At Mi Xun, there is a range of private, indulgent spa treatments on offer, and an adjoining teahouse with a light menu of healthy food and drinks.

The hotel houses an ever-changing collection of contemporary art, courtesy of eight local and international artists at the ‘A Thousand Plateaus’ gallery, and their work also adorns the walls throughout the hotel.
There is also a wellness centre comprising of a state-of-the-art gym and spa with a 25-metre pool, steam room, sauna and 11 luxury treatment suites and two VIP experience suites.
