Bespoke details define the accommodations, from custom-made Cassina furnishings walnut writing desks finished in beige leather and glossy patina.

Meanwhile, entertainment systems feature 46-inch flatscreen LED TVs (55 inches in suites), internet TV, iPod/iPad docking station, and surround sound.LED touch-screen panels also are available in the marble bathrooms for viewing TV or creating a light and sound experience.
