Its 81 rooms, suites and apartments give the property a compact scale, while its defining contrast is between the West End outside and a full floor dedicated to wellness within. Brasserie Angelica serves as the hotel’s restaurant, with Gambit Bar adding a separate evening space.

The Greenwich Hotel

New York, United States

CityBoutique

Set in Tribeca, The Greenwich Hotel is a compact Lower Manhattan property where individually appointed rooms combine handcrafted finishes and influences from different design traditions. The stay’s center of gravity is unusually inward-looking for downtown: a guest-only Drawing Room and courtyard sit alongside Locanda Verde, while Shibui Spa puts a pool beneath a reconstructed Japanese farmhouse ceiling. Outside, cobbled residential blocks and Hudson River Park give the hotel a neighborhood-scale waterfront setting.
