Highs & Lows
-
The staff are incredible. Before you can even think of what you need next, someone will be right there providing you with it.
-
The design of all the public areas is beautiful, but not so over designed that you can’t relax. It is the perfect blend of sophistication and comfort.
-
I will never forget the first bite of the Jason Atherton-conceived crispy, flavor-packed “sushi taco” which is by far the best thing I've tasted in 2018.
-
The staff uniforms: so cool and so classy.
-
All of EDITION’s hotels have adopted a plastic free policy, so you won’t see straws, plastic water bottles, etc. anywhere here.
-
No full length mirror in the rooms, but just travel with trusted friends and family and your outfit should be all good.
