Description

A Trip for Two to New York, New York for Four Days & Three Nights at The London, An All-Suite Hotel, with Economy Class Air, Including Private Round Trip Airport Transfers and a Harlem Soul Food and Jazz Tour

The London NYC conjures an entirely unexpected, unparalleled luxury hotel encounter in the vibrant heart of Manhattan. Interiors by the renowned David Collins, dining by Michelin chef Gordon Ramsay, and ever-so-detailed, unobtrusive service, The London NYC succeeds in making glamour livable and city travel soothing. And you can forget the A Train - you’re in for a great night out in Harlem on your soul food and jazz tour!

With its unencumbered sense of luxury, marked by sophisticated ease and intuitive yet discreet service, The London NYC (previously the RIHGA Royal Hotel) is designed to engage discriminating travelers in a personal luxury experience. This midtown Manhattan hotel places you in the center of New York’s fabled cosmopolitan hub. Fifth Avenue shopping, Broadway theatres, Carnegie Hall, and Central Park are mere steps away. As Manhattan’s tallest and perhaps ’best-situated’ city hotel, The London NYC affords rare and stirring vista views of Central Park and the city skyline.

Relive the high-stepping, fun-loving nights of the 1920s as you tour the neighborhood and learn about Harlem’s role in the history of jazz. See the site of the original Cotton Club, where Duke Ellington and Lena Horne spent hours wowing crowds; pass the site of the Savoy Ballroom where Benny Goodman and Chick Webb fought it out during their Battle of the Bands, and where the Charleston, Lindy Hop and the Big Apple dances were firmly cemented into American culture. See the world-famous Apollo Theater, where Sarah Vaughan and Ella Fitzgerald won the popular Amateur Night, (which still boasts standing room only audiences every Wednesday night!) Pass by the Lincoln Theater, where Fats Waller passion underscored Vaudeville shows, and Minton’s Playhouse, where bebop was born and where Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, and Thelonious Monk started the tradition of jam sessions. You’ll also dine at The Queen of Soul Food?s legendary restaurant, Sylvia’s! Diners usually have to make reservations months in advance to get a taste of the famous succulent soul food!

- Round trip Economy Class air
- 4 days/3 nights accommodations at The London in a suite
- All room-related taxes
- Private round trip airport transfers including gratuities
