Recent Dream Review: "The Dream Hotel was very aesthetically pleasing. The decor of the lobby and the rooms was really cool in a futristic, Zen way. (They even had a book about Buddism instead of the ubiquitous bible in the bedside drawer!) The staff was friendly, and checked me in promptly. They even remebered the first name of my guest who had arrived later than me. Small town courtesy in a big city! The shower had GREAT water pressure, which I am very fussy about. The bath products were terriffic and tied in with the Zen theme. They have a spa there, but didn't visit because I felt it was a bit pricey, but they offered a more interesting array of services than your typical hot stone massage/ facial/ reflexology spa. Our room was on the first floor, facing the street which I thought was going to be nosiy and make it difficult to sleep, but it was actually quite quiet. The turndown service was a nice touch after a night on the town. And the bathrobes were deliciously cozy! We had a great time at the Dream Hotel!"

    A short guide to Midtown

    Some of NYC’s best-known landmarks are north of 14th and south of 59th—or Midtown Manhattan. Here, couples kiss atop the Empire State Building. Grand Central Station’s opal-faced clock is a famed meeting spot. While fortunes are made on Wall Street, fortunes are spent at Fifth Avenue’s shops. Other highlights include Madison Square Garden, the United Nations, and the Garment and Diamond districts.

    Four blocks away, New York's Central Park offers paths for running, biking, and in-line skating, as well as tennis courts, horseback-riding trails, and a seasonal lap pool. The Loeb Boathouse, on a 20-acre lake, offers rowboat and bicycle rentals.
