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.

Now, we know we are not VIP but rather we guessed that they had our address on file from when we stayed at the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Bowery+Hotel/local/220">Bowery Hotel</a> last summer. The "card" also included a brochure on the <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Lafayette+House+NYC/local/399">Lafayette House.</a> Is that hotel hurting for business?However, our holiday card was not as random as the gift they gave to another guest.

We liked what we saw. There's a definite Sean MacPherson-Eric Goode vibe, with antiques everywhere and that Victorian flavor. But the effect is sort of country-lodge-in-the-big-city, which would probably be nice to come home to after a day in New York. The overall effect--given that the hotel has only a few rooms--is that of a bed and breakfast, though as our tour guide pointed out, "without the breakfast." That's not a stumbling block for us, as the property is in easy striking distance of plenty of restaurants.
