Located on 29th Street in New York, right in the center of Manhattan, the four-star Ace Hotel New York is housed in a historic building built in 1904, endowed with the spirit of the old city, its surroundings and its inhabitants. Twelve floors towering above the island house 260 compact hotel rooms. All are furnished with stylish vintage furniture, and some also boast breathtaking views of Broadway and the iconic Empire State Building, the signature skyscraper of the Big Apple.
Designed by New York architecture firm Roman & Williams, this hotel first opened its doors in 2009 and has since become a favorite of international travelers and hipsters from all over the world. Unique design is one of the key features of Ace Hotel. And no wonder, we are talking about New York – one of the most fashionable cities in the world. The hotel’s lobby tells the story of the turn-of-the-century building: the designers lovingly preserved a mural by artist and director Gary Smith, who lived in the building when the Breslin Hotel was located here.
The hotel rooms, on the contrary, are decorated in a utilitarian style, and some even look like you are renting an apartment with Amy Winehouse. This is hardly a drawback, because you should go to the Ace Hotel not for the luxury, but for the relaxed atmosphere (the loud deep-huas coming from the lobby does just that, you can be sure). However, all rooms at the Ace Hotel come with modern amenities, including a flat-screen TV, iPod docking station, refrigerator, fully stocked minibar, amenities in the bathroom and, of course, the most comfortable beds in the universe.
Another undoubted advantage of the Ace Hotel is its location. The hotel is located literally in the city center, so getting to the city’s main museums, shops, restaurants, theaters and parks is easy, both on foot and by any means of transport: from a bicycle and taxi to a helicopter. This is New York we’re talking about, isn’t it? Some of the great shops and restaurants are right in the building, so you’ll find everything you need without even going outside. New York, however, is one of the most amazing cities in the world, and an excursion is hardly worth refusing, especially since the hotel staff will easily find the best option for you. Start your exploration of the city with the Ace Hotel New York – you won’t regret it.
