Located in the heart of
Manhattan's historic Flatiron
district, and but a few blocks
away from the Empire State
Building, the Gershwin Hotel
is a superb jumping-off point
for doing everything what
there is to do in New York,
including sightseeing,
museum-going, shopping, and
nightclubbing.
The Gershwin experience
begins as soon as you walk
into the Pop Art-bedecked
lobby, a museum space unto
itself that contains an actual
Campbell's Soup Can by Andy
Warhol, signed by the artist
himself. The welcome continues
at the front desk, where our
guests are greeted by the
friendly, multinational staff,
who between them boast a
formidable array of
languages-and smiles!
A veritable arts festival
unto itself, the Gershwin also
boasts The Living Room, a
separate performance space
that features regular music,
comedy, and theater
performances.
You can also read your
e-mail in one of the two handy
Internet kiosks.
The Gershwin experience,
however, doesn't stop at the
ground floor. Each of the
thirteen floors boasts its own
installation of original art
for you to enjoy.
Then there are the guests
themselves, who represent a
cross-section of New York and
all the lively arts.
By the time you check
out-if you check out-you'll
agree that the Gershwin is not
just another hotel!
