great place for a convention
I was here May 2011 for a convention. My school stayed here so I think we got a good rate, it was all paid for by my university. It was nice staying here with the actual convention being inside the hotel, that made things easier. It is a GORGEOUS hotel and it is right by all the tourist things. There is a Starbucks in the basement of the hotel, which was nice to have so close! My only slight annoyance was that there was no WiFi, you had to plug your computer into the telephone cord to get Internet (and Internet at an expensive hotel is not cheap!). They said that they cannot have WiFi for the hotel because the building was too old to accommodate for it. Otherwise, one of the nicest hotels I have stayed in!
