The Mansfield Hotel

In New York real estate circles the word “prewar” is one that holds a special significance. This is the era stretching back from the start of the Second World War to, for all practical purposes, roughly the dawn of the 20th century. When buildings were buildings, elevators had attendants...

The Maritime Hotel

The Maritime Hotel was designed in 1966 for the National Maritime Union; hence its name, and its nautical theme. Today it is one of New York's hipster hangouts, owing as much to its location (just off the Meatpacking District) as to the charms of the hotel itself. This is not a traditi...

The Mercer

Located at the intersection of Mercer and Prince in SoHo, The Mercer hotel is New York's first loft hotel and captures the very essence of the area. Lofts are a uniquely SoHo phenomenon, pioneered by artists in the 1960s who took over the neighborhood's many abandoned warehouses. Loft living is a...

The Mosaic Hotel Beverly Hills

Los Angeles seems, at first glance, uninterested in subtlety. Here what gets noticed is the biggest, the boldest, the most ostentatious—and getting noticed is and end to itself. A stereotype? Possibly. But nevertheless, it’s a stereotype that is refuted by a place like the Mosaic Hote...

The Outback Resort

It’s not as familiar perhaps as certain other destinations in British Columbia — and that’s a good thing. Okanagan Lake is about three or four hours inland from Vancouver (or a brisk half-hour from the airport at Kelowna), a distance that separates the day-trippers from the determined. Those who ...

The Parker Palm Springs

This hotel has racked up an impressive number of names in its seventy-year history. Once Gene Autry’s Melody Ranch estate, it was, for a time, the Merv Griffin Resort, then the Givenchy Hotel and Spa—and now, after a substantial rethink by lifestyle designer Jonathan Adler, it’s back; this time a...

The Pearl

It’s an apt name for a hotel like this. The Pearl, in contrast with the rather more ostentatious boutique hotels of San Diego’s Gaslamp district, stands on Rosecrans, on the other side of the airport — the better to avoid the stretch Escalades and valet stands, one supposes. But in these inauspic...

The Peninsula Beverly Hills

The Peninsula Beverly Hills is almost impossibly opulent, even by Hollywood standards, a dressed-up Renaissance mansion in a deeply casual town. This hotel is a favorite of industry bigwigs, offering Hong Kong–style amenities that almost seem custom-designed for high-powered and impatient executi...

The Peninsula Chicago

In the middle of Chicago’s Magnificent Mile of department stores and designer boutiques is the Peninsula Hotel, only the third in America. The Peninsula’s brand of Hong Kong luxury has fared well in New York and LA, but in the heartland? Any doubts are immediately laid to r...

The Peninsula New York

Behind a century-old Beaux Arts facade right on the poshest stretch of Fifth Avenue lies the New York franchise of the phenomenal Hong Kong-based Peninsula Hotel. And if there’s anywhere in America that’s an appropriate spot for some mega-hospitality, Far East style, it’s this particular corner o...

The Raleigh

The growing pains are over: The Raleigh has emerged from its most recent bout with restoration, and the result is a hotel that quite lives up to its exceptional public image. We are also happy to say the rooms are up to the level of the hotel’s impressive public spaces. Today there are other plac...

The Ritz-Carlton Half Moon Bay

Just half an hour down the scenic Highway 1 from San Francisco, Half Moon Bay feels a world away; tucked between the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, this sleepy town still enjoys some of the most spectacular vistas on the West Coast, as well as a distinctly undeveloped and down-home c...

The Ritz-Carlton New Orleans

In a city filled with opulent manors and gleaming white columns, the Ritz-Carlton has found the ideal setting for its own tried-and-true formula for classic luxury. Don’t expect any funky twists on the chain’s standards, like the black terrazzo floors at the South Beach branch or the ...

The Ritz-Carlton New York, Battery Park

It’s hard to believe this is Manhattan. No other hotel in New York offers a view like this one, taking in the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and all of New York Harbor. Like everything in real estate, it’s down to location; in this case, Battery Park City, at the southern tip of Manh...

The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park

We love small, independent hotels, but you’ve got to hand it to the big chains once in a while. It takes a staggering amount of dedicated effort to build a brand up to the point where “Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park” tells you just about everything you could possibly wish to know about a hot...

The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes

At times we’re a bit ambivalent about the big corporate chain hotels, preferring to take our chances with the small and the unique. But how quickly, in a town like Orlando, we go running for the comforting consistency of the Ritz-Carlton. For if Orlando isn’t exactly the town that Walt...
