Morgans, A Morgans Original in New York ★★★★  

Within walking distance of Fifth Avenue shopping, the business district and Times Square in midtown Manhattan's fashionable East Side, 4-star New York hotel Morgans, A Morgans Original recently underwent a complete design update by legendary designer Andrée Putman, whose projects have ranged from the Guggenheim Museum to Peter Greenaway movie sets. Reinterpreted to propel Morgans style and spirit forward without changing its unique character, this luxury Madison Avenue hotel offers a seamless blend of understatement, simplicity and cutting-edge sophistication. In addition to a complete makeover of the hotel's 113 guestrooms and penthouse, the Morgans Living Room has been newly redesigned and upgraded with a high-tech business center, providing the ideal spot to relax, watch a movie, read a book, socialize or catch up on work. Morgans' beautifully theatrical Philippe Starck-designed signature restaurant, Asia de Cuba, continues to serve an innovative Latin/Asian fusion menu and remains one of New York City’s liveliest and most popular restaurants.
