Walk into the lobby of the I Hotel and you know you’ve chosen the right accommodations.  The clean lines of the contemporary lobby furniture soften and invite you to sit and relax awhile, with throw pillows on the sofas, a flickering fire and a chess board tempting you to play.

Luxury continues in the 128 guest rooms, including two suites, with 32” flat screen LCD TVs, granite bathroom countertops, Italian leather headboards and footboards with pillow-top mattresses, and two comfy terry robes.

The I Café features Starbucks coffee, an assortment of juices, yogurt, pastries and panini.  I ordered the ham, egg and cheese panini, swapping out provolone cheese for the Swiss.  The crispy ridged toasted bread contrasting with the warm tender egg, flavorful ham, and gooey cheese made a delightful light breakfast sandwich.
