The Bar/Lounge at Emiliano Hotel

"The Emiliano is also home to an excellent Italian restaurant, a Champagne and caviar bar, a state-of-the-art fitness center, and a spa"

"Despite being a boutique, the hotel has numerous features -- a spa, a 24-hour fitness center, a restaurant and two bars, a staffed business center, and even a rooftop helipad for guests arriving in style (though no pool)"

"Lobby bar pushes the chill factor with books available to accompany your beer"

"Settle into one of the Champagne & Caviar Bar’s bespoke armchairs — each made with hundreds of feet of beige rope by São Paulo design prodigies, the Campana Brothers — and choose from a menu of more than 75 different bubblies"

"For pure luxury, the Emiliano would match any modern hotel in Europe's best cities: rooms are large, with blonde-wood floors and furnishings—including Eames lounge chairs—and creamy leather sofas and banquettes"

"A small lounge area at the front provides a pleasant spot to read, relax or take advantage of the wireless Internet access while sitting on the mod circular sofa"
