Frommer's "One of the busy airport area's more unique properties is this 11-story boutique hotel that takes pride in offering quirky perks such as in-room lava lamps, pet fish, rubber duckies, and art kits." Full review
Concierge "This boutique hotel is drenched in over-the-top decor: red leopard-print pony-skin walls, purple lava lamps, and live (!) goldfish in the bedrooms."
Star Service "In what would be an odd development in any city, this is a hip boutique-style hotel situated by the airport." Full review

Views to choose: pool over parking lot.

Frommer's "Built in 1900 and housed in the Romanesque Gothic former Union Station railway terminal, this hotel is a grandly restored National Historic Landmark." Full review

Be sure to take advantage of the hotel's valet parking.
Concierge "It's worth staying at Union Station for the architecture alone... but the location is nothing to scoff at either."
i
Avoid lower-level rooms with windows facing the parking lot: Noise from the valet station and beer hall next door is likely to rouse light sleepers.
