Checked in: Hotel Elysee, 60 East 54th Street, NYC.
A traditional New York Hotel in the heart of the city. Think Home Alone, Lost In New York; that’s what it reminded us of, much to our pleasure. It took us back to our youth and how wee always imagined a hotel to resemble in the city that never sleeps.
PAUSE checked in to a spacious twin room, with large balcony, overlooking the bustling streets.
Surprisingly super quiet rooms meant we had the best night sleep in literally the comfiest beds possible. Imagine sleeping on a cloud!
Complete with complimentary toiletries, the room had everything we needed for a city stay, including a bottle of red wine (on the house!).
With a lounge, open all day for guests to relax and enjoy a hot drink and biscuit, the hotel gave off a very welcome air. And with the staff going over and above to accommodate us, we did not want to leave!
Best bits:
- Walking distance to the best fashion stores in the world; with Dior, Chanel and Miu Miu on the doorstep, we knew were rolling with the elite
- Complimentary continental breakfast, with teas and coffees throughout the day
- Free wifi
- Friendly staff, who would go over and above to recommend hotspots
