Star Lounge<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\nSince it was a bit cold on my weekend in NYC, I took the opportunity to luxuriate in the private Ritz-Carlton Club Lounge, an option offered to Ritz guests.\u00a0The lounge provides a retreat for leisure guests and business travelers that is far removed from the city\u2019s hustle. With private check-in and check-out, as well as a dedicated concierge who can arrange things like dinner reservations and Broadway tickets, it certainly was a wonderful experience.<\/p>\n
But to be honest, even if you decided never to venture into the city for a meal, the Club Lounge\u2019s varied and delicious assortment of food and treats throughout the day would satisfy even the most discerning palette.<\/p>\n
When you do make it out, the city\u2019s famous Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue are fabulous and just steps away, featuring the flagship stores of legendary luxury brands, such as Prada, Gucci, FAO Schwartz, Bergdorf Goodman, Tiffany\u2019s (yes, the one from the movie!), and even the largest retail Apple Store. \u00a0If you can\u2019t quite decide where to go, or don\u2019t want to brave the crowds, the Ritz-Carlton\u2019s concierge team can arrange personal shopping services or a private, chauffeured tour of the city\u2019s best stores and boutiques.<\/p>\n
And just 10 blocks south of the hotel are the famous duo of Broadway and Times Square. Before you give up on those shows that seem sold out, talk to The Ritz-Carlton\u2019s concierge, who can make magic happen. Also, great discounts to “same day” shows can be purchased at the Times Square TKTS booth. The current production of Kinky Boots<\/em> was excellent, and provided two hours of smiles and lasting memories.<\/p>\nThank you, Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park for bringing to life a truly immersive luxury hospitality experience that will remain forever memorable.<\/p>\n
