About Cove.

Unlike other hotels, we're not into labels. We're into living. Cove offers guests a space like no other – carefully designed, uncluttered apartments that allow each person to make the most of every moment, and every mode. These day's it's not about clocking in then logging off, presenting then partying, or even weekdays and weekends. It's about undivided, seamless living. Flowing from one mode to the next without interrupting. Working comfortably. Living efficiently. Blurring borders and being together, but with enough space for our guests. Work/life balance has changed, and we're here for the future.
