The Algonquin & Albert: Home to Writers, Actors, Musicians and Revolutionaries

It could only have happened in a city like New York, where everything is possible, that the rebellious Chelsea Hotel eloped with the erudite Algonquin to fulfill their clandestine love. After taking a forbidden bite of a rather big apple, their merged knowledge, genes and geniuses resulted in the Albert Hotel. The forgotten Albert Hotel […]

All’Algonquin e Albert Hotel di Manhattan, tra scrittori, attori, musicisti e rivoluzionari

Poteva capitare solo in una città come New York, dove tutto è possibile, che il ribelle Chelsea hotel fuggisse con l’erudito Algonquin per realizzare il loro amore clandestino. Dopo aver dato un morso proibito alla grande mela, la combinazione della loro acquisita conoscenza, i loro geni e il loro genio hanno portato alla luce l’Albert […]

It’s So New York! Singers, Mafiosi, and Swingers: the Many Lives of the Ansonia

She was born in 1897 at 73rd and Broadway in what was then still the outskirts of New York. Her father was the rich multimillionaire and property developer William Earle Dodge Stokes.

Gay Hotels, the Pride of New York: From Brooklyn’s St. George to Manhattan’s Out

I have worked in hotels for about 20 years, and I love everything about them, but being gay helped me to understand that the complex relationship we have had with hotels in New York is, once again, a reflection of the evolving history of our minority. In fact, until not long ago, being openly gay […]

The Edison & New Yorker: Where Batman Met the Godfather and Muhammad Ali

And God said, “Let there be light!” and there was light; however, it was neon and it was not God but Thomas Alva Edison who switched on the lights illuminating one of the most distinctive Art Deco buildings in New York City: the eponymous Edison Hotel In New York City, Art Deco flourished in the […]

Edison e New Yorker Hotel, dove Batman incontrava il Padrino e Muhammad Ali

E Dio disse: “Sia la luce!”. E la luce fu. Anche se si trattava di neon e non fu Dio, bensì Thomas Alva Edison in questo caso, ad accendere le luci che illuminarono uno dei più caratteristici edifici Art Déco di New York, l’omonimo Edison Hotel. A New York l’Art Déco fiorì nei ruggenti anni […]

Women’s Hotels in New York, Where Men Were Not Welcome

Behind every great city there are great women. New York City, as the greatest city in the world, has had the greatest women of the world. But the world has not always been great towards them, nor grateful, nor kind. There was a time, until 1965, when a single woman travelling alone, could not check […]

Gli Hotel delle donne di New York, dove gli uomini non potevano entrare

Dietro ogni grande città ci sono sempre delle grandi donne. New York City, come la più grande delle città, ha conosciuto le più grandi donne del mondo ma il mondo non si è sempre rivelato altrettanto grande, né riconoscente, né gentile nei loro confronti. In un tempo non lontano e fino al 1965, una donna […]

The Standard Hotel, the Liberty Inn and the Pursuit of Happiness in Manhattan

At the Standard, nothing is private, not even your privates (!) as flocks of voyeuristic couples and self-sufficient evening guests share their love of the city in front of the floor to ceiling windows of their rooms. Meanwhile, at a Grindr party in the lounge, two floors of the hotel were left with the doors fully open for everybody’s convenience. However, just across the street from the Standard Hotel, the real spirit of the Meatpacking District still lives on, hopefully for much longer, the Liberty Inn.

The New Waldorf-Astoria, a Show that Marks the Character of NY Hospitality

Among the many VIP guests there was Donatella Versace. Rumor has it that she used to rent a three-bedroom suite with one of the rooms to be used exclusively for her makeup. She also requested that note pads and pens be strategically placed every five feet around the entire apartment, because “inspiration can come at any moment.” Saudi King Abdullah in 2010 rented 200 rooms at the last minute, forcing the hotel to relocate 200 guests who had already booked, and then, he was a no-show. And then when President Mattarella almost ran into Kanye West and Kim Kardashian…
