Best on the Upper West Side
My husband and I recently stayed for 3 nights in the Vermont Suite at the Inn NYC. I almost hesitate to write this review because it’s one of the best kept secrets on the Upper West Side. However, we had such a fantastic stay and it’s too easy to rave about the Inn. We are former residents of the UWS and were looking for something that reminded us of living there. We normally stay at the Beacon Hotel in the neighborhood, but we were unable to get a reservation. After some further searching, we found the Inn and it sounded exactly like what we were looking for. Our suite was luxurious, beautifully decorated, comfortable with lots of personal touches. The hospitality and host Elyn made us instantly feel at home. We had our own separate entrance to the Vermont Suite and the array of snacks, fresh cheeses, quiche and bottle of wine upon our arrival allowed us to settle in and unwind after our travel to the city. The location is on a beautiful street and within walking distance of both Central Park and Riverside Park, numerous cafes, wine bars, shops and other local area attractions (Lincoln Center, Museum of Natural History). Its also ideally located to the subway for easy access to Times Square, Theater District, etc. The bedroom is on the lower level and was so comfy and quiet and just what we needed after busy days of walking around. We felt like we lived there and didn’t want to leave. We also had an opportunity to see several of the other suites at the Inn and they were equally as beautiful. I travel frequently for both work and pleasure and while this may be more expensive, it’s worth it to have your “own” place in the city rather than a tiny impersonal hotel room. It rates at the top of my list and you could not be more spoiled. We will definitely be returning to our other “home” in the city soon.
