Best Line in a Hotel Review E-ver

In an article about the post 9/11 revitalization of the Financial District of Lower Manhattan, rooms at Thompson Hotels' Gild Hall are described as:  "a mix of stocks and bonds, James Bond, and just plain bondage."*


Said guestrooms feature beds with custom-made 400 thread count SFERRA linens, custom headboards by Jim Walrod, 12-foot ceilings with antique brass chandeliers, luxurious bathrooms with marble floors, oversized terrycloth robes by Frette, bathroom amenities by C.O. Bigelow, LCD flat-screen TVs, and iPod docks. Mini-bars feature (New York favourite) Dean & Deluca gourmet snacks.

One of five Thompson Hotels in New York, Gild Hall's Library Bar can accommodate 32 guests for a private dinner, or you can party like a rock star in its 850 square foot Penthouse Suite.
