How to pack light based on your room type

If you book a Deluxe room, Junior Suite, or Panorama Suite

These categories include a kettle and complimentary tea selection, which is especially convenient for guests who enjoy a quiet start or end to the day. Suites also offer separate living space, which helps families unpack more efficiently and keep the room tidy.
