A grand oasis of calm in one of the world’s busiest cities, this hotel offers a kind of corporate splendour: clean decor and understated comfort in the heart of the financial district
Location
Nestled among the glittering churn of the Hudson River and the moneyed, businesslike glamour of the Financial District, the Conrad New York Downtown is a relaxing, calm haven amid busy lower Manhattan. New York's Downtown – and especially the bit of it that is home to the Conrad – is not necessarily the thrilling, busy neighbourhood that its name might suggest. It is quiet, especially on an evening or weekend, and though there is an array of bars and shops nearby, it's not quite as well-served as other parts of the city. It remains primarily a business district, with the kind of facilities that you would expect from one, but it is also 10 minutes or so from many of the most famous parts of the city.
