Important Hotel Information:

Leave the gleaming chrome and minimalist style to the others: At The Westgate Hotel, your guest room is an enclave of civility and elegance. The Richelieu furniture, imported from Europe, is upholstered in delightful sorbet shades of peach and cream. The spacious work desk is leather-topped, the bathroom is marble, and the carpets are thick, pure wool. You may not want to leave your room, but the public spaces are equally divine. Even a trip down the hall to the elevator is enriched with original art, 18th century tapestries and bronze sculptures. The lobby at The Westgate Hotel was modeled after one of the anterooms in Versailles, and the enormous desk used by the concierge is a twin to one found in Versailles. Don’t dawdle too long, though; there are treats awaiting your ears and taste buds as well as your eyes. Afternoon tea is served to the strains of a harp, beneath the sparkling Baccarat crystal chandeliers. The Plaza Bar offers live jazz and nouveau martinis. And at Le Fontainebleu, you can choose from the classic French menu, the Seafood Soiree, Chef’s Table events and more. Of course, if it’s a Saturday, you’ll want to round off an exceptional evening like this with a tango, samba or some salsa dancing. Just don’t oversleep the exceptional champagne brunch on Sunday.
