The Chicest Hotel In New York? A Two Night Stay At The Westhouse
Unveiling why I believe that the Westhouse is the chicest hotel in New York City! - Words & Pictures by Hayley...
Located on W 55th just a stones throw from Central Park and just a 5 minute walk to Times Square; this hotel couldn't be anymore convenient if it tried! Situated close to 5th Ave, Museum of Modern Art and a subway station just one block away - this hotel really does have it all! Let's take a closer look at why I think the Pesthouse just *might be the chicest hotel in New York City!...
Where? 201 W 55th St, New York, NY 10019
Checking in: The hotel lobby for me is what sells this hotel as uber-chic, from the huge world map print, gold draped curtains, stacks of books, globes dotted around and an array of old keys displayed behind the check in desk - this hotel really does have the 'Wow-welcome'. I was really woo-ed on first impressions and couldn't wait to get to the room and check out the luxe decor! I have to say that the staff were just so incredible; they offered me so much advice on the best bars, closest subway stations and gave me a map for to help with the remainder of my trip in the Big Apple!
The room: As I mentioned I was bowled over by the lobby/lounge but oh my god the rooms were B-E-A-utiful (Bruce Almighty anyone?!), from the EPIC view of Manhattan, to the full marble bathroom (hello bloggers dream!), and the luxe toiletries and king sized bed - this place was honestly the dream! During my stay I had the pleasure of enjoying a Luxury King Room; complete with glass front rain showers, bespoke Danya Decker bath and body products and a 46" HD television!
The bar/lounge: The Den had to be my favourite part of the Westhouse; it was a luxe lounge/bar that was SO divine! With it's crystal chandeliers and antique fireplace; The Den was a dreamy destination to relax! During the late afternoon/evening I'd take my book down there and enjoy a glass of rose or cheeky cocktail; it was the perfect place to unwind or catch up with friends - the ambience was just everything you want and more!

I still stand by the statement that the hotel is the chicest in New York City (that I've seen/stayed in anyway), I adore the hotel and would highly recommend it for your stay; from the perfect location; luxe decor and incredible service - this hotel needs to be on your bucket list when visiting New York!
