Led by interior designers BARstudio, the refurbishment project includes addition of three luxury rooftop suites. All the hotel rooms will be completely redesigned including architectural fixtures and finishes, custom designed contemporary lighting, new furniture and unique artwork by Australian artists.
The hotel’s restaurants and bars, private dining rooms, day spa and recreational facilities will undergo a complete makeover. Energy-efficient lighting and water-saving devices are expected to be added throughout the hotel.
The hotel’s new interiors will offer a natural feel with rich layers of chocolate, cream and beige hues. Designed to celebrate the indoor-outdoor experience, all guest rooms will feature floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open onto spacious private balconies.
In addition to the complete makeover of its accommodation, the hotel’s restaurants and bars, private dining rooms, day spa and recreational facilities will also be enhanced.
The project has been stated to be the largest renovation in the hotel’s 20-year history. The reopening of the hotel is scheduled in October 2011.
