Hotel: City Club Hotel
Address: 55 W 44th St, New York, NY 10036
The City Club is a sleek luxury hotel in Midtown Manhattan, tucked neatly between the Times Square theater district and Fifth Avenue shopping.
The City Club appeals to sophisticated professionals and touring visitors who value style on-par with luxury. Guestrooms offer complimentary high-speed Internet access. The bathrooms, complete with cascading showers, are decked in rich chocolate-marble. Televisions with premium channels are masked by two-way mirrors, which lose their reflective opacity upon the click of a remote. Entertainment centers boast CD and DVD playback. Premium bedding with 320-thread-count linens permits sleep in a city alleged to have none. The City Club maintains an all-original art collection throughout the property.
The nine-story City Club offers 65 guestrooms, each featuring exquisite designs. The DB offers room service and dining for all meals. World renowned chef Daniel Boulud's newest restaurant, DB Bistro Moderne, reinvents the traditional European bistro as a contemporary culinary jewel box. The typically intimidating and cold expanse of marble and stone found all too often in New York has been supplanted for an intimate tchotchkie-laden sitting area with inviting sofas on a designer cork floor. The City Club's elegantly styled lobby was designed not to impress, but to entice on a diminutive scale. Notable designer Jeffrey Bilhuber, whose clients include David Bowie and Michael Douglas, orchestrated the hotel's interior.
Indeed, the City Club defies the boutique stereotype with aspirations of immortality. If there was ever a distinction to be made between the fleeting panache of boutique hotels and the timeless echelon of sophistication, the City Club makes it apparent. Hotel owner and self-described "eternal host" Jeff Klein avoids the tired cliché surrounding the b-word.
Though discrete and personable in every regard, the City Club is not a boutique. Emerging from the building's storied limestone facade, which once housed an exclusive social club, guests may venture via Town Car or foot to Manhattan's prestigious restaurants and venues.
