Scene
Grand villa-like grounds and lobby; hotel popular with business people and families
Inlaid marble floors, a large chandelier, and wrought-iron decorative gates set against the wall all conjure the festive splendor of Florida in the ‘80s. Potted indoor palms add to a villa-like atmosphere comprised of neutral hues and earth tones. The overall effect is elegant. The tiny pool is set among palm trees in gardens surrounded by a four-story pink stucco building, which houses the Hilton’s guest rooms. Business clients and families alike are frequent visitors here.
Location
Five-minute walk to a luxury mall; 15-minute walk or free shuttle to the beach
Free
shuttle service is offered to the beach. Otherwise the walk requires strolling
along the Tamiami Trail, a highway-like road that passes right next to the
hotel. The property is also a five-minute walk from the upscale
outdoor pedestrian mall Waterside Shops, which houses designer stores like
Gucci and Salvatore Ferragamo alongside the Gap, Starbucks, and a few
restaurants. The hotel is a 15-minute drive from Naples Municipal Airport,
while getting to Southwest Florida International Airport is a 40-minute drive
north.
Rooms
Fairly standard chain hotel rooms with comfortable beds

small pool to one side of the property has a mini-waterfall and tiny adjacent
