Virgin Holidays View
Set in an historic 1916 building, in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, the Andaz prides itself on delivering the highest standard of service you’ll find anywhere in New York. Even at check-in, guests are offered complimentary drinks before being show to their room, all of which feel luxuriously oversized with 12-foot ceilings, massive windows and spacious bathrooms boasting the biggest (and coolest) walk-in rain showers in town! In the fashionable Bryant Park area, everything is easily accessible on foot, including many excellent restaurants but when it comes to dining, look no further than The Shop. Fast becoming a favourite with locals, the restaurant serves dishes created and inspired by foods sourced from family farms and state purveyors. The Bar Downstairs is another popular resting place, with communal tables, seasonal cocktails and delicious tapas plates for sharing. For the body conscious, the complimentary gym is open 24-hours, there’s 24-hour room service and a concierge to hand every hour of the day too – very fitting for a city that never sleeps!
