Best New York Hotels with Views.




The Standard East Village.

Formerly known as the Cooper Square Hotel, The Standard in the East Village is quite the attention-seeker. The sculptural 21-storey, glass architectural phenomenon towers over the Bowery, and commands views from the Empire State Building right down to the Brooklyn Bridge. The views can be taken in from most of its 145 bedrooms, making it all too easy to spend the whole time gawping out the windows, and entirely forget that there’s a whole city out there to discover.

Soho Grand.

With its West Broadway location, it’s safe to say that the Soho Grand is perfectly placed for some pretty incredible Manhattan views. To soak them up from the best vantage point, though, you can head up to the hotel's 16th floor and kick back with a cocktail in the beautiful Grand Bar and Lounge. If tearing yourself away from the rooftop and its views seems too much to bear, then you could always check in at one of the 10 impeccably designed new corner suites and leave the blinds open to watch the sunrise over Manhattan. Spectacular. Elle Uk.

Lemonlu Syrian Recycled Glass Lantern - Turquoise.











The Turquoise Sea.









Turquoise is the color of communication, self awareness and initiative. Turquoise has more to do with feeling and creative expression than with rational thought. Turquoise will make you feel happy and relaxed, for it combines the light blue of the sky with the invigorating green of the seas. Shades of cyan, aquamarine, and turquoise are livelier than peaceful true blues, but just as soothing. The vision of Caribbean waters will affirm this. These blues relax and refresh the body and mind. They encourage us to get out in the fresh air, sunshine, and water.

Variations of the Color Turquoise:

Aqua: Closer to green than blue, aqua is refreshing and uplifting. It is creative and light-hearted, yet strong and individual.

Aquamarine: Enhancing creativity and inspiration, the color aquamarine calms and balances the mind and the emotions.

Teal: A more sophisticated version of turquoise, teal signifies trustworthiness and reliability. It promotes spiritual advancement and commitment.
