"Contemporary glass and steel hotel set just outside the city, on a man-made island in the harbour."

Well-equipped bedrooms, some with balconies; choose a water over a city view.
Frommer's
"Once you're inside, you'll find the place either fascinating or terrifying -- or perhaps a combination of both -- thanks to vertigo-inducing catwalks that crisscross the soaring glass-enclosed lobby." Full review

Light sleepers should ask for rooms above the second floor.
DK Eyewitness
