During your Newark vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Metropolitan Museum of Art
Home of blockbuster after blockbuster exhibition, the Metropolitan Museum of Art attracts some 5 million people a year, more than any other spot in New York City. And it's no wonder -- this place is magnificent. At 1.6 million square feet, this is the largest museum in the western hemisphere. Nearly all the world's cultures are on display through the ages -- from Egyptian mummies to ancient Greek statuary to Islamic carvings to Renaissance paintings to Native American masks to 20th-century decorative arts -- and masterpieces are the rule. You could go once a week for a lifetime and still find something new on each visit.So unless you plan on spending your entire vacation in the museum (some people do), you cannot see the entire collection. My recommendation is to give it a good day -- or better yet, 2 half days so you don't burn out. One good way to get an overview is to take advantage of the little-known Museum Highlights Tour, offered every day at various times throughout the day (usually between 10:15am and 3:15pm; tours also offered in Spanish, Italian, German, and Korean). Even some New Yorkers who've spent many hours in the museum could profit from this once-over. Visit the museum's website for a schedule of this and subject-specific walking tours (Old Master Paintings, American Period Rooms, Arts of China, Islamic Art, and so on); you can also get a schedule of the day's tours at the Visitor Services desk when you arrive. A daily schedule of Gallery Talks is available as well.The least overwhelming way to see the Met on your own is to pick up a map at the round desk in the entry hall and choose to concentrate on what you like, whether it's 17th-century paintings, American furniture, or the art of the South Pacific. Highlights include the American Wing's Garden Court, with its 19th-century sculpture; the terrific ground-level Costume Hall; and the Frank Lloyd Wright room. The beautifully renovated Roman and Greek galleries are overwhelming, but in a marvelous way, as are the collections of Byzantine Art and later Chinese art. The highlight of the astounding Egyptian collection is the Temple of Dendur, in a dramatic, purpose-built glass-walled gallery with Central Park views. The Greek Galleries, which at last fully realize McKim, Mead & White's grand neoclassical plans of 1917, and the Ancient Near East Galleries, are particularly of note. But it all depends on what your interests are. Special exhibitions can range from Orazio and Artemisia Gentileschi: Father and Daughter Painters in Baroque Italy to Earthly Bodies: Irving Penn's Nudes, 1949-50.In a response to the huge crowds, in 2003 the Met began opening "Holiday Mondays." On those Mondays, such as Memorial Day or Labor Day, the museum is open from 9:30am to 5:30pm.To purchase tickets for concerts and lectures, call tel. 212/570-3949 (Mon-Sat 9:30am-5pm). The museum contains several dining facilities, including a full-service restaurant serving Continental cuisine (tel. 212/570-3964 for reservations). The roof garden is worth visiting if you're here from spring to autumn, offering peaceful views over Central Park and the city.The Met's medieval collections are housed in Upper Manhattan at the Cloisters;.Evenings at the Met--On Friday and Saturday evenings, the Met remains open late not only for art viewing but also for cocktails in the Great Hall Balcony Bar (5-8pm) and classical music from a string ensemble. A slate of after-hours programs (gallery talks, walking tours, family programs) changes by the week; call for the current schedule. The restaurant stays open until 10pm (last reservation at 8:30pm), and dinner is usually accompanied by piano music.
Bateaux New York
The most elegant and romantic of New York's evening dinner cruises. Cruises are aboard the Celestial, designed to accommodate 300 guests with two suites, one dance floor, two outdoor strolling decks, a state-of-the-art sound system, and windows galore. Dinner is a three-course sit-down affair, with jackets and ties suggested for men, evening dresses for women. The food isn't what you'd get at Jean-Georges, but Bateaux (sister to egalitarian Spirit Cruises, below) offers a very nice supper club-style night on the town, and the views are fabulous. A live quartet entertains with jazz standards and pop vocal tunes.
