He continues there are now five new categories of rooms, from "study" to "harbour,"which all "span a wider price range", and have"been updated to a space-age standard" with features which include "flat-panel LCDs, iPod docks,and Hermès toiletries". There are several dining opportunities but our reporter suggests a trip to the "25th floor, rising high above the Central skyline" where are the "renowned chef Pierre Gagnaire's restaurant and the panoramic M Bar".
