TRAVEL + LEISURE – THE 16 BEST BOUTIQUE HOTELS IN NEW YORK CITY

The Wall Street Hotel

Located on the corner of Wall Street and Pearl Street, this 180-room FiDi hotel is owned, coincidentally, by an Australian pearling family, and they partner with the Billion Oyster Project, a nonprofit dedicated to restoring the oyster reefs in the harbor. (You can buy the half-shell bottle opener in your room to help the cause.) The hotel isn’t far from the South Street Seaport, and there’s an appropriately nautical palette of navies and greys in guest rooms. Stop into the Lounge on Pearl for martini frites and dressed oysters, or book a dinner at the French chophouse La Marchande, known for signature dishes like salted cod and scallop fritters. At night, there’s no better way to shake off the stresses of New York than with a bespoke bath turndown service.
