Profile

Patty Fitzpatrick banked on the luck of the Irish when she brought the first of her Ireland-based Fitzpatrick Hotels to the states, and it wasn’t long before the Fitzpatrick Manhattan became a beacon for Irish celebrities like Liam Neeson and Mickey Rooney. The hotel’s standard, albeit smallish, rooms are sufficient, while the suites are ideally suited to a family of three. The 92 rooms are outfitted in warm colors reminiscent of an upscale Irish Inn, with comfy leather armchairs, wood and brass furnishings and marble bathrooms. Touting “a real Irish welcome” for all, the Fitzpatrick brings a little of the Old World to midtown. Leprechauns not included. — Christina Hribar

The Fitz, the hotel's quaint restaurant, whips up a traditional Irish breakfast daily. Well-suited for families looking for a moderately priced hotel in a convenient neighborhood.

Cons
You won't find chic here. For that, try the W New York hotel a few blocks up.

Claim To Fame
Draws a large celebrity Irish clientele such a Liam Neeson, Mickey Rooney and Mary Black.
