The Scene
This B&B is a true oasis, located on a quiet residential street just a half block from the dynamic Broadway-Amsterdam Avenue intersection. Owner Elyn Mensch is more than a bed-and-breakfast proprietor--she's your personal servant and New York City advisor. Need an American power adapter for your European hair dryer? Enjoy a specific type of wine? Want Grade A maple syrup? She'll make sure it happens.

The Details
The inn has four suites. All are decorated differently, and all are temples of comfort and beauty. The Opera Suite boasts a baby grand piano, a fireplace and a terrace for morning coffee. The Spa Suite is often requested by Mensch's returning guests and has a Jacuzzi and sauna. The Vermont Room is a country-lover's dream, and the Library Suite can keep you reading for days. Every suite is stocked with epicurean goodies, including gourmet cheese, wine and fruit.
