The Kimberly Hotel & Suites

Due in large part to its ability to be effortlessly lavish while still feeling comfortable enough to feel like you can kick your feet up, The Kimberly nails the entire "shabby chic" concept. The marble foyer is lined with elaborate chandeliers, and nearly every apartment with one or two bedrooms has a balcony. After a meal of modern Italian cuisine at Ferro's, a restaurant located below, proceed to the hotel's nightclub Nikki Midtown to party the night away.

It can be difficult to decide which of the many historic hotels in the Midtown East neighborhood to stay in. The Kimberly Hotel, which is tucked between Lexington and Third Avenues, ought to be on your list. This boutique hotel specializes in serving business travelers, but with first-rate amenities and a fantastic location, it's hard to match.

The Kimberly, one of the best 4-star hotels in New York City, is noted for having only luxury suite-style accommodations, which is one of its best features. It's uncommon in Manhattan, yet the Kimberly manages it. Hollywood and political nobility have enjoyed the luxury, despite the extravagant design (when you get to your room, there is an absolutely stunning bronze door knocker of an eagle) (Presidents Reagan and Carter are previous guests). You are enveloped in a cocoon of silky cotton comforters and feather down pillows as you climb into bed (you do legitimately have to climb or jump for how high the bed is raised). Take your morning coffee out on your private terrace to take in the Manhattan skyline as you wake up to face the city.
