SERVICES

What to expect: A hotel since the 1920s, the Shelburne was redone in 1999. A gracious lobby with Oriental carpets, teardrop chandeliers, and a fireplace sets the scene for a hotel with old-world ambience and a friendly staff. The hotel attracts guests from the worlds of fashion, banking, and finance; visitors to the U.N.; and leisure travelers. Valet parking and the services of a concierge are among the amenities.

Amenity highlights: The penthouse roof garden of the Shelburne is a dramatic setting for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres in summer, with the bright lights of the Chrysler Building and other city skyscrapers twinkling all around. It can be reserved as a very special site for receptions or banquets.

In addition to the in-house fitness center, guests have free access to the health club and spa at the nearby Dumont Plaza. The front desk is ready to help with business needs from secretarial services to photocopying.

Valet parking:
$32 per 24-hour period for standard cars. $42 per 24-hour period for SUVs. No in/out privileges.
