Just last month, the James Beard Award winners were announced, and it called to mind a couple of my favorite stays in New York that offer five-star service and luxurious accommodations, along with exceptional cuisine:
1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, New York đ˝ď¸ â Overlooking the Manhattan skyline, this waterfront escape pairs sustainable luxury with impeccable dining at Barbuto from James Beard Award-winning chef Jonathan Waxman, known for signature dishes like chicken with salsa verde, handmade gnocchi, and more. And, after a day of sightseeing, unwind at the spa for a fully customized treatment tailored to your needs.
Hotel Barrière Fouquet's New York, New York đ˝ď¸ â This hotel seamlessly combines Parisian glamour with New York energy through its acclaimed restaurants and elegant cocktail bars, while dining at Brasserie Fouquetâs feels like being transported straight to the streets of Paris. Plus, its prime location in Tribecaâs historic district offers stunning views of Manhattanâs skyline while being a short distance from major sights.
If youâre heading to NYC, where are you booking your next dinner reservation?
