The Blakely New Yorkvs?

"With its discreet awning and elegant brick facade, this gem of a hotel is easy to mistake for a refined service apartment or prestigious club.... The midtown location is as good as it gets."

"The Blakely has a clubby yet modern feel to it, making it a more intimate Midtown-hotel option." Full review

"It may be a tried-and-true design motif, but it's hard to resist the English gentlemen's club when it's done right." Full review

"Styled like an old British social club, the quaint, 118-room Blakely boutique offers free continental breakfasts... a great Midtown West location near Central Park, and big rooms with microwaves." Full review

"A modern interpretation of a British gentlemen’s club, the Blakely hotel is situated in midtown west, just a short walk from Central Park and Broadway." Full review

"This hotel has been done up in a boutique tradition with an eye on service."

"At these rates, guests are here by predilection for small, comfortable hotels free of any self-conscious style or sexy posturing." Full review

"Once a country-ish boutique hotel, this Midtown property took a swanky (and welcome) turn when it upgraded to dark wood and added oh-so-NYC touches like jazz in the lobby."

"There's something "genuine" about this "high-class", "old-style" boutique hotel in Midtown, where "polite" staffers offer a "personal touch" and the "large", "relaxing" rooms boast "lovely" decor."

"The dark brick facade may look a bit bleak, but inside The Blakely delivers friendly service and comfortable rooms (if a bit heavy on the dark woods)." Full review
