In designing the area for casual comfort, architect and interior designer Tony Chi succeeded in making it one of the most tranquil places in the hotel. Light meals, snacks, ice cream and exotic cocktails such as the Cosmopolitan and the mojito are served.
Cafezoe strikes just the right balance of modern international fare and classic Greek favourites in an elegantly hip setting.

On Sundays from October to June, the Greek table is filled with families and groups of friends sharing food, regional wines and live folkloric music in traditional Greek spirit. Through August 31, 2008, serving dinner on Sunday and Monday only.
