This hotel is in a great location - right next to the Hancock building, close to shopping and just a few blocks from the red line. The bed was extremely comfortable and the room was nicely appointed, although the carpet was a bit shaggy and dingy. I stayed at the Raffaello in May and the weather was cold and hot. The hotel controls whether the heat or AC is on, so be mindful that the thermostat may only blow out hot air if you're there during a random hot day and need AC. All of the staff were friendly, but not knowledgeable of hours and menus when asking about local places for a late bite to eat. I recommend the Southern Cut restaurant across the street if you want a late bite. Everything we ordered was incredible*. See my Southern Cut Barbecue review next.
There is a donut shop downstairs and a bar that I did not get to see on the 18th floor. In the afternoon there is infused water in the lobby.
I hope to stay here again soon!
