Eastern girl coming for a short visit.

Arriving near Christmas...then heading further west....

What%26#39;s a good hotel (don%26#39;t like the Econo chain)? Anyone been to Biltmore?

Where%26#39;s best shopping (general mall stuff)

Best coffee?

What MUST I see before leaving?

Marriott Courtyard Downtown is a great hotel in the downtown area. You might also try it%26#39;s sister the Residence Inn, both are JQ Hammons hotels so very nice, but on the slightly pricey side. Like $89 a night would be a good price. Havent%26#39; stayed at the Biltmore though.

Best shopping would be Penn Square Mall (PENN %26amp; NW EXPRESSWAY) and Quail Springs Mall (MEMORIAL %26amp; PENN), both extremely busy at christmas time, so be prepared for long lines.

Best coffee that isn%26#39;t a chain, like Starbucks, is Java Daves. They make an awesome funky monkey (cold coffee drink)

Must see is the Oklahoma City National Memorial outside at night with the chairs all lit up. Most beautiful. The museum is really good too, if you have time. Cowboy hall of fame is a little over-rated unless you like western art. The OKC Art Museum is pretty good but not a must see.
