The Lenox Hotel Review

The central location makes the Lenox popular with business travelers, and its relatively small size and accommodating staff make it a welcome alternative to the huge convention hotels that dominate this neighborhood. As a rule, though, those larger competitors have more extensive fitness facilities. The spacious, luxurious guest rooms have high ceilings and are large enough to contain sitting areas and Aeron chairs. Custom-designed wood furnishings and marble bathrooms add to the anything-but-generic vibe; rooms on the top two floors of the 11-story building enjoy excellent views. My favorites are the 12 corner units with wood-burning fireplaces. The Lenox was one of the first hotels in the country to embrace eco-consciousness, and management's commitment to shrinking the hotel's footprint is truly impressive.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; pub; babysitting; concierge; small exercise room; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
