Looking for a home away from home near the Flatiron Building? The Inn on 23rd might be better than home. The hotel occupies five floors of a 19th-century townhouse and exudes homey warmth. Best of all, culinary students from the nearby New School serve the complimentary breakfast.
Every inch of this place is gorgeous, not to mention comfortable and fun. Furniture is a mish-mash of pre-war antiques, and hallway walls are decorated with family photos of the Fisherman clan.
The rooms are difficult to describe because, as their names suggest, they're all so different. The French Provincial Room, the Quilt Room, the Maritime Room. The family furnishes each with lots of frills, though it seems the décor takes its cue from the luxurious beds topped with sumptuous linens.
The second floor is home to the exquisite lounge that serves as a library and breakfast room. Velvet and satin covered couches and chairs are scattered throughout the space creating an enchanting atmosphere. Guests can order refreshments such as espresso at the wood and brass bar.
