10/10 highly recommended. It’s my go to since it was Hotel Zero. It’s my all time favorite. I only missed staying here and stay somewhere else for 2 reason, they are full or the price is too much. I love the new looks, very calm, clean, comfortable. Staff is always courteous and informative. The new phone magnet stand is absolutely smart!

The hotel was lovely and the staff was wonderful. The decor in the lobby, on the rooftop deck and in the rooms is great. However, advertising as a riverfront hotel is somewhat deceptive as you can barely see the river and most of it is dried up :( This is a city hotel, but a lovely one.
