"Situated in a prime location on the museum mile, the glamorous, art-filled Carlyle boasts handsome rooms (some with dazzling Central Park views) alongside one of the world’s most famous bars."

We don’t usually begin a hotel review with an intro to the bar, but Bemelmans Bar deserves the distinction. As one of the most famous watering holes in the world, the splendid Art Deco room with its murals by Ludwig Bemelmans, creator of the beloved Madeline children’s books, is the kind of place where memorable and great things happen. Bemelman, by the way, clever as he was, didn’t ask for cash for the work he did here. Rather, he took accommodation for himself and his family in the hotel for six months as compensation. Clever man.

And although this elegant Beaux-Arts building may not have had all the mod cons back then that it does today, it was still one of the city’s most prestigious hotels. Located on what is fondly termed the museum mile in town, the Frick, the MET, the Whitney and the Guggenheim are all nearby. Not to mention the countless boutiques and many fabulous restaurants in the vicinity.

Not to mention the countless boutiques and many fabulous restaurants in the vicinity. 

The 188 rooms and suites don’t all face Central Park, but at least ask for one overlooking the courtyard, and you’ll be sure of a good night’s sleep. For the ultimate when it comes to housing, the Empire Suite is it. It’s a three-bedroom duplex with unobstructed views of Central Park, and just about everything else you could possibly need or want, like Bang & Olufsen systems and a fully-appointed kitchen. Otherwise, the standard rooms, too, are comfortable and handsomely appointed. We did miss a coffee machine in the room, however.

But you don’t come here to quibble over a few greenbacks. Spend some time at the Sisley-Paris Spa where you’ll leave feeling like a new person. There are packages for men too. And for the ladies, a blow-out at the Yves Durif Salon awaits.

Glamour, incidentally, is the name of the game here. The gold-hued marble lobby is hung with a spectacular art collection. And when it comes to dining, the Café Carlyle is pretty spectacular, too. A take on a classic cabaret, you can dine while listening to a roster of greats: Woody Allen & the Eddy Davis New Orleans Jazz Band, for one. Otherwise, opt for the Dover sole meunière, or some such similar, at The Carlyle Restuarant for dinner, especially if true romance is in the air. Because staying here will be something you will never forget, for sure.
