At this sophisticated and sexy New York hotel, stars are commonplace. Lindsay Lohan, Kirsten Dunst, Uma Thurman, Gwyneth Paltrow and Kevin Spacey have all been spotted here, along with diehard New Yorker Sarah Jessica Parker, even though she has her own home in the city. So what draws big players like Spike Lee and Heidi Klum? The style, to start with, which artfully combines nineteenth-century industrial architecture with eclectic Arts & Crafts-inspired furnishings. Eight-foot-tall windows offer terrific views, but the perch you really want is in the street level Grand Bar, where the price of a celebrity sighting is as low as the cost of your favorite cocktail.
