This contemporary hotel enjoys a central location, with many restaurants, sights, and shops within a short walk of the main entrance of the hotel. Dating from 1989, it was constructed on the site of a previous hotel destroyed by fire. As if inspired by a much grander Hyatt, most of its rooms are built to open onto a central atrium. Only four rooms on each of the eight floors overlook the street (the sometimes rowdy -- at least, at night -- Rosenkrantzgate). The well-maintained rooms are cozy and contain neatly kept bathrooms with tub/showers. Expect relatively simple styling with none of the trappings of more expensive nearby competitors -- there's no health club, sauna, or full-fledged room service.
