When you have hotel guru and former Studio 54 lead Ian Schrager at the helm of a hotel, you know it's going to be cooler than cool. The ground-floor gift shop (it has a fantastic coffee-table book selection), foliage-everywhere restaurant POPULAR, elegant Bar Chrystie, and the hotel's debonairly decorated accommodations are hip to their core. With a "luxury for all" approach, you can stay here and not break the bank. Of course, you can't leave without a snap in front of its Insta-famous escalators.
