Hippest of the Hip: The Bryant Park Hotel, NYC

How hip is hip? How cool is cool? If the Website for New York’s Bryant Park Hotel is anywhere near as good as the hotel itself, you owe it to yourself to check it out. For one, it was chosen for Conde Nast Traveler’s 2004 Gold List as one of the “World’s Best Places to Stay.”

For two, its site says: “Drawing the likes of models, designers, fashionistas and industry players from all over the world, the Bryant Park Hotel has become somewhat of a fashion symbol itself…”

And three, you can choose six types of rooms with cashmere blankets, marble baths with deep soaking tubs, and other self-pampering amenities. Each room resembles a dream New York loft.
