"Great for large groups who want to stick together.... My favorite part of the complex is the indoor pool, which overlooks the river and a dock full of old seafaring vessels." Full review

Art Deco-themed rooms offer stupendous views of the riverfront or city, but traffic noise does percolate up, so choose a river-view room if quiet is important to you.
