In a salmon-color mansion dating back more than a century, this elegantly appointed hotel is perhaps the city's loveliest lodging. Black-and-white marble floors and perfectly polished railings greet you as you stroll through the antiques-filled lobby. Up the wooden staircase are guest rooms with hand-carved furniture. Those in front have more character, whereas the more modern rooms in the newer section curve around a graceful fountain. Known for its impeccable service, the hotel sees repeat business year after year. The original art that adorns the dining room is for sale, so you may want to take home a souvenir of your stay.
