Hotel on Rivington
Description
Floor-to-ceiling windows are a theme throughout this 20-story posh palace: The second-floor lobby overlooks the storefronts of Rivington Street, and every chic-but-simple room (by Parisian designer India Mahdavi) has an unobstructed city view. Even Thor, the eclectic restaurant now run by Stanton Social executive chef Jesi Solomon, has a 21ft glass ceiling. To make the most of the potential for exhibitionism, get your tresses tamed at the on-site Ricardo Rojas Salon before slipping into a banquette at 105 Riv, the wildly popular street-level bar. Rooms 110. Credit AmEx, DC, Disc, MC, V.
