Skyline Loft

It is 6 square metres larger than the Skyline Suite on paper, and a different room altogether in practice, because the volume is doubled rather than the floor. The lower level is one continuous space — lounges, a dining table, a bar — with glass running two storeys up the outside wall, so the light behaves like a building's light rather than a hotel room's, and the city stands in the window at full height rather than in a strip.

Upstairs, on its own floor, are the bedroom and a spa-inspired bathroom, and the separation is the real luxury: two people can keep different hours here without negotiating. Walk-in wardrobe, the full signature inclusions, airport transfers. It costs a great deal more than the Skyline Suite, and it is the one suite here where the money buys something a photograph conveys.
