Up on level 12, the hotel’s signature restaurant Mid Air cranks up the hotel’s playful design language in step with its vibrant Mediterranean fare. Part indoors, part open-air terrace, the space is animated by a sun-kissed palette of reds, ochres and terracotta, with deep blue accents providing visual punctuation. Diamond-patterned tiles that rise onto bar counters and cropped, sinuous curtains that drape the walls lend the space a flair that borders on theatrical. Meanwhile, the large circular openings punctuating the terrace walls frame the city with a wink.

Chef Nick Deligiannis brings substance to the spectacle, serving Mediterranean-inspired dishes with confident creativity, including spanner crab crumpets at breakfast, lamb breast with vine leaf chermoula, and baked haloumi with charred lemon at lunch and dinner, and a sundae finale served with nostalgic indulgence.

Downstairs, Marmelo restaurant and Mr Mills bar occupy the ground and basement levels respectively, each with a distinct mood but similar design. Hardwood floors, timber wall cladding and brushed metal details establish an understated urban vibe in both venues, while banquette seating upholstered in rich tapestry fabrics adds opulence and intimacy. Textural clay and hand-painted tiles reminiscent of the streets of Lisbon provide a decorative punctuation that echoes the Iberian influences of the menus.

Bathed in daylight through floor-to-ceiling windows, Marmelo’s double-height dining room is understated yet dramatic featuring a gleaming, glass-fronted wine cellar, a serpentine light installation suspended overhead and a custom charcoal grill and wood oven. In contrast, Mr Mills exudes late-night allure with low lighting, edgy artwork, and intimate booths setting the tone. Connecting the two venues, a sweeping yellow-green staircase encapsulates the hotel’s layered tactile, theatrical personality.
