"Those familiar with the Thompson’s downtown hotels—the Beekman and Gild Hall—know to expect a certain level of detail and style. Reborn under the Hyatt lifestyle hotel brand in November 2021, this uptown hotel plays on its location on the same block as Carnegie Hall with music-centric decor. For example, throughout the 587 rooms designed by Stonehill Taylor, you’ll find framed photographs of guitars and brass instruments on the walls. The rest of the decor veers toward midcentury with navy leather headboards against ribbed wooden walls, velvet couches, and Tivoli radios. Though Per Se and Nobu are just a short walk away, you’ll want to try something casual at Burger Joint, the hole-in-the-wall restaurant that’s remained untouched since the hotel used to be Le Parker Meridien." - Lyndsey Matthews
