Elegant murals celebrate the modern metropolis. Intimate in-room features bring the spirit of the city in. Dining, too, is a divine experience, therefore the biggest challenge will be to choose. Start your evening with cabaret in Cafe Carlyle. Conclude the night at Bemelmans, surrounded by the namesake artist’s famed illustrations in this upscale piano bar.
