"At the Hotel Groove, rooms come with colorful carpets and wooden paneling to elevate the offering beyond paint-by-numbers accommodation. A great pick for those who aim to spend minimal time in their rooms, exploring the city instead, but want comfortable—if predictable—digs for a good sleep at the end of a busy day. A boon to special-needs or older travelers who need extra space to move around, Hotel Groove’s sleeping quarters—beyond the entry-level Superior rooms—are reasonably large compared to other properties in this price range. Floor-to-ceiling windows create an even greater sense of grandeur, and the decor is functional but with a few pops of texture and color to distance the vibe from cookie-cutter hotel blocks. At the higher end are suites designed by noted Japanese artists, not to mention some traditional-style accommodations (tatami and futons), too. Coin laundry is a surprise perk for long-staying travelers. —Brandon Presser"
