Everything
I love the view the property provides and the service is exceptional, a special mention to Pawan who really set the mood for my partner and I with lighting and jazz playing in the background. It's an expensive stay, but you're paying for the best and it doesn't disappoint. The modern decor is also worth mentioning, everything about the Ritz-Carlton makes you want to come back.
