“The Roger Smith stands out with its blend of Art Deco charm and modern artistic touches. It feels like a family-run establishment, right in the heart of Midtown, offering an intimate rooftop bar with inspiring city views. I think the personalized service and rotating art exhibitions make it a refreshing alternative to the typical chain hotel.”
