The guest rooms and suites take advantage of the stunning city views, including of Boyd Park at the Columbia Art Museum, Arsenal Hall, and Historic Main street, with expansive windows generously placed to allow natural light to fill the rooms and suites.

Artwork and furnishings complement the focus on the area’s traditional roots with contemporary materials and amenities. The rooms and suites feature neutral color palettes with pops of rich blue and grey hues, juxtaposing natural wood and metal materials with contemporary designs and thoughtfully curated artistic focal points.

Additionally, each luxurious guest room is designed for optimal rest and productivity with architectural framing, contrasting finishes and thoughtful solutions to enhance a guest’s stay, such as:
  • Convenient wall outlets, lamp outlets and nightstands outfitted with USB ports for multiple electronic devices
  • Luxurious bedding with cotton-rich linens and fluffy pillows
