ACE Hotel New York

ACE Hotel New York is finally open, I don’t get to stay at much hotels in NYC since I live here- only when there’s events or when friends are in town I’ll visit. But last week was an exception, thanks to Sunglass Hut and Matt Goias I got to stay at ACE Hotel which just opened. Hotelier Alex Calderwood’s first East Coast hipster ACE Hotel is conveniently located at West 29th Street and Broadway, super close to K-Town and tourist shopping hotspot 34th Street. The hotel was designed by design firm Roman and Williams, 247 rooms were created with reference to a rock star’s crib featuring vintage furniture and retro fixtures.

As I walked into the hotel I was already distracted by the design and fixtures, the hotel is really “cool”. When I got up to the 3rd floor I was really excited to see how my room looked. I stayed in Room 312, a Superior Deluxe room equipped with a king size bed, private bath with French doors, vintage furniture including a turn table, guitar and SMEG refrigerator (I want one!!!), it was about 400 sq. ft. of space. The room had free WiFi internet so I was able to work comfortablely and of course I brought along my Vivienne Tam x HP Mini 1000 to blog with, gotta stay connected at all times. Love the hotel, it felt very homey (wish my room was that neat haha) and cozy. Very different from the hotels I’ve stayed at, the treats were yummy and everything was just perfect, check out the pics for yourself!
