"The Library Hotel is the definition of a cozy retreat. It opened in 2000 with a library theme that attracts both book-loving guests and those simply looking for a tranquil, private-club–style stay—minus the pretension. It is part of the boutique Library Hotel Collection, which includes the Hotel Giraffe, Casablanca Hotel, and Hotel Elysée in Manhattan, as well as two international venues. Each of the 60 guest rooms features art and books based on a specific topic, inspired by the Dewey Decimal Classification. The hotel has more than 6,000 hardcover books spread between the rooms and public spaces, such as the lobby and Reading Room, where coffee, tea, sodas, and snacks are available all day. There are also indoor and outdoor rooftop areas for lounging with a good book, and at 4 p.m. the space morphs into the Bookmarks lounge, serving literary-inspired cocktails like Gone with the Gin and Tequila Mockingbird. Downstairs is the hotel’s American restaurant, Madison & Vine, open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and it also provides room service. While there is no on-site gym, all guests receive access to Blink Fitness." - Jennifer Flowers
