Set in the green mountains, this modern and architecturally grand 5-star resort will be the highest in the region and the second highest hotel in the world. Perched at the edge of a canyon with fantastic views of the peninsular and surrounded by dramatic scenery, the hotel will be the perfect place for one to explore and seek adventure. Alternatively simply relax in the surroundings or at the 5-star hammam.
