A renovation has this never- boring hotel a happening spot all over again. While the hallways are still dark and sultry, a complete re-do of the lobby has given this space an undeniable sizzle. A sizzle of a fireplace that is. It delivers better arrangements for seating by dividing the famed sunken area of the runway-eque corridor into more private areas, now filled with a cast bronze patina and African accents. Also making use of a previously awkward space is an added bar area up front for the more socially inclined after- work set. Working fireplaces in the rooms with their Murphy Bed-eque set ups and posh round spa tubs now have a whole new clientele drawn to this chic hotel courtesy of the new look.
