"A sleek, midcentury-inspired retreat exuding bossa nova style, with a fashion-conscious lobby, live bossa nova and jazz at the piano bar Baretto, and a celebrated Italian dining program: an elegant main restaurant known for modern takes on classic dishes and a homier Nonna Ruggero trattoria. The property’s roughly 60 rooms are bright with retro touches, and upstairs amenities include a top-notch spa, fitness center, yoga, and a heated pool—an ideal blend of stylish nightlife, refined dining, and restorative facilities." - Laura Dannen Redman
