Carlton

Carlton Review

The lobby of the nearly 300-room Carlton has intimate sitting areas, each of which features the work of a different artist. The hotel's friendly service and casual atmosphere make it a favorite with tour groups, while business travelers enjoy its "i-rooms," with a computer workstation at a separate desk in the room. Fresh flowers and bowls of fruit can be found on every floor as well as in the rooms. Wake-up calls are accompanied by fresh juice and newspapers, and complimentary milk and cookies are delivered in the evening upon request. The rooms, with double-glazed windows that help muffle traffic noise, are designed in pleasant muted colors. The hotel also has a rooftop pool, a glass-enclosed gym, and gives guests the option of breakfast on a deck facing the beach.
