Be sure to try the signature red vinegar sushi rice at Sushi Oga Higashiyama, where the finest seafood meets the renowned skills of sushi masters to bring the flavours of Japan to your plate. Nine Tails Bar is the perfect place to end your evening, boasting a menu of cocktails crafted from fresh local ingredients and Japanese spirits as well as a selection of mocktails. For all-day dining inspired by the seasons, visit Sekki, where you’ll find nourishing breakfasts, a serene afternoon tea service and Omakase-style meals for lunch and dinner.

You’ll also find a Watsu aquatic bodywork pool, an indoor pool and a 24-hour fitness centre.
