But we're already dreading the traveling (have you seen the <a href="http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/11/23/125/82595/travel/The+Top+Ten+Gross+Things+People+Do+On+Airplanes">gross things</a> people do on planes?), crazy family members, the in-laws, the overeating, the Black Friday crowds and the possibility that the creepy "Drummer Boy" song will be playing every time we walk into a Starbucks from now through December 26th.We want to get away and go where nobody knows our name. We want to go to hole up in a hotel room and take a relaxing bath and enjoy the view. Yup we're making our list of Hotel Bathtubs with Killer Views</a> and we're checking it twice, thrice and juliana 2009-11-23T17:10:55-05:00 New York: Sean MacPherson Moves On From 'Gossip Girl'; Tries Modeling Instead http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/10/22/173137/79 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/seanmacjcrew.jpg" class="top"> "Sometimes...when I get <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Katherine_Gallagher#Catchphrases">real nervous</a>..."It looks like a cameo on Gossip Girl wasn't enough for <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/sean macpherson">Sean MacPherson</a>. <a href="http://twitter.com/boweryhotelnyc/statuses/5079434724">The Bowery Hotel's Twitter</a> tipped us off to the spread that Sean Mac did for the J. Crew Catalog. J. Crew, people. Clothes you can buy off the rack! How bourgeois! The feature is available <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Navigation/realguyartist.jsp">online here</a> and it features Sean looking tough in a leather jacket and answering questions about his life. We learn how he likes his martinis (extra dry with three olives) and that he always carries his passport and a credit card wherever he goes. (Let's hope he has better passport-handling skills than <a href="http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/10/20/9278/9589/travel/%27Twilight%27s%27+Kristen+Stewart+Demonstrates+How+Not+To+Handle+A+Passport">Kristen Stewart.</a>) We also learn this juliana 2009-10-22T17:36:37-05:00 New York: Chuck Bass Takes On Sean MacPherson on 'Gossip Girl' http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/9/28/223247/069 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/seanmacgossipgirl.jpg" class="top">We know that <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/sean macpherson">Sean Macpherson</a> was traveling in Bhuktan last week but we sincerely hope he made it back stateside to watch himself on the last night's episode of "Gossip Girl."In the episode, Sean played himself--a New York City hotelier--who Chuck Bass approaches with his nightclub plans (and tries to retrieve a Patrick McMullan photo of Sean.) Interestingly, Sean's hotel on the show was <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Empire+Hotel/ian/125729">The Empire Hotel</a> but we all know that he's the man behind <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Bowery+Hotel/local/220">The Bowery</a>, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Maritime+Hotel/local/13">The Maritime</a>, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Lafayette+House+NYC/local/399">The Lafayette House</a> and <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/The+Jane+Hotel/local/923">The Jane Hotel</a> as well as the restaurant, the Waverly Inn.

Surprised? We werent. The master of cool details selects all of the vintage volumes and magazines himself, shopping up a storm at New Yorks favorite used-book haunt, The Strand. Unlike other hotels, which rotate their libraries, the Bowerys collection stays the same, and most of the books stick to a New York theme. But as is becoming abundantly clear, MacPhersons real passion is Hollywood. As the New York Times <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/2/16/111141/504/hotels/NYT_Learns_The_Jane_Will_Be_Like_a_Mansion_in_Decline_">gushed</a> earlier this year, MacPherson has quite the thing for movies like The Shining and A Clockwork Orange (both influences on the Bowery MsRebecca 2009-07-29T16:09:12-05:00 40.7259662 -73.991826 New York: More Places to Drink Outdoors in NYC: The Bowery Hotel http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2009/6/17/184237/622 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6929/boweryoutside.jpg" class="top"> Once the New York weather shows it can truly correct its behavior and be sunshine-y for, like, more than 15 minutes at a time, we'll be happy to go out and do our drankin' on the patios, rooftops and courtyards across the city (er, but not the streets, kids. Open container laws! Don't forget 'em!) We hit up Gemma at <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Bowery+Hotel/local/220">The Bowery</a> for lunch today, and were pleasantly surprised to walk out past the (totally music-free and relaxation-friendly!) lobby to find this lovely little outdoor seating area. Yes, that's a cemetery just beyond the fence there but ain't no thang. It's...quiet.
