60 Thompson
Too, too cool. SoHo's newest offering has 100 rooms sporting "wooden headboards set against leather-paneled walls" and "cerused" wooden cabinets. It also has DVD players, high-speed Internet access, cable television, bath products by Philosophy, a "low-slung" sofa and chair in every room and... oh yeah, daily newspaper. Suites have balconies overlooking Thomspon Street, so you can watch the pop stars and fashion mavens walk through the front door.

The Bryant Park
One of Manhattan's newest offerings (February, 2001) in the oh-so-chic-ly redone American Radiator Building, this is probably the hippest hotel in midtown. At least for the moment. And with good reason: It's across from its namesake, Bryant Park, home of the twice-annual Fashion Week; it has pioneered high-tech check-in and butler services, it has an award-winning bar and restaurant, elegant guestrooms, and a screening room booked by celebs and producers who want an intimate but trendy locale in which to throw their parties. Stars, mini-stars, models and model wannabes stay here, or at least visit The Cellar bar. Just a few steps west of Fifth Avenue and the New York City Library, it commands an excellent location.

Chambers
Billed as the "uptown hotel with the downtown attitude," this chic Fifth Avenue boutique hotel stresses the art scene of SoHo, TriBeCa and the Village. Each of the 77 rooms and suites is an emerging artists' gallery; original piantings and prints are featured throughout the hotel. Walnut floors, platform beds, Turkish rugs and cashmere throws are just some of the decor aspects, while the bathrooms include deep soaking tubs and rain showerheads. Some of the suites have terraces.

Library Hotel
One of the most delightful hotels in New York, with room numbers based on the Dewey Decimal System and reading material to match. The building itself is a gem, and the hotel has three separate livingrooms, or lounges, each with a different atmosphere. All day snacks, complimentary wine and cheese, a deluxe Continental breakfast and cappuccino whenever you want it help make this a special place. The location is perfect, too.

The Mercer
"Hip" doesn't even begin to describe this 75-guestroom SoHo icon; it's so hip that if you didn't know it was there, you wouldn't know it was there. Its minimalist loft-style rooms and suites exemplify NY chic; the bar/restaurant Mercer Kitchen is the see-and-be-seen spot for the new Gen-X Brat Packers, and real honest-to-God celebs choose to stay here for the anonymity and the location in the heart of eclectic SoHo.

The Muse
This boutique hotel in Times Square has pleasant rooms in trendy decor. It's quiet, which is nice, but we find the staff a bit too stiff and pretentious. On the other hand, it's pet friendly, in a great location, and reasonably priced for its class. Each room has an ISDN line, there's a second floor fitness center, and its restaurant, District, has garnered great reviews.

Paramount
Ian Schraeger and Philippe Starck's whimsical collaboration makes the 610 teeny rooms in this hotel liveable and fun. The lobby alone offers enough interest to keep you amazed for days, with its off-kilter stairway and roses growing out of the marble walls. A cool restaurant and nightclub round out the scene, but who would have guessed that this über-chic hostellery would also embrace kids? Welcome gifts, treats, games and videos are all available for the young 'uns. We like that.

Time
Trendy, hip and chic. Ok, there are lots of those in NYC, so what sets this one apart? URBAN hip, chic styling, with minimalist furnishings in bright colors. The rooms are smallish, the building dates from the 1920s but the contemporary and vibrant design, upscale amenities and 18-hour room service makes a real difference.
