The building opened as a silent-film cinema in 1929, drifted into a motor inn in the '60s, and was gutted in 2014 by Brooklyn design firm Workstead. The bones show everywhere — original beams, Shaker-restrained palette, hand-built furniture, books chosen by someone with taste. The restaurant is a proper restaurant. The lobby is a proper lobby. Nothing is trying too hard, which is exactly the point.
Who it's for: Design people who don't need to be told they're design people. Weekenders from Brooklyn.
Who it's not for: Anyone who wants a pool or a full spa. Nightlife seekers.
