Cool enough to stay in the Dylan? You wish. This is the boutique hotel that everyone's talking about: from the oversized lanterns strewn around its entrance to the iPods in its immaculate guest rooms, every detail of this hotel has been carefully thought out. The guests who breeze in and out of the swish lobby and stylish cocktail bar (check out the funky zinc counter) are the kind of well-dressed hipsters who seem entirely at home among the sumptuously upholstered furniture, the yards of trendy wallpaper and the minimalism of the bright, white terrace.
Guest rooms are a triumph of understated style blended with flashes of boldness (the bedheads, in particular, are stunning). Bathrooms are loaded with gorgeous Etro products, beds are clothed in Frette sheets, the in-room safes are laptop-compatible - you get the picture. This is serious luxury aimed at people who expect nothing less.
