Located in the ornate and decadent David Whitney Building, this new hotel is the talk of the town right now. Touting two bars, a cafe, and a gym, Aloft has all the amenities needed for someone to work and play in the city. A real standout is how the Aloft renovated the magnificent marble lobby — it's truly a sight to behold.
