Setai review 1 Users say 5/5 Rate it
In a case of Orient excess, the Setai boasts a four-bedroom penthouse with a $30,000 rack rate and the starriest clientele in town (Madonna holed up in said suite on a recent visit). But despite its celeb credentials, the Setai's brand of bling is understated; it avoids flash in favour of pristine Asian decor. The lobby's dark floor is made from Shanghai brick; jade pieces from Japan banish the bad spirits; and a Zen garden keeps the celebrities calm. Teak floors, furniture and blinds lend warmth to the minimalist bedrooms, as do the floral sculptures (the hotel's lobby alone is adorned with 570 roses). Bathrooms come stocked with granite tubs, rainshower heads and Laura Tonatto toiletries. Three side-by-side infinity pools ensure there are no crowds when you swim. Decadence rules at the Champagne, Crustacean and Caviar Bar, or in the restaurant, where the lavish menu includes Kobe beef and diver scallops. Sadly, there are no early-bird specials.
