"A painstakingly restored 1912 neoclassical building (the former Jarmulowsky Bank) turned elegant Lower East Side hotel that pairs heritage architecture with a celebrated culinary program led by chef Ignacio Mattos—Corner Bar and the Swan Room cocktail lounge—and 113 rooms (with 12 convertible into two-bedroom suites), several with brick-paved terraces and city views, furnished with a curated mix of antiques and vintage modern pieces." - Jennifer Flowers
