One of the newer luxury hotels in New York, it’s a tad less expensive than many of its bouji rivals further uptown. Overlooking Madison Square Park and a short walk from Greenwich Village, the location is quite unbeatable. The Eleven Madison Park restaurant is close by (it was hailed as the world’s finest restaurant in 2017). It’s located in the 1909 Met Life clocktower, a 41-story building that was once the tallest on earth.

Ian Schrager redesign has brought the hotel right up to date. It has an air of classic luxury with a modern twist. The colour scheme is neutral. It calls to mind the minimalist design you’ll see in the Aegean and Nordic country: think lightly accented colours and clean lines. The New York EDITION is a great choice if you like minimalist design. If you’d like something more decedent you could consider the far from subtle Pierre Hotel.

In the United States, LGBTQ+ rights have made significant strides over the years, with nationwide legal protections against discrimination in areas such as employment, housing, and public accommodations. Same-sex marriage was legalized across the country in 2015, ensuring that same-sex couples have the same legal rights as heterosexual couples, including the right to adopt children. Social attitudes toward LGBTQ+ individuals are generally tolerant, especially in larger cities and progressive states, making the country an increasingly welcoming destination for LGBTQ+ travelers.

However, challenges persist, particularly regarding transgender rights, which face opposition in some states. There are ongoing debates over the balance between religious freedom and anti-discrimination protections, with some regions passing laws that impact the rights of LGBTQ+ individuals, particularly in areas like healthcare and education. Despite these challenges, the United States remains a key battleground for LGBTQ+ rights, with advocacy groups and legal battles playing a critical role in shaping the evolving landscape.

LGBTQ+ travelers can generally expect a positive experience in cities such as New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Chicago, where vibrant LGBTQ+ communities and events like Pride parades celebrate diversity and inclusion. While legal protections vary from state to state, many parts of the country offer a safe and affirming environment for LGBTQ+ individuals to live, work, and travel freely.

"The thing about the USA is that it's just so diverse. It doesn't matter what you're looking for, you can find it in the USA. I personally love San Francisco because it's hotels are arty and luxurious at the same time."
