The Gershwin Hotel

The Gershwin Hotel
East 27th Street
New York, September 2008

“Named after composer George Gershwin, who sold his scores in the neighbourhood, the Gershwin Hotel was founded in 1993 by Quebecer Suzanne Tremblay. She developed a personal checklist from all the places she’d stayed during her extensive world travels. They should be affordable; should foster a sense of adventure and help you learn about yourself and where you’re going. ‘I need a product that speaks to me about New York... For me, my direct connection to New York was art.’” (New York’s Gershwin Hotel is music to your ears, The Star)

I've never heard of this, but do love Gershwin's music! If I were in New York, I'd have to check this place out. Did you stay there?
