramic glazed lifts.

The resident’s bar sits within the atrium space and takes advantage of the views south across the square and west towards the city.

A concourse runs the width of the fully glazed South façade and links the restaurant and bar. The bar and restaurant are arranged around a courtyard garden offering a more intimate experience. Similarly the guest bedrooms offer two different experiences either opening onto a series of three heavily landscaped courtyard gardens or facing the pedestrian street to the west with spectacular views over the square and the city.
