Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This small but classy studio apartment has been expertly furnished and decorated to create a friendly and bright space for its guests. While there may be times when you’ll find it a bit cramped (especially if you come as a pair), we recommend you use this home as a base and extensively explore the area you’re in. This residential part of town is on the calmer and quieter side of things, but in just a short walk guests will find themselves amongst the hustle and bustle of Gramercy Park, Chelsea, Union Square and Midtown.

Local guide
About Kips Bay
Kips Bay is a mainly residential neighbourhood, moments away from the rush of Midtown, which has lovely waterfront views across to Brooklyn and Queens. The neighbourhood combines historic brick townhouses with new high-rise apartments, and is home to some of the country's best hospitals - a good neighbourhood for the hypochondriacs amongst you perhaps? Some people accuse it of being non-descript and, it's true, it's definitely not going to win...
