Hotels Bill Gates Has Stayed At

No two of The Greenwich Hotel’s 86 rooms and suites are alike, a principle that gives this Tribeca address its individual character. Custom furnishings, Siberian oak floors, and handwoven rugs feature in the king rooms; courtyard-facing accommodations have French doors and Juliet balconies, while corner suites look toward the Hudson River. That domestic scale extends to the Drawing Room bar and open-air courtyard, both reserved exclusively for hotel guests, where meals come from Locanda Verde. Chef Andrew Carmellini’s Italian neighborhood taverna anchors the hotel’s dining life. Shibui Spa adds another dimension, with interiors centered on wood, water, and stone, a heated pool, and five treatment rooms.

Three restaurants sharing six Michelin stars make dining central to the identity of Four Seasons Hotel George V Paris. Christian Le Squer’s modern French cooking at Le Cinq anchors the lineup, while Le George takes an Italian-Mediterranean direction and L’Orangerie serves seasonal menus beneath a glass canopy overlooking the marble courtyard. The setting carries equal weight: a 1928 Art Deco landmark in the Golden Triangle, just off the Champs-Élysées. Inside, La Galerie’s collection of 19th-century art and the Parisian Suites’ classical or Empire-style works give the hotel a distinctly formal character. Some suites open onto terraces with Eiffel Tower views, adding a broader Paris panorama to a stay centered on art and the table.
