Frommer's Review
The atmosphere in this 1902 landmark is so steeped in writers' lore that you'll feel guilty turning on the television instead of reading the latest issue of the New Yorker that's provided in the guest rooms. Rooms can be cramped, but they are equipped with possibly the most comfortable beds in the city as well as 21st-century technology such as high-speed Internet and flatscreen TVs. If you have a tendency toward claustrophobia, head to the plush lobby, where you can sit and sip exquisite (and expensive) cocktails, have a snack, or just read or play on your laptop (the lobby is Wi-Fi-equipped). For a splurge, stay in one of the roomy one-bedroom suites, where all that is missing to get you going on that novel is a manual Smith Corona typewriter.
Meals are served in the Round Table Room, while the fabulous Oak Room is one of the city's top cabaret rooms, featuring such talents as Andrea Marcovicci and Julie Wilson.
