Overview
Stately Omaha digs in a landmark Italianate building, with a beautiful central courtyard, 145 rooms and daily wine hour
The Lowdown
In Omaha’s former Acquila Court Building, the Magnolia hotel offers a comfy downtown base in a grand setting. Beyond the elegant facade, said to be inspired by a Florentine palace, interiors have a stately style with exposed brick walls, barrel ceilings and intricate ironwork accents. Guestrooms are spread over three floors and have a simple look in chocolate, white and duck-egg blue shades. All overlook the cityscape or charming central courtyard (popular for outdoor weddings) and come outfitted with flatscreen TVs, work desks and coffee makers. Modern bathrooms have walk-in or over-tub showers, single vanities and own-brand toiletries. The dining experience at Magnolia Omaha begins with a free breakfast buffet (hot and continental) in the Lounge and includes international favorites for lunch and dinner, plus room service (from 6 am-11 pm) and a pre-bedtime spread of cookies and milk. A wine reception is held in the Lounge from 5:30 pm-6:30 pm daily, and there’s a street level terrace for alfresco dining.
