Affinia Shelburne offers a prime location in Murray Hill, a residential brownstone-lined neighborhood on Midtown’s East Side. Restaurants, shops, and must-see attractions are within a short walk. Stroll just 4 blocks north to magnificent Grand Central Terminal, where you can admire the star-studded celestial ceiling, indulge in a slice of authentic New York cheesecake, and, of course, catch the subway to points all around town. Be sure to stop by the Chrysler Building, an Art Deco masterpiece, diagonally across from the terminal. Two other Manhattan icons--the Empire State Building and Macy's huge flagship store--are about a half-mile southwest of the hotel. Less known to visitors but well worth a visit, the Morgan Library & Museum is a 5-minute walk from the Affinia Shelburne. The Morgan houses one of the world's greatest collections of artistic, musical, and literary works, including 3 Gutenberg Bibles.
Affinia Shelburne’s entrance faces a largely residential block, and its lobby invites you to feel at home, with a fireplace and Oriental rugs. Just off the lobby is Rare Bar & Grill, offering a modern, gourmet take on burgers. Rare View, the seasonal rooftop lounge, boasts amazing views of the Empire State Building and the Chrysler Building. Need to keep up with your fitness routine? The hotel offers StayFit and Walking Tour Kits, complimentary during your stay. You can also work out in the fitness center, which includes a sauna.
Freshly renovated guestrooms blend chic, eclectic style with comfort and convenience. And most are surprisingly spacious--especially by New York standards. Stretch out in the signature Affinia Bed, complete with a choice of 6 Dream Pillows. Bathrooms come with Philosophy bath products. Flat-screen LCD TVs come with cable channels, and wireless Internet access is available for a surcharge. You can order room service from morning till late night. And, for a purely blissful experience, treat yourself to an in-room facial or massage. This property is smoke-free.
