M Social Hotel Overview

M Social Hotel is designed to be a landmark hotel for Millennium Hotels and Resorts. The project is being developed in conjunction with Lakeside Apartments along with a public park and lake that connect the two projects. The design of the hotel offers a visually striking refuge for travellers. The massing steps down towards the East for improved views, while allowing natural light into the core of the hotel.

The first floor offers a restaurant, bar, lounge, pre-function space, multiple meeting rooms, two ballrooms, commercial kitchen, and a centrally located courtyard that connects the common areas. The hotel provides 263 keys and, in addition to the first floor, offers visitors a fitness centre and outdoor lounge. Sitting close to the 101 Freeway, the hotel will serve as a convenient option for travellers arriving from nearby San Jose Mineta International Airport.

M Social is a cocoon of experiences. Diversity is celebrated, bland is banned. It's a safe space where guests can meet like-minded individuals and jump into a community away from home.
