The Bar/Lounge at Conrad New York Midtown

"Smoked salmon scrambled eggs and buttermilk pancakes at breakfast, classic afternoon tea, and dolled-up bar food in the evening- it redefines all-day dining"

"Amenities: 24-hour Room Service, Bar/lounge, Gym View the entire Hot List of the travel world's most noteworthy debuts in 2007 ›"

"The small lobby opens into the spacious London Bar, serving hearty breakfasts in the morning and London-inspired pub fare (fish & chips, burgers) alongside cocktails in the evening"

"Despite having 562 rooms and 54 floors, the London NYC feels a bit like a boutique hotel, with its chic bar, friendly service, and well-equipped fitness center with lots of natural light"

"This 54-story high-rise was completely overhauled by David Collins (designer of some of London’s most fashionable bars and restaurants) and reopened as the London NYC in early 2007"

"The London Bar serves breakfast, as well as cocktails and small bites come evening"

"A fine dining restaurant, casual sister restaurant, and cosmopolitan bar are all located on the ground floor, off the intimate lobby"

"Gordon Ramsey cooks up unique specialties in his eponymous restaurant (see Hot Tables), as well as in the more casual London Bar where diners choose from a daily selection of pricey, but tasty, small plates"

"Browse the bling at the flagship Tiffany & Co then explore two of the city’s most famous department stores, Barneys and Bergdorf Goodman before stopping for tea at the Kelly Wearstler-designed Goodman's Café, on the seventh floor of Bergdorf’s"

"A gas fireplace filled with branches at one end of the lobby adds a warm touch, especially at night when it is surrounded by the soft light of votive candles, but there is no real lounge where you can sit and enjoy it all"
