Fodor's Expert Review PARKROYAL on Pickering

The stunning architecture at this hotel integrates environmental principles both inside and out; its lush sky gardens can be seen from the street. Floor-to-ceiling glass windows are used throughout to decrease the need for artificial lighting, recycled stone and glass show up in the bathrooms, and rainwater is used to water the greenery found on the lobby's walls. Colorful cabanas shaped like birdcages are scattered around the infinity pool on the fifth floor, where you'll also find the fitness center and spa. The Orchid Club lounge, for club-level guests, has 360-degree views of the city. Although the suites as well as the rooms both run small, clever sliding doors and large hanging mirrors prevent them from feeling cramped.
