Andaz 5th Avenue - a Concept by Hyatt

"Serene rooms, a central location, and complimentary touches (like mini-bars) make this Andaz an easy choice in Midtown. The 184 rooms are decently sized—particularly for this part of town—and have a simple décor free of clutter. All come with a desk, walk-in showers stocked with NYC-based Fellow Barber bath products, and a fluffy all-white bed, as well as high ceilings and tall windows. Complimentary soft mini-bar items like chips and locally-sourced chocolate get replenished daily; alcohol, which includes beer from local brands like Bronx Brewery, is available for a charge. Not all rooms have notable views, but some of those that do also have step-out balconies or furnished terraces from which to look at the park or the Empire State Building." - John Wogan, Nicole Schnitzler, CNT Editors, Sandra Ramani
