Step into Gild Hall, a Critics' Pick by New York Magazine, and be transported to a scene that blends Aspen chic with a hip downtown vibe.

Stay Fridays-Saturdays through April for $240-$269 per night -- a $100 savings compared with midweek rates. Bookings include a free room upgrade (based on availability). 

Guests also get guaranteed 4 p.m. late checkout, meaning that even on their last day they'll have time to explore one of Manhattan's oldest neighborhoods, the Financial District. The hotel is a short stroll from the Wall Street Stock Exchange, Trinity Church, the September 11 Memorial and the ferry to the Statue of Liberty.

Back at the hotel, unwind in an intimate nook at the Library Bar or grab a bite at The Libertine, featuring "classic, comfy and inviting" food as noted by Gayot.
