"The Whitby Hotel, located in Midtown Manhattan, features vibrant, art-filled interiors and a warm, inviting atmosphere, blending luxury with the iconic design of Firmdale founder Kit Kemp." - MICHELIN Guide
"NYC’s second import by British brand Firmdale Hotels, is designer Kit Kemp at her playful best. She has created a place that's the antithesis of the staid, neutral-heavy luxury options in the area. It's like an English summer garden come to life in hotel form. A welcome addition to Midtown, it’s that rare find that is both family-friendly and sophisticated. A gorgeous hotel two blocks from Central Park with an excellent restaurant and afternoon tea, the Whitby is worth every cent."
"For an art-centric trip to the city that includes hours upon hours spent at the MoMA (a short walk away) and the Met, you can't do much better than the Whitby. A vivid, artsy, design-forward aesthetic characterizes the interiors—and whip out your smartphone because they photograph really, really well. The hotel even brings the art inside its doors. The Firmdale Art Tour and Workshop takes place this year on December 12, 2022, and includes a tour of the hotel's own art collection, a complimentary glass of wine, and an exclusive drawing class."
