Manhattan’s Upper East Side is one of the most desirable and affluent collection of addresses in New York, between Central Park and Fifth Avenue, 59th Street, the East River and 96th Street. But you’ll probably recognise the north/south avenue names better: Park Avenue, Lexington, York Avenue, and then First, Second and Third. It follows that one of the most desirable areas of New York would also be where you’d find some of the best hotels in New York.

As well as being elegant, comfortable and beautiful, the Upper East Side is also where you’ll find the National Design Museum, in the Andrew Carnegie Mansion, the Frick Collection in the Henry Clay Frick House, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of New York City, the Whitney Museum of American Art, Grace Kelly’s former apartment block, the gorgeous Manhattan House, and numerous other galleries and embassies. And of course you’re very close to Central Park. And Fifth Avenue. Or possibly adjacent to one or the other. And you’re served by two subway lines, the four track Lexington Avenue Line with the 4,5,6 and <6> trains, and the Second Avenue Subway with the M, N, Q and R trains.
