The Carlyle is in a category all it's own. This is the definition of luxury - the staff know how to take care of their guests, and make them feel like they are the most important guest visiting. We don't necessarily dress like the typical guest (we dress comfortably, to say the least), and we were never made to feel like we were welcomed any less than any other guest. The rooms are incredible and comfortable, and Bemelman's is an experience in itself. Unfortunately, we didn't have time to catch a show at Cafe Carlyle, but will return to make that happen. If you have the means, you should most definitely take the plunge and stay a night or two in the lap of luxury.
