"A gem of a boutique hotel set in the very heart of Midtown Manhattan, The Whitby Hotel boasts spacious Kit Kemp-designed guestrooms, an artsy restaurant and live music performances."

One of a trifecta of Firmdale properties located in the Big Apple, the Whitby Hotel is a boutique gem situated in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Perfectly positioned for quite literally everything, guests of the Whitby will have some of the best that New York City has to offer right on their doorstep. Must-visit attractions like MoMA, Carnegie Hall and Rockefeller Center are all less than ten minutes away by foot, while Central Park is just three blocks north. For everything else, a dozen subway lines are close at hand to whisk you away to any other neighbourhood in the city.
Celebrated British designer Kit Kemp is the mastermind behind the Whitby Hotel’s enchanting interiors, which are uniquely creative and absolutely bursting with life. Each of the 87 rooms is individually designed, and is an ode to Kemp’s signature style of contemporary English whimsy: expect vibrant hues, delightful headboards and a dizzying assortment of patterns that somehow manage to work perfectly together....   Show more

Each of the 87 rooms is individually designed, and is an ode to Kemp’s signature style of contemporary English whimsy: expect vibrant hues, delightful headboards and a dizzying assortment of patterns that somehow manage to work perfectly together. High ceilings and enormous windows make the spaces feel even larger than they are – and they’re already generously sized to begin with. By New York City standards, the accommodations are positively roomy, with even the entry-level Superior Rooms starting at 31 square metres.
Guests of the Whitby will have just about every imaginable cuisine on their doorstep, with hundreds of spectacular eateries located within just a few minutes' stroll. One great option is set within the hotel itself: the Whitby Bar and Restaurant. Elevated yet approachable and magnificently designed (think gorgeously upholstered banquettes, spectacular artwork and a 30-foot pewter bar beneath dozens of suspended wicker baskets), this spot is beloved by hotel guests and New Yorkers alike. Start your day there with avocado toast or an açai banana split in the morning, and come back later for a lunch of housemade squid ink tagliatelle or a skirt steak dinner. Afternoon tea is served here as well, and live performances are particularly worthwhile. More formal meals can be enjoyed in the adjacent Orangery, which is a lovely, light-filled space.
Before a stay at The Whitby Hotel, be sure to have a peek at the property’s calendar: live music is hosted every Saturday evening, featuring both established and emerging New York City talent. Equally fabulous are Friday evenings from 6-9, which are dedicated to Negronis and Jazz music (a superb combination) in both the Whitby Bar and Orangery.
