“The rooftop pool and bar are undeniably the stars, showcasing magnetic views. Dining shines with Japanese cuisine, though some experiences miss the mark expected of a luxury establishment. While spacious accommodations impress, service inconsistencies need addressing to fulfill the five-star promise.”
