Frommer's Review

This 7-year-old hotel, in the city's most famous building, the landmark 1922 headquarters of Magnolia (later Mobil) Oil -- known by its illuminated rooftop sign sculpture of Pegasus, the winged horse -- is now one of the most prized properties in the heart of downtown. Many of the building's original architectural details have been lovingly preserved. The hotel is refined and state-of-the-art, with a terrific fitness center and business facilities. Rooms are quite a bit larger than most and handsomely designed in contemporary style, with leather club chairs and sleek desks, and many are two-bedroom suites with full kitchens, perfect for families or longer business stays. The Magnolia Room, which occupies the entire second floor, is a great place to unwind: It's got a stocked library, billiards, TV, bar, and Wi-Fi, and a complimentary continental breakfast, and evening milk and cookies are served there. Shoppers will be happy to discover that the original Neiman Marcus is just down the block.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; full fitness center; sauna; concierge; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; same-day laundry service/dry cleaning
