While the rooms are awesome to look at, the price tag is a little steep (an average of about $763) and we couldn't help but wonder whether we were better off gazing at photos of the place rather than actually staying in a room. We headed over to TripAdvisor to investigate — and it turns out, if many of these reviews are to be believed, we should probably just save our money.

A TripAdvisor Member said:

it was calm, cool, chiq [sic] and dark. However, it was a little too 'cool', the room was very small (no plasma tv or Stark bath in a 300 euro/night room) the bathroom was very compact and the shower leaked badly (the hydro shower was very ineffective).

And Lucyluu said the design was just a little over-the-top:

Room looks fancy but it just a bit a irritating (curtains close with a slow electric button; I'm capable of closing my own curtains. Also don't need a big leaf in my sink and wish the subtle lighting actually allowed me to see what I was doing).

Alright, so we'll just sit here and look at photographs. Remember, hotel design friends: your rooms can be all sorts of crazy and fashionable, but they've gotta be functional too.
