Amenities include in-room IPTVs loaded with the latest games, Nespresso machines, access to the property’s sustainable electric car and easy check-out via a QR code-enabled express check-out system.

On-site dining includes BEI Commune, a neighborhood restaurant and bar serving fresh and seasonal food all day alongside a selection of cocktails and teas. A grab-and-go counter provides free refreshments. The hotel hosts a daily happy hour for drinks alongside a buffet of salad and charcuterie.
