My wife and I just came down for a little 3 day trip for our 7th wedding anniversary and we love Market Pavilion Hotel. This is our 2nd stay, besides the old elegance with all amenities you could ask for, including a great Restaurant upon entering the hotel lobby and the Pavilion poolside rooftop bar on the 6th floor, the location gives you easy walking to any restaurant of your choosing or nighttime entertainment. Great place and we'll be back!

Great central location for dining and shopping. I loved the Christmas decorations. I also enjoyed the fresh coffee, pastries and fruit that they placed near the elevator each morning and cookies at night. The rooftop bar is also very nice! I would stay here again!

Fantastic hotel with pleasant, accommodating staff. Rooftop bar was beautiful at sunset! The location is A . Walkable to all things touristy. Very comfortable and cozy rooms. Only issue is the keys become demagnetized every time you walk out the door.
