What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The 1920s Osler Building in Midtown OKC got a second life as this Autograph Collection property, its period structure: arched windows, original brickwork, preserved beneath a contemporary fit-out.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Midtown surrounds the hotel along Walker Avenue, and the local streetcar runs directly to downtown and Bricktown.
The rooms
Rooms have tall leather headboards and granite bathrooms, with oversized windows looking out over Midtown and Heritage Hills.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Woven loungers and festoon lights border the seasonal courtyard pool, with Devon Tower rising on the downtown skyline.
O Bar
Cocktails and small plates are served on the seventh floor, where a glass-railed terrace looks straight out across downtown.
At the table
The Chalkboard Kitchen + Bar serves bistro dishes with Midwestern influences across a paneled dining room and an umbrella-shaded courtyard patio.
How it began
Local doctors constructed the building in 1928 as medical offices, naming it after Sir William Osler, the pioneer of medical residencies.
