New York City: A Classic Kickoff
We began our summer at The Manhattan Club, a modern retreat in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. The suites gave us plenty of space—a welcome luxury in a city known for its tiny hotel rooms—and the location was unbeatable. We were steps away from Central Park, Times Square, and 5th Avenue, so whether it was a morning walk to grab coffee or a late-night shopping spree, everything was at our fingertips.
The city itself was a whirlwind of energy: iconic sites like the Empire State Building, sunset views from the Top of the Rock, afternoons exploring cozy coffee shops like Birch Coffee and Blue Bottle, and dining that ranged from classic New York bagels to rooftop dinners with skyline views.
