Guild Wars 2 offers players several VIP Passes to premium areas within Tyria. These travel gizmos take the player to places where services are conveniently close together. Details and merchants available are listed here:

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Arborstone

This is a tour of this premium area - giving you a flavor of what this area looks and feels like. A commentary is presented after the timestamps.

While Arborstone is not considered a premium area, it is included here because one obtains a quick travel pass to Arborstone about half-way though the End of Dragons story.

This tour also looks at a fully upgraded Arborstone with all merchants and services unlocked and available.

Unique items:
The unique vendors and services found in Arborstone are those which debuted in End of Dragons - Jade Bot Research, Jade Workbench and a deep Fishing Hole appear here.

Commentary:
It's difficult to view Arborstone as a lounge and not a city because of the sheer size.

Final Score:
Arborstone "Lounge" rates a “C”. It's easy to downgrade Arborshone because of the sheer size of it or that the crafting stations are split up. However Arborstone does have some unique features like Club Canach or a repeatable skill challenge.

But the main selling point of Arborstone is the cost - FREE. Whereas the others cost 1,000 Gems - or approximately 300 gold - a no-cost lounge pass needs to be seriously considered.
