The house
HiltonCurved travertine downtown hotel
Curving plaster walls and polished travertine define the public spaces, where seamless contours soften the downtown pace.
What it’s good at
Notable
Sid Lee Architecture shaped the colonnade and sculpted custom lighting installations.
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
The lobby area provides a breath of fresh air from the hectic atmosphere of downtown, and a setting filled with black walnut woods from Italy and opulent white Turkish travertine creates a soothing, luxurious ethos.
“Take, for instance, the runway-ready lobby area, which is done up with curving Venetian plastered walls and black walnut wood, conversation-starting accents like upside-down-U-shaped light fixtures, and a mirrored-bronze, suspended fireplace chimney.”
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
The front doors open onto the Golden Square Mile, with high-end shopping along Rue Sainte-Catherine just steps away.
The rooms
Bedrooms are laid with pale herringbone floors and soft velvet seating. Select suites add their own private saunas.
The spa
The gym
The top-floor gym has TechnoGym equipment, lululemon mats, and a Kala Therapy red light machine.
YAMA Restaurant
Chef Antonio Park oversees the Nikkei menu, served along curved tweed banquettes beside a glowing wine display.
At the table
Café Bazin bakes fresh morning croissants and brews espresso. Across the lobby, the island bar pours sake and craft cocktails.
How it began
The midcentury building originally housed corporate oil offices in the 1950s before its conversion into a hotel in 1990.
