It suits travellers who want English-style comfort and design two blocks from Central Park. Up to two dogs are welcome free of charge.

Why it's in the collection

Central Park is about a five-minute walk for off-leash mornings before 9am, and the quiet West 56th Street setting is a calm base between park walks.

Best suited for

Up to two dogs up to 40 lb (18 kg), and pets may not be left unattended in rooms.

Dogs may not be left unattended in rooms, so use the concierge dog-walking service if you dine at the hotel. Dogs only, no cats. Firmdale's general terms note pets are accepted at the hotel's discretion with a signed disclaimer.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
