Fodor's Review:
Step past the beaux arts facade of this 1905 gem and into the luxurious lobby with original art nouveau accents. Guest rooms, many with sweeping views down 5th Avenue, have a modern sensibility. The high-tech amenities are excellent, from a bedside console that controls the lighting, sound, and thermostat for the room to a TV mounted over the tub for bath-time viewing (in all but standard rooms). Thoughtful service extends to the complimentary selection of bottled waters in each room to same-day laundry service. The rooftop health club, indoor pool, and seasonal open-air bar -- which is something of a local hot spot -- all have dazzling views of Midtown.
