Its 59 chic, contemporary rooms sport elegant details like tufted armchairs and marble bathrooms, along with the modern amenities travelers expect in a four-pearl property, such as free Wi-Fi and flat-screen TVs. The restaurant could be the Metropolitans star feature, and it offers live music and discounts to hotel guests.
