Business travelers benefit from flexible meeting spaces decorated with three-tiered Murano glass chandeliers and the Solarium Lounge with access to the Serenity Garden. Twelve accessible rooms provide mobility, visual, and hearing accommodations.

Pros

Seasonal cuisine features locally sourced ingredients and artful techniques

Floor-to-ceiling windows in the lounge provide natural light throughout

Rooftop terrace offers poolside dining options

Half-price wine bottles available during Wine Down Wednesdays

Cons

Business-focused atmosphere during weekdays may not suit leisure travelers

Some attractions require transportation, with The National Museum of Toys and Miniatures 1.5 miles away

“Located in the Country Club Plaza, this hotel strikes me as an upscale retreat with a focus on guest experience. I particularly note the rooftop dining and pool area, which seems to offer impressive city views. The shuttle service and pet-friendly approach add practical value in a stylish setting.”
