If you guessed Morgans Hotel, of Ian Schrager-fame in New York, you win! (What's that you ask about a prize? Well, it's our undying love and affection for being so darn hotel smart.)

The hotel is currently closed but is taking reservations for September 2 and beyond.  
Morgans original designer, Andrée Putman, is returning to kinda-sorta revamp its black-and-white interior, by adding--wait for it--graduations of black, white and gray tones, according to The New York Times. Sounds cutting edge!

But then again, why mess with a design past guests enjoy, though admit needed a little updating? We guess that's where the gray comes in.
