Essex House

Last night my sister came into town for work and stayed at the Essex House! The Essex House is one of those places that I have always wondered about since you see the cool, kind-of retro sign from all parts of Central Park (not to mention in the movies.) So when she told me she was staying there I jumped on the chance to go check it all out and see what the fuss is about. It's definitely a nice hotel with a great location and view (although you have to pay extra for the view) but I'm not sure it's worth the $500-$600 a night. However, they did have a pretty incredible gingerbread house in the lobby! If you've always wondered what it is like on the inside check out the pics...
