Lucerne Hotel

Far from the madding crowd of Midtown Manhattan, this regal, flawlessly restored Brownstone hotel lures you into its relaxed embrace through its Baroque red terra-cotta entrance. The plush comfortable beds in these classically styled rooms will lull you to sleep in no time. While removed from most of the action, kids will love that it’s a stone’s throw from the Natural History Museum. Guests can enjoy a discount at adjoining Nice Matin, the bustling French bistro with creative riffs on Riviera dishes like delicious swiss chard socca.
