Hotel · City Center · 50 tips and reviews
J.R. Shoman: Go for drinks on the terrace, enjoy the moonlight and music, and make certain you order the SLS's signature gin & tonic - it's out of this world.
Travel + Leisure: The SLS is very much about drinking and spending and having boisterous dinners, but it isn't juvenile. Even Philippe Starck's interiors are fairly restrained. For more: http://tandl.me/XNIs5u
