The unassuming exterior of the 10-story Hotel Madera gives little hint of the elegantly exotic escape that awaits you behind its doors. The atmosphere of this Home Away From Home is serene and calming; abstract, and intelligent. A modern mobile hangs from the ceiling, alive in the breeze. The registration desk is wrapped in luggage-stitched leather. A compact sitting area (where evening cocktails are mixed exclusively for guests) is furnished with modern, low-slung upholstered chairs and tasteful, artistic accents. Hotel Madera's 82 guestrooms and 12 specialty guestrooms feature animal-print accents to their mohair-padded headboards, silk pillows, velvet draperies, triple-sheeted beds, and quilted blankets. Each guestroom offers special amenities that will make you feel right at home. Guests receive a personalized turndown card with a home-related quote. Favorite snacks, a preferred pillow, or a plate of warm cookies is just a phone call away. Outside the stunningly comfortable guestrooms, guests can enjoy the Hosted Evening Wine Reception as well as cuisine prepared by the award-winning chef at Firefly American Bistro. Guests can live out their dream-home fantasies with complete in-room spa services and a complimentary yoga program. Fully equipped fitness and business centers are also ready for you to work and play. Standard amenities include A/C, coffeemaker, CD stereo, 2-line phone with voicemail, soundproof windows, evening turndown, convenience safe, hairdryer, mini bar, morning paper, umbrella, complimentary DSL and WiFi Internet, free "800" and credit card calls and cable TV. Services include valet laundry, complimentary overnight shoeshine, business center and valet parking. The pet-friendly hotel welcomes pets with a play toy and food and water dishes to take home with them when they leave. Walking services are also available. Hotel Madera also features Kimpton's Forgot-It, We've Got It program, where toiletry items that you may have left at home are complimentary provided for you.
