Scene
Modern boutique hotel with attractive public spaces for leisure travelers

There's mod seating, trendy art on walls, mirrored columns, and potted plans lined up along the high floor-to-ceiling windows. The business center is in an alcove, and has a stylish fixture and a funky, antique table covered with newspapers and magazines. An open staircase leads to mezzanine, where the breakfast room is located, which has sleek tables and a series of large drum pendants. The couples and other leisure travelers the hotel attracts don't spend much time milling around after breakfast, and hurry out to see the sights.
