Abode Time

Accommodation in any city hosting an international sporting event is usually difficult to come by. Unless, of course, you’re fortunate enough to feature on the exclusive guest list for the Omega House at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this August.

The residence, which will also function as a members-only club during the day, offers themed rooms dedicated to pillars of the brand. Sports timekeeping (Omega is the official timekeeper of Rio 2016), space exploration, ocean heritage, watchmaking innovation and ladies timepieces are all designated individual spaces.

The company you find yourself in should be equally as exciting. Omega ambassadors, including athletes competing in the games, will be calling Omega House home for the duration of the games as well.

The residence sits within Casa de Cultura Laura Alvim on the Rio’s famed Ipanema Beach.
