"Lido House, which opened in April of this year, has a crisp, nautical theme to its breezy lobby and 130 guest rooms. But it’s the private “cottages”—that word is used in the figurative sense, as these are actually massive, three-story townhouses—that are causing the biggest stir. Each 2- or 3-bedroom “cottage” features a unique layout by a different local designer, giving the spaces a homey, yet polished feel. Gleaming kitchens, mosaic tile showers, and rooftop decks (with fireplaces!) are just a few of the reasons you’ll want to upgrade your stay from a regular hotel room to these 1,500 square foot private residences." - Alex Schechter
