"How did it strike you on arrival?Inside the world's tallest tower, Giorgio Armani’s first hotel property is as glam as you'd expect from the Italian designer. Armani himself oversaw every single detail from the minimalist, single-hued furnishing to the flower arrangements. Nice. What’s the crowd like?Fashion-forward travelers from Europe, Asia, and the Americas. The good stuff: Tell us about your room.With 11 different sizes across the 160 total guest rooms, rooms vary, but all are serene with chocolate, taupe, and grey furnishings. High-tech iPads control lighting and curtains, and the branding here is strong. We’re craving some deep, restorative sleep. They got us?Beds are comfortable and a menu of six different pillow options is available. How about the little things, like mini bar, or shower goodies. Any of that find its way into your suitcase?The minibar is stocked with complimentary cold drinks. The Armani Fountain Suites have floor-to-ceiling windows with expansive views of, well, the fountains. Please tell us the bathroom won’t let us down.Bathrooms have Armani/Prive amenities, high-pressure rain showers, and tubs that are surprisingly small given the rest of the property’s grandeur. Room service: Worth it?Even room service is chic, toting food on sqaure leather carts rather than the traditional metal trolleys. Anything stand out about other services and features? Whether it’s childcare, gyms, spas, even parking—whatever stuck with you.Armani/Ristorante is a destination in its own right for its Italian food and ambience. If you’re planning on visiting the mall, you can traverse the hotel’s own private corridor to get there. Every guest has their own “Lifestyle Manager” (aka a butler) to help with whatever they might need. Breakfast is included. What was most memorable—or heartbreaking—about your stay?The sleek rooms, stunning views, word-class spa, and unbeatable location are an unbeatable combination for the Armani brand." - Laura Ratliff
