The Yoga Room embodies the core ideal of this
stylish and homey place, as everything is designed just up to the point: your health and well-
being.
With a friendly green and glass front against the mosaic wall,
the small room welcomed me warmly. As I stepped inside and looked around, I
sensed a philosophy of “vinyasa” in the decor—“vi”, in a special way, “nyasa”, to place—
everything is placed in a special way; in one corner, a wooden table chest held a copper
brown hand wash, with a large wooden Buddist embossment hanging over it, inviting a deep breath in the special ambiance of religious tranquility. This
small world made me feel like I was in an exotic and
authentic Indian lounge.
I was asked to take off my shoes at the entrance, because everyone should have the right
to enjoy themselves without any binding from the outside—both physical and psychological.
