An oak-paneled Edwardian lobby, velvet seating, and a resident cat maintain the storied atmosphere of Manhattan's classic literary salon.
What it’s good at

Manhattan's oldest continuously operating hotel preserves century-old rituals, from tuxedo-clad table service to the resident lobby cat.

Archival Al Hirschfeld theatrical caricatures and literary cocktails celebrate deep generational ties to Broadway and Manhattan publishing.
What they say
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
Today, a glamorous redesign by Alexandra Champalimaud has us convinced that the next great American novel could be penned on its premises.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along historic Club Row on West 44th Street, the address puts Broadway theaters and Bryant Park a short stroll away.
The rooms
Rooms pair tufted headboards and Art Deco accents with framed illustration prints and walk-in glass showers.
The gym
- Gym
- 24-hour fitness center equipped with cardio machines, strength equipment, and free weights.
Dogs stay too.
The Blue Bar Restaurant & Lounge
Original Al Hirschfeld drawings line the walls, and the curved marble bar pours classic martinis under blue lighting.
At the table
Tables and leather booths sit among Corinthian columns in the lobby lounge, which serves breakfast and all-day dining.
How it began
In 1919, Dorothy Parker and the Round Table wits gathered here daily, later pooling poker stakes to help launch The New Yorker.
