M ore aesthetically pleasing than historically significant, this hotel rises out of a dead spot in the city's skyline between the downtown core and HemisFair Park. It's twin towers are done in the adobe color so popular in this city since its earliest buildings were erected three-hundred years ago. It is a new building, and because of that the surrounding area has not yet developed the full complement of shops and restaurants that follow along as the the Riverwalk meanders through the city. Still, at 38 stories it is an impressive feature in a city, and a region, not known for its great skyscrapers.
