"Though its central location makes the Arctic Club ideal year-round, in summer you can stroll the waterfront, just five blocks from the hotel."

"This is one of Doubletree's most intriguing properties to date and the polar opposite of its 800-room sibling near the airport. It has an upscale twist that makes a great first impression." Full review

Be sure to sneak a peek inside the Northern Lights Dome Room, a grand hall with original frescoes, a stained-glass ceiling, and lots of ornate plasterwork and gilding.
