Room

Deluxe Garden View Room

A king bed with the gardens filling the arched window beyond it — date palms and clipped green in the light, a gilt coffered ceiling overhead, and a teal lacquer bedside chest against pale timber.

Identical inside to the city room — dark wood with Arabian detailing, a marble bathroom with a tub and a separate shower, a balcony you can put two chairs on. What changes is what is under the balcony, and here it is planted ground: 85 hectares of it, 8,000 trees, watered at dusk so that the whole thing smells of wet earth by 7.

It is the quiet room. Nothing passes below you, the fountains are on the other side, and in the cool months you will hear birds rather than the Corniche. Take it over the city room if you sleep with the doors open.

The room

The bathroom in cream marble — a deep tub set into a lit alcove, a carved stone vanity with twin basins, wall sconces either side of the mirror and a folded towel tray on the counter.
