Opened during the Jazz Age, this downtown hotel is a restored art deco beauty that pays homage to the property's history. Guest rooms offer plush comforts (those facing south are a tad larger) and there's full concierge service. Complimentary midnight snacks, in-room espresso makers and a 24-hour fitness center seal the deal.
