Profile

Ever dreamt of being Park Avenue royalty? Blending with its residential neighbors, the Regency offers a glimpse of Upper East Side high society without making visitors feel like neighborhood outsiders. A multi-million dollar renovation has yielded revamped and highly contemporary guest rooms; think mahogany with gold accents, high thread-count sheets and silk and velvet fabrics. As a Loews Hotel, the Regency participates in many of that group’s programs, including “Loews Loves Pets” (tons of amenities and services for four-legged guests); Home Sweet Loews (borrow everything from reading glasses, humidifiers and rain boots to workout gear and 5 types of pillows); and “Loews Loves Kids” (special gifts and activities for the under-10 set.) If guests ever feel compelled to leave their plush rooms, they can schmooze with locals downstairs at “The Library,” an atmospheric, old-world lounge and restaurant stocked with novels, knick-knacks and newspapers from around the world. For some of the city’s best cabaret, opt for the adjoining Feinstein’s. — E. J. Samson

Indulge in your Park Avenue excess by calling the 24-hour limousine service.
