The slender, shiny Millenium Hilton skyscraper in Lower Manhattan faces the rebuilding site of the former World Trade Center and stands close to the World Financial Center and Wall Street. The 55-story hotel is five miles from La Guardia Airport and is within 10 blocks of the South Street Seaport, Battery Park's famous restaurants and shopping, and funky Greenwich Village, SoHo and Tribeca. Resurrected in 2003, the hotel includes a rosewood- paneled lobby and a 20-by-40 foot heated indoor pool with floor-to-ceiling windows framing exquisite views of 18th-century St. Paul's Chapel. The rosewood-and-cream lobby holds a display of the hotel's salvaged American flag from September 11, 2001. Recreation enthusiasts are close to a driving range and facilities for bowling, hiking, horseback riding, squash, racquetball and tennis.
Hungry guests can relish the regional American cuisine and seafood straight from the market at the hotel's Church & Dey, and sip cocktails and coffee throughout the day at the velvety Liquid Assets bar with its burgundy banquettes, gold-velvet chairs and muted lighting. The hotel also provides a fully stocked business center, fitness room, massage therapy in the spa or guestrooms, concierges, 24-hour room service, limos and Town cars, Internet access, foreign currency exchange, dry cleaning, and supervised child-care activities.
With residential ambience, guestrooms feature 42-inch plasma televisions, plush "Beds by Hilton," movies, Internet access, laptop safes and a window view.
From guestroom windows, guests at the Millenium Hilton can capture exquisite views of Ground Zero, the Statue of Liberty and New York Harbor.
