As much as we love hanging below 14th Street, we’re the first to show you a more elevated side of the city (in every sense of the word). Enter the Quin Hotel, where uptown leisure is taken to the next level with impeccable service, an uptown aesthetic, and sky-high balconies complete with the soaring city views of a true staycationer’s wildest dreams. The floor-to-ceiling marble lobby doesn’t hurt either. It goes without saying that the Quin embodies what every Central Park-adjacent hotel strives to be: classic New York. And away we go.

THE SPOT: The Quin Hotel |101 W 57th St, New York, NY

THE STATS: 208 guest rooms, ideal Central Park location, exceptional concierge services, and bi-level American eatery, The Wayfarer

PERFECT FOR: The ultimate urban retreat at the center of it all

If you’re going to stay in a luxe AF corner suite, you’d better pack accordingly. From a blissful skincare treatment courtesy of Scandic Botanica to lucky charms from Fortune + Frame (the perfect #robelife accoutrement), THE STAYCATIONERS left no detail untouched. After makeovers and a fresh coat of Emilie Heathe polish (hello, in-room manicures), the crew threw on their Privé shades and headed outside for an obligatory round of champagne on the terrace.

With the sun set and the bottle emptied, THE STAYCATIONERS headed straight for an evening of uptown glamour. The eclectic ambiance and literature-stacked lounge set the mood, while Karolina Zmarlak threads and Flont fine jewelry had the squad feeling like 24-karat magic.

Nothing builds up an appetite more than an all-day staycay. Luckily, the crew had a reservation at The Wayfarer, where American fare is done right in the chicest of settings. Sprawled across velvet booths, THE STAYCATIONERS sipped and shared an assortment of seafood faves like bigeye tuna, diver scallops, and grilled salmon. But even the most seasoned staycationette knows that a New York night is never complete until heels hit the pavement. Bundled up in their faux-fur best (hello, Apparis), it was off to see where the city that never sleeps would take them next.

Keep up with THE STAYCATIONERS as they take over new hotels in new cities each month. This installation made possible by The Quin Hotel, The Wayfarer, Karolina Zmarlak, Apparis, Scandic Botanica, Fortune & Frame, Flont and Privé Revaux Eyewear.
