Loved hotel - parking fee not so much
Hubby and I ran across an attractive online rate for a one-night stay at the Anatole and found everything about the hotel to be top-notch. The Asian decor theme was soothing, exotic and very tasteful. The large open spaces lend well to conventions. The Media Bar was much more enjoyable than the usual sports bar -- lots of tv screens around the room, but the noise level was still conducive to carrying on conversation at normal speech levels. Our room was an interior room with a window opening onto an interior corridor instead of outside -- very nicely decorated and everything in excellent condition. We were a little surprised that self-parking in an open parking lot was $18 for the night -- seemed excessive for the experience of finding bird poop on the car the next morning.
