The Wallace Hotel
From
581.702 €
“Neighbourhood address on historic 76th Street, between brownstones and fine grocers, far from the Midtown tumult.”
The Wallace Hotel occupies a tree-lined street of the Upper West Side, this residential New York the guides often forget. We sleep in rooms in neutral tones, light wood and white linen, sash windows giving onto red-brick facades. The fitness centre is compact but functional, sufficient to keep the pace. Central Park is reached on foot in five minutes, Lincoln Center in ten. From 582 € a night, it's one of the rare family addresses accepting pets in this area. We recommend for those who want to live New York like a local, not like a tourist ✨
Who is it for?
Who we recommend it to
We recommend The Wallace to visiting New York families, to couples who prefer residential calm to Times Square neons, to business travellers tired of Midtown chains. It's an address for those who want to walk to the Met, brunch at Barney Greengrass, return in the evening to a silent street. Pets are accepted, which remains rare in this price range in Manhattan.
The building
Architecture and interiors
The Wallace occupies an eight-storey building on 76th Street, early 20th-century neo-classical architecture typical of the Upper West Side. Contemporary sober interior: light wood, beige and grey tones, Scandinavian furniture, original sash windows. Rooms measure between 20 and 35 m², generous sizes for Manhattan. The lobby is compact, without decorative pretension, we meet more residents than tourists there.
