An intimate 50-room hotel in Manhattan's Upper East Side. Close to Central Park, museums, exclusive boutique shopping and great restaurants, this is good location to be. The rooms have been beautifully restored and are elegantly decorated and very comfortable with Eygptian towels, slippers and bathrobes and nice Avdea bath products. There's a lovely sitting room downstairs where the sunlight floods in so its a great place to sit and relax, and there's also a library. The restaurant serves a full European breakfast in the lounge and wine and cheese in the afternoon, which is delicious! The staff are friendly and efficient and don't mind helping you out with any requests you may have. Wireless Internet is available throughout the hotel.

The staff was extremely nice. After feeling lucky to get a room on the first floor, we quickly realized you could hear EVERYTHING, so we asked to be moved. Rooms were very small, but at least quieter on the upper floors.
