Frommer's Review

One of New York's classic grande dame hotels, this 1927-built beauty, from the marble-and-bronze lobby and the Italian Renaissance-painted paneled elevators, the Sherry is pure old-school luxury. Though it's a big building, only 77 rooms are used for the hotel; the rest are private residential co-ops. Guest rooms vary in decor, but each is grandly proportioned with high ceilings, big bathrooms, and walk-in closets. The rooms are spacious and every one features high-quality furnishings and art. About half are suites with kitchenettes that have a cook-top or microwave, often both. Bathrooms are huge and impeccably designed and outfitted. And with an enviable location at Fifth and 58th opposite Central Park and adjacent to the Plaza Hotel, most of the rooms have glorious views. Other perks include a welcoming box of Godiva chocolates, and complimentary soft drinks, water, and mineral water. And though the hotel is from a different, more refined era, it's not stuffy -- the hotel's white-gloved elevator operator and I had a refreshing discussion about the Yankees' prospects for the upcoming season.
