The St Regis has BOTH breakfast and evening drinks in the top-floor lounge too.
We went to check out the spread for breakie in the top floor lounge and it was quite a decent selection. However since our room rate included breakie, the staff told us to try the selection in the lobby restaurnat, as it was much wider. And it certainly was!! There were about 50 different options, including a full Chinese buffet, Japanese buffet, omelette station, steak, lamb chops etc. And a huge selection of cakes, pastries, cheeses, breads etc. And about 4 types of freshly pressed juice. I had Eggs Benedict made to order and they were absolutely delicious. Better than the Ritz in Paris!
The spread in the lounge in the evening was quite acceptable. About 3-4 sweet options, a couple of cold savouries and 2 hot options. They served a decent Cabernet Sauvignon too.
