Located in Yorkville on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, this bright, modern apartment is the perfect base for a couple or solo traveller looking to be close to the city’s best sights. With its tall windows letting plenty of light flood in, as well as its sleek furnishings and wood floors, you’ll feel instantly at home in this chic pad. Start mornings off with a relaxing soak under the rainfall shower before fixing yourself a coffee and bagel to enjoy at the stylish breakfast bar. There’s a desk space here if you need to catch up on work, but with so much to see and do in the area, we recommend heading straight out to explore. Take a stroll through leafy Central Park (an eighteen-minute walk away), then pop into the Guggenheim Museum (twenty minutes away on foot) to soak up some culture before grabbing a bite to eat at a local deli. With the Metropolitan Museum of Art just a twenty-minute walk away too and countless shops, eateries and bars on your doorstep, you’ve got plenty to keep you entertained here, day and night.
