The Surrey, New York
More photosExpert reviews
“Having an outpost of Casa Tua, the swank restaurant and members’ club with locations in Miami and Aspen, has certainly drawn the in-crowd, who are lining up for the phenomenal hand-cut pappardelle. It also helps that the property feels like an extension of the neighborhood’s stately townhouses. Stepping into the lobby, there’s a purely New York feeling: chic, in-the-know, and quietly powerful.”
“Originally built in New York City in 1926, The Surrey is a historic Art Deco gem that was once a residential hotel frequented by celebrities like JFK and Bette Davis. It has since been completely renovated and now operates under the management of the global luxury hotel group Corinthia.”

All you need to know
If you’re looking to stay somewhere that feels both quintessentially New York and quietly luxurious, The Surrey on the Upper East Side is a pretty solid pick.
Nestled right near Central Park, the hotel gives off that leafy-city vibe where you can wander into green space one minute, then be sipping something fancy in a plush hotel lounge the next. The Surrey has that mix of Manhattan glamour with something a bit softer, more residential, than the super high-rise downtown hotels.
Inside, you’ll find 70 rooms and 30 suites designed with warm materials and thoughtful touches by designer Martin Brudnizki. There’s also a spa tucked away on the second floor, complete with a steam room, sauna and an outdoor terrace, a nice little escape after a full day of NYC sightseeing.
For someone who wants to experience the city without being in the chaos of Midtown, while still having easy access to restaurants, galleries and parks, The Surrey hits that sweet spot.

Refinery Hotel Manhattan, New York
New York Times + 2 more“With its hat factory history, good location, upscale finish and an eager-to-please staff, the Refinery is a definite draw and is an ideal place for travelers who are looking to be near the city’s major tourist attractions. It lacked the polish of other well-established luxury properties in town, but that may improve over time, and its charm more than makes up for it.”
