Hotel Features. Blue color schemes predominate throughout this stylish hotel. The lobby is filled with mod vinyl furnishings, Andy Warhol prints and registration podiums infused with colored lights. The Helix Lounge features a semi-circular metallic bar, a volcano-shaped settee, lighted ottomans and a patent-leather-lined alcove hidden by gauzy drapes. Chefs serve American fare and host summertime grill-out parties on the outdoor patio. The hotel hosts a daily complimentary "bubbly hour" with wine and Champagne. A business center contains one computer station, and wireless Internet access is complimentary in public areas. A CD library is located in the lobby area. A complimentary, 24-hour fitness room contains television-mounted cardiovascular machines and weight machines.

Beds are draped beneath premium linens and faux-fur throws. Flat-screen televisions and CD players are mounted on swivels. Rooms include minibars and coffeemakers.

Expert Tip. Should you place a telephoned request to the front desk during your stay, don't be surprised if Austin Powers' voice responds to your call. Groovy, baby.
