Accommodations include family rooms and suites to cater to parents traveling with their children. The hotel is slated to offer three contemporary dining outlets, including an all-day-dining restaurant with an open kitchen, a café, and a lobby lounge. 

Additional design plans call for a 25-meter outdoor pool and a well-equipped fitness center. After working out, guests can treat themselves to relaxation at the hotel’s spa featuring private treatment rooms, a sauna, and steam rooms. Traveling families can make the most of their time and relax at peace with the kid’s club featuring an outdoor play area. Other planned facilities include 756 square meters of flexible function space, including a large ballroom and four breakout rooms ideal for every occasion, from corporate conferences to weddings.

For business executives, The Residence is a highly flexible area that can be adapted to a variety of different functions.
