The Whitby Hotel

Me alojé en una habitación doble por 4 noches con un amigo. La cama era cómoda, la decoración hermosa. Nuestra vista era terrible, pero no esperábamos mucho de la habitación del cuarto piso en un pequeño hotel en la ciudad. El té de la tarde estaba delicioso, al igual que el desayuno. Frederick, del equipo de conserjería, fue excelente al ayudarnos con una reserva difícil de antemano, ¡así que 10 puntos para él! Sin embargo, todo el personal fue excelente, y la ubicación era realmente buena, a 5 minutos a pie del MoMA, por ejemplo. ¡Definitivamente me quedaría allí de nuevo!

El atributo más definitorio del Whitby es su colorida decoración británica. Tiene una ubicación fantástica en una cuadra tranquila en Midtown Manhattan, con fácil acceso a lugares importantes como Central Park, MOMA, The Rock, Times Square y otros. Arte impresionante se muestra en todo el hotel... como 3 esculturas de mármol instaladas en el vestíbulo y hay una galaxia de telas elegantes, papel pintado elaborado y murales gigantes que lo hacen parecer una galería en sí mismo. Mi suite era bastante espaciosa y, una vez más, el espacio estaba equipado con una asombrosa variedad de esquemas y patrones de colores llamativos que combinaban bien entre sí. Se apreció una sala de estar y una estación de trabajo, y las ventanas del piso al techo brindaron una vista electrizante del horizonte de Manhattan. Hablando del techo, una cabecera peculiar y colorida casi llegaba a la parte superior del techo y había muchos electrodomésticos de alta tecnología de primer nivel. El baño era de mármol con lavabo doble, ducha y bañera. El restaurante y el bar están técnicamente unidos "en la cadera" y se denominan colectivamente "Whitby Bar & Restaurant". Mi inmersión en el menú reveló elementos que iban desde berenjenas ahumadas con queso de cabra hasta filete de res a la plancha. Mi selección de platos incluía: Sopa de calabaza especiada, halibut asado a la sartén y una panna cotta de vainilla francesa... todo extremadamente delicioso y sabroso. El bar era un lugar animado y conocido por sus creativas mezclas de cócteles. Como un guiño a la herencia británica del hotel, los huéspedes pueden participar del 'Té de la tarde' y, después de todo, el champán, las galletas y los bocadillos pueden quemar calorías en el gimnasio de Whitby. El hotel también alberga una sala de proyección y una acogedora sala de lectura. Vale la pena señalar que el servicio fue estelar. Por lo tanto, si desea dormir en un hotel con habitaciones cómodas, un ambiente elegante y una excelente ubicación.......... entonces pruebe el .....Whitby......Hotel en tecnicolor.

Stunning hotel, beautiful decor, superb location, staff were all fabulous. The most incredible bed, room was truly a joy to be in. We absolutely loved the Honesty Bar, a beautiful room that felt like a home from home, great place for drinks after a night on the town.

The gorgeous Whitby Hotel enjoys a prime address in the heart of NYC & and is a stones throw from the MOMA and just 2 blocks from Central park. This hotel is stacked with amenities like a Fitness Center, a Drawing Room lined with books ( that I loved), a 300 seat Whitby theater, 2 destination eateries: The Whitby Bar & Restaurant and the Orangery: and foremost, superior designed accommodations. My Junior Terrace Suite was so accommodating with high ceilings, and done up in dozens of vivid colors patterns, oversized steel industrial windows, artwork that was both quirky and elegant, bright patterned headboards and furniture that is a melange of modern and vintage. The pinnacle amenity; however, was the corner terrace overlooking Manhattan rooftops. The bath was fabulous with double sink, large marbleized shower and stand alone tub. The Whitby Bar & Restaurant is the culinary sweet spot of the Whitby as it sports it's American dishes through all dayparts and afternoon tea. The dinner menu showcases food fare such as grilled fish, steak as well as the likes of ossobuco agnolotti. I enjoyed the Squash Soup and Dover Soles. The Bar serves an exciting spritzes menu in addition to a complete list of inventive cocktails. The Orangery restaurant, a beauty, is decorated with ceramics etched with NYC landmarks. It serves snacks and small dishes and afternoon tea. So, if you want to be surrounded by a great, colorfully designed hotel............then try the.................Whitby Hotel...............stylish & charming, one of Soho's best.

Checked in late December after a particularly unpleasant stay at another mid town hotel. Thank goodness! Walking into the Whitby is like walking into another world off the grey streets of Manhattan. Kit Kemps design takes you into a fun, colourful oasis with ultra comfortable, quiet and spacious rooms and some impeccable staff members to match. Great location , a bit too close to phenomenal shopping and to Central Park. One of the best hotel breakfasts I’ve experienced although some wait staff could do with being a little more cheery. The bar always lively and atmospheric, love the live music! The bar tenders went above and beyond. The new year’s celebrations were wonderful! Always welcomed so warmly into the hotel by Paul and Jerry. I will absolutely make this my ‘go to’ when in NYC. Well done Kathrin & team !

Had afternoon tea at the Whitby Hotel. It was extra special because of the holidays and their tea room was all decked out for the holidays. Tea was a set price of $ 75 with various tea options. It was nice and satisfying. Bathrooms were private and very clean. Would go again. (Made a reservation)

Excellent hotel just off 5th avenue. Rooms are a good size and beautifully furnished - very comfortable bed. Bar and restaurant is bustling and lively - they always found a space for residents though. Well equipped gym in the basement. No coffee machine in the room which seemed unusual in such a well appointed and thoughtfully furnished hotel.

I stayed in a junior suite. It was a wonderful room. The most efficient and comfortable room for its size I have ever experienced. And I am an experienced traveler. The staff to a person was excellent. Just a few: Arles, Bianca, Marina, Kelvin, Ivan, Tony and all others. The dining room is charming and food well prepared and presented. The woman who has designed this hotel is brilliant. I am in awe of her ability. I shall return.
