Lounge

Lounges are exclusive areas that feature multiple conveniences usually found throughout cities, all within an efficiently compact space. They may only be accessed by players in possession of a pass item; in most cases, these can only be obtained via the Gem Store or Black Lion Statuettes, though there are some exceptions. See the table below for details.

Notes

• Double-clicking on a pass will teleport your character to its lounge; passes can thus be used as a quick means of transport to the zone in which the lounge is located.
• Characters will remain within the lounge upon relogging so long as the pass is unexpired and still in their inventory (this includes Shared Inventory Slots, but not the bank.)
