Accommodations


 
Each of the 45 bedrooms has been designed by Anouska Hempel, every detail reconstructed to provide the ideal blend of colour, texture and atmosphere. The colour schemes are daring, stunning and dramatic, all designed with a vibrant spirit, the passion for travel and life as it should be, romantic and thought provoking.

Black and mustard, rich cardinal reds, lavender, vanilla, washes of tea rose and a room that is white on white on white on white, offering style and elegance to the discerning traveller. In the business of making dreams a reality, unable to accept the ordinary Anouska Hempel is creating a world of excellence one room at a time. All rooms have a telephone with voice mail and modem ports, television with satellite channels, VCR and a safe.
