Check out our growing collection of door-to-view hotel video tours

We dropped into Kimpton's The Muse Hotel yesterday to get a preview of its upcoming renovation. Slated to start June 1, the project will proceed floor-by-floor until mid-fall. (Assuming, of course, the renovations go according to schedule. General Manager Thomas Mathes tells us there shouldn't be any hiccups. Somehow, we actually believe him.) So what's new in the rooms?

Lots. The rooms, which are pretty big for Manhattan anyway, will stay big but get all new decor. We're talking lucite and chrome lamps, stylish easy chairs, mirrors and porno set headboards. You'll also find flat panel TVs, cordless phones, sleek bathrooms. WiFi--as at all Kimpton Hotels--is only free to loyalty program members. (Though it's free to enroll, do we need the hassle?)

Starting August 1, the hotel will offer up a weekend package in its balcony suites. The package will include dinner and drinks served on the balcony, butler services, massages and accomodations for $1,500. After the jump, a look at the current Muse rooms.
