Call this the Club Tropicana of the 21st Century, where the tide is high and the party, higher. Fashioned for those who measure the day in beats-per-minute, The Pioneer Suite is a tech Mecca for DJs and music producers alike, what with two Pioneer CDJ 2000 decks, a DJM 2000 mixer, an amplifier, eight speakers and a subwoofer to play with before taking the party to the indoor jacuzzi or grand canopy bed. Good thing the room is soundproof!

Corinthia Hotel London

The Musician’s Penthouse is a carefully orchestrated suite with fittings that any cultured and musically inclined guest will appreciate. A refurbished Steinway Model O piano stands at the centre of the two-storey space, surrounded by plush furnishings, artworks with a musical slant, and vintage chandeliers. The room also comes equipped with a state-of-the-art traditional record deck to enjoy soothing tunes while savouring some wine from a private collection—but not before dinner on the connecting roof terrace with a breath-taking view of the city.
