There are more restaurants at the hotel which are operated by tenant, these are Sapporo Ramen Miharu - authentic Japenese Noodle restaurant, Torisho Taka By Aoki - authentic yakitori restaurant and Satsuma Shochu Dining Bar - serving Sakano with a touch of Tokyo fusion.
exteriorThe building is modern in monolithic lego like blocks with lego like color highlights. The cantilevered glass-sided lap pool tops this ultra modern building. Its is a study in ultra modern building design and contrast remarkably well with the restored and other unrestored warehouses and shophouses along the historical Singapore River.
lobbyThe lobby like the building with clean metallic lines. Seemingly a cold first impression but made up for as one adjusts to the modern architecture.

Scores of pubs and restaurants are within a 10 minutes walk. Guest could enjoy wire broadband in the room or wireless broadband at the restaurant and lounge at a nominal fee. Recommended for the trendy young traveller, this is one of Singapore's hippest hotel.
