High Times At High Line Hotel

Jan 20, 2014
Daily / Exclusive

A former seminary, situated on what was once a 17th-century apple orchard that belonged to Clement Clarke Moore (author of  ’Twas the Night Before Christmas), The High Line Hotel brings a new luxury option to Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Sixty light-filled rooms with beautiful hardwood floors and bespoke furnishings with a “collegiate gothic” theme contain comfort touches that include plush robes and slippers, luxury bedding and down pillows, enormous bathrooms, complimentary WiFi, complimentary phone calls worldwide, 46-inch HDTVs, and windows that open to views of High Line Park, the Parisian-styled gardens or nearby historic townhouses.

What you’ll find inside: rewired 1920s rotary dial telephones, authentic Oriental carpets and a collection of Edwardian and Victorian antiques. The hotel offers more than 8,000 square feet of event and meeting space that’s both splendid and decidedly dramatic, beginning with the 3,500-square-foot Refectory, complete with a Gothic paneled hall accessed by a grand, baronial marble staircase. Popular as a location for weddings, fashion shows and photo shoots, the space includes a minstrel’s gallery, gabled gilt encrusted roof and a ceiling that soars four stories high.
