Oklahoma City Hotels
Almost smack-bang in the middle of the state, Oklahoma City is an attraction-packed stop off along Route 66. History lovers and country types are roped in by the area’s cowboy heritage and western charm, whilst those with more cosmopolitan tastes are lured by an eclectic choice of shopping, dining, and nightlife opportunities. There’s certainly no shortage of attractions either. From first-rate museums and theme park thrills, to big sporting hubs, cultural centers, and landmark monuments - there’s lots to stick around for before you get back on the road.
Things to see
A somber but worthy visit, Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum honors those affected by the infamous 1995 Oklahoma City Bombing. Occupying a peaceful green parcel on the former site of the Murrah Building, it features a variety of moving memorials, including the ‘Field of Empty Chairs’, which names each of the 168 victims who lost their lives. A contemporary 17-acre urban oasis, Myriad Botanical Gardens offers a slice of serenity right in the city’s downtown district. Its centerpiece is a striking 224-foot long cylindrical conservatory, which houses a variety of tropical plants and exotic flowers. Oklahoma City Zoo also features a botanical garden, and is a must-visit if you’ve got kids. Boasting a variety of picturesque habitats, you’ll see more than 1,800 animals, including gorillas, giraffes, elephants, and snow leopards. Basketball fans will want to make a beeline for the Chesapeake Energy Area. A vast events venue, it’s home to NBA’s Oklahoma City Thunder.

The luxury hotels in Oklahoma City come suited to a variety of tastes, whether you want to live it up in a contemporary multi-story tower, or enjoy a little classical elegance in a historical establishment. Stylish suites come laden with creature comforts, such as iPod docks and plush king-sized beds, whilst WiFi and cable TV are standard fixtures in most of the city’s digs.
