City Club Hotel

Audrey — Thu, 25 Mar 2010 03:51:52 +0000

This small luxury hotel combines the height of luxury with history. Located near Times

Square and the theater district, it was originally a political club, built in 1904. In 1939, it was

sold and had other lives as an office building. In 1999, Jeff Klein bought the building and

opened his hotel in 2001. The rooms have been restored back to the “gentleman’s club”

feeling and the original name has been restored.

There are 9 floors and 65 guestrooms, designed in New American Classical style by Jeffery

Bilhuber. The room sizes go from “petite”, which is a 195 sq. foot room at a relatively

affordable price, to the “Grand Duplex Suite”, which is the height of luxury, with a price tag

to match. Guests are pampered with details such as two telephone lines in each room and

bathroom, DVD players and libraries, and in-room safe deposit boxes.

Award-winning chef, Daniel Boulud, runs the DB Bistro Moderne which serves

French-American cuisine. The bistro has two dining rooms: one is casual and vibrant, and

the other is subdued and intimate.

This New York hotel is definitely a favoritie of who’s who in New York. But you won’t see

celebrities posing in the lobby. Jeff Klein says that his hotel is for private and

discriminating people, and effort has been made to make it feel like you have come home.

For a whopping $7,000 a night you too can enjoy some history in the presidential suite. Many of the pieces that furnish the 4 bedroom suite on the 35th floor were donated by past presidents.

If the presidential history doesn’t thrill you, maybe the eateries will. They offer many dining choices inside the hotel. Peacock Alley is an upscale fish and seafood restaurant by day/night with an amazing Sunday brunch, located right inside the main lobby. Chic.tv describes it as the “Most Luxurious Brunch in New York”. Diners can enjoy their brunch while listening to live music. For all you steak lovers out there, Bull and Bear is the place for you. With their ginormous portions of USDA Certified Angus Beef® Prime, (first restaurant on the East Coast to serve) you will definitely leave with a full stomach. Don’t forget to stop by the bar before you leave and taste one of their signature drinks like the “Bull and Bear”. Easy enough to remember, right?

With so many choices to dine at, great walking distances to popular tourist attractions and world class history; how can you go wrong? One obvious tip: don’t forget your camera!
