During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Socrates Sculpture Park
This former riverside landfill is now the best exhibition space for large-scale outdoor sculpture in the city. No velvet ropes and motion sensors here -- interaction with the artwork is encouraged. Well worth a look, especially on a lovely day. Check the website for the current exhibition schedule -- or just let yourself be happily surprised.
Wave Hill
Formerly a private estate with panoramic views of the Hudson River and the Palisades, Wave Hill has, at various times in its history, been home to a British U.N. ambassador as well as Mark Twain and Theodore Roosevelt. Set in a stunningly bucolic neighborhood that doesn't look anything like you'd expect from the Bronx, its 28 gorgeous acres were bequeathed to the city of New York for use as a public garden that is now one of the most beautiful spots in the city. It's a wonderful place to commune with nature, both along wooded paths and in beautifully manicured herb and flower gardens, where all of the plants are clearly labeled by careful horticulturists. Benches are positioned throughout the property for quiet contemplation and spectacular views. A great spot for taking in the Hudson River vibe without having to rent a car and travel to Westchester to visit the Rockefeller estate. Programs range from horticulture and environmental education, landscape history and forestry to dance performances and concerts. A new Visitor and Horticultural Center designed by Robert A. M. Stern is currently under construction, and should make this hidden jewel shine even brighter.
Brooklyn Botanic Garden
Just down the street from the Brooklyn Museum of Art (below) is the most popular botanic garden in the city. This peaceful 52-acre sanctuary is at its most spectacular in May, when thousands of deep pink blossoms of cherry trees are abloom. Well worth seeing is the spectacular Cranford Rose Garden, one of the largest and finest in the country; the Shakespeare Garden, an English garden featuring plants mentioned in his writings; a Children's Garden; the Osborne Garden, a 3-acre formal garden; the Fragrance Garden, designed for the blind but appreciated by all noses; and the extraordinary Japanese Hill-and-Pond Garden. The renowned C. V. Starr Bonsai Museum is home to the world's oldest and largest collection of bonsai, while the impressive $2.5 million Steinhardt Conservatory holds the garden's extensive indoor plant collection.
Hotel Newton
Located on the burgeoning northern extreme of the Upper West Side, the Newton, unlike many of its peers, doesn't scream "budget" at every turn. As you enter the pretty lobby, you're greeted by a uniformed staff that's attentive and professional. The rooms are generally large, with good, firm beds, a work desk, and a sizable new bathroom, plus roomy closets in most (a few of the cheapest have wall racks only). Some are big enough to accommodate families, with two doubles or two queen beds. The suites feature two queen beds in the bedroom, a sofa in the sitting room, plus niceties such as microwave, minifridge, and iron, making them well worth the few extra dollars. The bigger rooms and suites have been upgraded with cherrywood furnishings, but even the older laminated furniture is much nicer than I usually see in this price range. The AAA-approved hotel is impeccably kept. The 96th Street express subway stop is just a block away, providing convenient access to the rest of the city, and the Key West Diner next door is a favorite for huge, cheap breakfasts.
Four Seasons Hotel New York
Designed by überarchitect I. M. Pei in 1993, this modernist tower of honey-hued limestone rises 52 stories, making it the city's tallest hotel and providing hundreds of rooms with a view. As soon as you enter the soaring lobby, with its marble floors and backlit onyx ceiling, you'll immediately know this place is special. From the stellar service, only surpassed by the Ritz-Carlton hotels and Trump International, to the fantastic facilities, including a new, luxurious spa, this hotel is a stunner.The completely soundproofed guest rooms are among the city's largest, averaging 600 square feet. Each is beautifully furnished in an understated but plush contemporary style and has an entrance foyer, a sitting area, an oversize oval desk with two leather chairs, custom built-ins, coffered ceilings, and massive windows (50% of which boast Central Park views). About two dozen of the priciest rooms also have terraces. The mammoth Florentine marble bathrooms have soaking tubs that fill in 60 seconds, and separate showers with pressure controls. Other special touches include goose-down pillows, Frette-made beds, oversize bath towels, and cushy robes, plus multidisk CD players in suites. But at these prices, why charge extra for Internet access?Facilities: Restaurant; bar with evening entertainment; lobby lounge for afternoon tea and light fare; 5,000-sq.-ft. spa and fitness center with whirlpool, steam, and sauna; children's program; concierge; courtesy limo; business center with secretarial services; 24-hr. room service; in-room massage; babysitting; dry cleaning/laundry service with 1-hr. pressing.
The Kimberly
Surprisingly good rates on suites here mean that you could be standing on your private balcony overlooking Manhattan for a lot less than you'd pay for a cell-like room in many other Midtown hotels. Most New Yorkers don't have it this good: These are full apartments with dining areas; living rooms with Oriental rugs; full-size, fully equipped kitchens complete with china and cookware; marble bathrooms; tons of closet space; and private unfurnished balconies (in all but eight suites) -- it's all part of the package. The executive suites have a larger living space, but the standard one-bedrooms are just fine for most. The two-bedroom suites each have two bathrooms; you can choose between a configuration that adjoins the bedrooms or puts them at opposite ends of the apartment (great for couples traveling together). The 21 regular rooms are handsome and comfortable, too, with extra-nice bathrooms with deep tubs. Additional amenities include two-line phones and plush robes. The hotel may not be the most stylish place in town, but it's done in an attractive traditional style that's cozy and comfortable, and everything is in very good condition.A unique perk is complimentary boarding of a 75-foot yacht for a 3-hour sunset cruise (weekends May-Oct, weather permitting).Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 bars; free access to fabulous New York Health & Racquet Club, with pool, classes, racquetball courts, and indoor golf; concierge; room service (6am-11pm); in-room massage; babysitting; dry cleaning/laundry service; executive-level rooms.
