The Court – LOST GEM
Previously the W Hotel, this chic establishment offers luxury accommodations in the thick of the Midtown fervor. Catering to the European traveler, but also to a less far-flung crowd, the Court offers modern, contemporary, and spacious rooms. The adjoining Beer & Buns restaurant provides breakfast, lunch and dinner to guests seven days a week. The St. Giles group hail from England, but are in the midst of expanding their brand as they have hotels in Malaysia, the Philippines and in the near future, Australia. Each hotel is strategically placed with the ultimate goal of having locations in all of the major hubs in the world. As Abigail Tan, the director of corporate affairs explained to me, “We are an exciting and forward thinking brand.” Their campaign theme is “experience the city.” The staff is available at any given hour to advise guests on everything there is to do in Manhattan. The St. Giles group also owns Tuscany Hotel, a few doors down.
