Overview

Rating

The Whitby Hotel is a must-stay for those who have an eye for and an interest in contemporary art and design detail. This hotel is located in the center of upper midtown Manhattan. It’s a tribute to arts and culture.

The Whitby Hotel consists of 86 rooms and suites. It has 16 floors and was decorated by Kit Kemp, who has been recognized for her contemporary English style design. The rooms all have windows that go from the floor to the ceiling. There are individual color themes in all of the rooms that are bold and beautiful. All of the bathrooms feature granite or marble countertops, double sinks, and a walk-in shower. The suites all have a separate bath.

Guests can dine at The Whitby Bar & Restaurant. It’s open all day, every day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. It also serves a wonderful, traditional Afternoon Tea throughout the day. Cocktails can be found at The Crosby Bar and The Whitby Bar as well. There are no shortage of restaurants in the surrounding area that are very easy to get to. The location of the hotel makes it easy for guests to walk or take a quick ride to anywhere they would like to go.

The Whitby Hotel is a stone’s throw from the iconic Central Park. Visitors can spend the day walking through this massive famed park for a refreshing day outside. There are also designer shops, lots of galleries or museums to visit, and Broadway only short walks away. The hotel boasts its own cinema that can seat 130 people, and a full gym.

There aren’t many hotels with better locations than this one. This is a true gem in the middle of Manhattan. The Whitby Hotel puts guests in the middle of all the energy that the great city of New York has to offer.
