Before you swing open the polished wooden doors to Hotel Magnolia, be sure to look up: the stone façade of this 1920s grande dame is part of its (considerable) charm.
 "It is considered a fine example of fusing old with new, from the old-school facade that is later glassed in, to interior remodels with marble staircases...they offer a good restaurant onsite." Full review
Top choice

 "With contemporary furniture and design flourishes as well — the look is historically informed but far from nostalgic, and the loft-style rooms combine sleek clean lines with warm organic materials." Full review
