The hotel has a conference center with 13 meeting rooms that can accommodate 500 people. The spacious lobby has marble-tile flooring, stone walls, and brass chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling. A marble double stairway leads to an expansive second floor lobby with a 20-foot ceiling. A large, sweeping staircase with brass handrails leads to an impressive, rotunda-like space on the second floor, where tall columns frame brown-accented marble floors.

“Service stands out at this property, and the curated design creates a distinct environment. While the layout is a little unconventional-check-in is on the 17th floor-the overall experience aims for a high standard. I think the hotel is best suited for those who prioritize attentive service and stylish surroundings.”
