Dining
The essence of southeast Asia comes alive at Spice Market, a remarkable restaurant that bursts with the scents of curries and Thai spices and uses a family-style approach to dining. The interior, designed with dark woods, brass, and stone, is a fusion in itself and the perfect backdrop for Chef Vongerichten’s fusion cuisine. The W Lounge is the place to see and be seen, enjoy inventive cocktails, and listen to an eclectic mix of music. Sip is an intimate corner lounge where guests can indulge in a delicious cocktail, browse books, and sample an appetizer.

Spa

The comprehensive offerings include treadmills, ellipticals, stationary cycles, free weights, and more. If you want a little more guidance—or someone to hold you accountable—personal trainers are available to design and help you implement a program tailored to your goals and interests. Following a workout, highly-trained therapists will deliver a variety of relaxing and beautifying services in the W’s spa treatment rooms.
