The Beekman

Financial District, New York

Virgin rating

The hotel

Built in the same decade as the Brooklyn Bridge, The Beekman had stiff competition when it came to architectural neighbours – but its glamour and grace granted it kudos with the building buffs of the 19th century – and today. This skyscraper’s kept its drama with its marble entrance, Persian rug-slung lobby, and Victorian balustrade-draped atrium, which stretches nine storeys skyward before being capped with a glass pyramid. It’s not just opulent in design though, with its ‘nothing’s-too-much-trouble’ service and dining scene mirroring its old-world splendour and new-world luxury. Two of Manhattan’s finest names are behind The Beekman’s restaurants: Tom Colicchio reinterprets old and new classics at Temple Court, while Keith McNally recreates French brasserie elegance at Augustine. Or you could join the socialites (and sometimes celebs) at The Alley Cat for cocktails and Japanese Izakaya comfort food.

The hotel is an old, beautiful building, but the people made all the difference. The bellmen were friendly and very helpful, giving me advice on where to go for a run, dinner options, and the best route to the Yankees game. Then, I received a kind personal note from the maid. The team made me feel appreciated and cared for my needs.

The hotel itself is charming and their attention to old world detail is admirable. We had a corner suite which was more tired than charming. The sofa was stained and the room was not as large as what we expected. For those prices at a 5 star hotel, we expected more.

I’ve been wanting to stay here for a long time, and I’m glad I finally made it happen. The atmosphere of the common areas is phenomenal! The atrium, bar and restaurants ooze a wonderful warm feeling of a bygone era. I was concerned a bit by the noise in the central area, because I’m sensitive to noise when trying to sleep, but needn’t have worried. My room was whisper quiet. It was small, but well appointed with a good size bathroom. Wi-Fi was sluggish, which wasn’t a big issue for me but take note if it’s an important feature for you. Great location. Warm and professional service. Having read A Gentleman in Moscow and now watching the series, I felt like it could easily have been set here. Read less

if you like antique, you would enjoy. Next time I would still consider coming here if I need to stay in NYC.
