The location of the Congress plaza hotel cannot be beat. However, I think describing the Congress as a boutique hotel feels disingenuous. Historic? Absolutely. Chic? Yes! Boutique? Well it feels too big and too corporate to be boutique. Would a boutique hotel print me a form and call me a mister? (Seriously, women book and pay for rooms these days! What gives with this?) Would a boutique motel play Fox News in the lobby? Overall our experience was great, but I doubt we will go back to this particular locale.
