Plenty of smaller conference rooms you can duck into and shut the door if you need some space.

Golden Tee machine.

For those of us not in NYC/London, visting concierge car detailing/gas-up/oil change service (does dry cleaning pick-ups too).

Visting masseuse for quarter close/reporting season.

Visting sommelier / bartender to serve drinks for Friday happy hour (keep the above mentioned beer fridge too of course. We're civilized damnit.)

If the building has a gym (what doesn't these days?), once or twice a week on-site group trainer / yoga instructor.

You have #1 in HP Redwood City. Was there visiting a friend. While we was working I was playing Dota 2 in a small conference room. 

Shall I say it was a good game. 

Persistency is Key
 

I've had all of the above along with everything Isiaah mentioned in the OP (ok, the shower was the building's gym shower, but I'll still count it) in a single office before. So Isiaah's baller ass offices do exist (unlike meaningful SEC regulations. Hey-oohhhh!)

are you describing an office or a whole apartment

Super nice offices are like a nice apartment.

I once had a meeting with the #2 guy at IBM at the CHQ in Armonk, NY and his office had his own personal conference room. He entered the room from his other personal office we didn’t get to see. Pretty baller.

I became close friends with his executive assistant after that meeting. She is a rising star at the company.
