This 25-story twin-tower hotel next to the convention center has everything a businessperson—or leisure traveler—could want. As a major site for conventions, the complex can be hectic and impersonal, and the hallways can be noisy. Lending some tranquillity are the lagoon-style pools nestled between cascading waterfalls. The standard rooms are smallish, but pay a bit extra for a room with a balcony overlooking the bay and you can have a serene, sparkling world spread out before you. The upscale Hawaiian fusion restaurant Roy's is worth a visit. Seaport Village and a trolley station are nearby. Pros: Great location, many amenities, good restaurant. Cons: Small rooms, very busy.
