Popular among business travelers and conventioneers, this urban hotel is also well-placed for visitors interested in exploring the nearby art and science museums and historic Boathouse Row. Amenity highlights: An impressive health club with a sky-lit indoor pool, hot tub, sauna, sundeck, and outdoor track is available free of charge to hotel guests. For an additional daily fee, visitors are granted access to the clubÆs racquetball, half-basketball, and rooftop tennis courts, aerobic and weight-training equipment, as well as classes in Pilates, Tang Soo Do, cross-training, step aerobics and yoga.

On weekends from spring through fall, the ôdrivesö come alive with bikers, runners, rollerbladers, walkers and picnickers.
