Hotel Zero Degrees

Considering its ultra-modern vibe, you'd never guess this spot was once a YMCA. Thanks to a $5 million transformation, it's now a New York-style boutique hotel, done up in a bold palette of dark wood, red and steel-gray furnishings, and pop art. The 97 rooms are supremely comfortable, and the cozy lobby is a lovely place to enjoy the complimentary breakfast in front of a fire.
