The rooms
Compact rooms are straightforward and functional, leaving the playful design details for the public lounge downstairs.
Restaurant
One Lounge
Crystal bulb pendants light the bar's typographic backdrop. The counter serves an organic breakfast buffet and evening drinks.
How it began

Archaeologists surveyed the grounds to document the old city fortifications and historic White Gate before construction began in 2009.
