More about The Moderne
What to expect: Around the corner from the excitement of Broadway, this 34-room hotel occupies a slender Art Deco building of brick and brownstone. In the lobby, velvet curtains flank the entryway, lending a theatrical look. International business travelers and vacationers chat on curvy, celery-green chairs, and Mod-inspired patterns add zing to the walls.
Amenity highlights: The coffee room is wittily outfitted with custom-designed Mod chairs, a swoopy-backed couch, and Andy Warhol’s iconic portrait of Marilyn Monroe. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame street views. The room contains a 24-hour complimentary cappuccino machine and a computer with high-speed Internet access (surcharge).
Insider tip: For a change of pace, New Yorkers head downtown to walk or jog the Brooklyn Bridge. A wooden walkway, elevated above traffic, begins at City Hall Park. It’s about a mile each way, with spectacular skyline and river views. After burning off calories, exercisers can stop by the waterfront Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory, near the bridge on the Brooklyn side, for a cool treat.