Staten Island Ferry
Here's New York's best freebie -- especially if you just want to glimpse the Statue of Liberty and not climb her steps. You get an enthralling hour-long excursion (round-trip) into the world's biggest harbor. This is not strictly a sightseeing ride but commuter transportation to and from Staten Island. As a result, during business hours, you'll share the boat with working stiffs reading papers and drinking coffee inside, blissfully unaware of the sights outside.You, however, should go on deck and enjoy the busy harbor traffic. The old orange-and-green boats usually have open decks along the sides or at the bow and stern; try to catch one of these boats if you can, since the newer white boats don't have decks. Grab a seat on the right side of the boat for the best view. On the way out of Manhattan, you'll pass the Statue of Liberty (the boat comes closest to Lady Liberty on the way to Staten Island), Ellis Island, and from the left side of the boat, Governor's Island; you'll see the Verrazano Narrows Bridge spanning the distance from Brooklyn to Staten Island in the distance.When the boat arrives at St. George, Staten Island, if you are required to disembark, follow the boat-loading sign on your right as you get off; you'll circle around to the next loading dock, where there's usually another boat waiting to depart for Manhattan. The skyline views are simply awesome on the return trip. Well worth the time spent.
Sofitel New York
There are many fine hotels on the centrally located block of 44th Street between Fifth and Sixth avenues, but the newest (built in 2000) and best in this man's estimation is the soaring Sofitel. Upon entering the hotel and the warm, inviting lobby with check-in tucked off to the side, you wouldn't think you were entering a hotel that is less than 5 years old, which is one of the reasons why the hotel is so special. The designers have successfully melded modern, new world amenities with European old-world elegance. The rooms are spacious and ultra-comfortable, adorned with art from New York and Paris. The lighting is soft and romantic; the walls and windows soundproofed. Suites are extra-special, equipped with king beds, two televisions, and pocket doors separating the bedroom from a sitting room. Bathrooms in all rooms are magnificent, with separate showers and soaking tubs. The first entry into the New York market by the Accor Hotels & Resorts company of France, Sofitel reflects its heritage with a greeting of bonjour or bonsoir at reception; a unique gift shop with hard-to-find French products, including perfumes and cosmetics; and a stylish French restaurant called Gaby that bakes delicious croissants for breakfast.
Tribeca Grand Hotel
This sister to the Soho Grand is even more triumphant in merging high style, luxury comforts, and a hip downtown location. Set on a triangular plot just south of SoHo, the decidedly retro brick-and-cast-iron exterior blends perfectly with the surrounding neighborhood.Set along open atrium-facing corridors, the streamlined guest rooms boast generous built-in work space (with a Herman Miller Aeron chair) and state-of-the-art technology. But because the rooms face the atrium, noise levels can be a problem, so each room is equipped with a noise-dulling device. The rooms, however, definitely take a back seat to what's below: a dramatic eight-story atrium lobby, with its soaring proportions consumed by the very popular Church Lounge, an upscale lounge and restaurant. In 2003, the hotel opened a white-hot lounge called Sanctum, where cocktail expert Sasha Petraske creates magic behind the bar.Facilities: Restaurant and 2 lounges; fitness center; well-connected 24-hr. concierge; business center with complete workstations; 24-hr. room service; same-day laundry and dry-cleaning; CD libraries; screening room; coffee, tea, and cocoa bar on each floor. In room: A/C, TV/VCR with Internet access, fax/printer/copier, standard dataport and high-speed connectivity, minibar, hair dryer, safe, CD player, mini-TV in bathroom.
Trump International Hotel & Tower
From the outside, it's the prototypical, not very attractive Trump creation -- a tall, dark monolith, hovering over Columbus Circle and lower Central Park. But go inside and spend a night or two at the Trump International, experience services such as your own Trump Attache, a personal concierge who will provide comprehensive services (your wish is their command); take advantage of such first-class facilities as the 6,000-square-foot health club with lap pool and a full-service spa; or order room service from the hotel's signature restaurant, the four-star Jean Georges. Not only will you immediately dispel any prejudices you might have had toward The Donald, you might even begin to comprehend why someone would be willing to sell their soul for the chance to become the Master Builder's apprentice.Guest rooms are surprisingly understated, with high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, some with incredible views of Central Park and all with telescopes for taking in the view, and marble bathrooms with Jacuzzi tubs and sumptuous bathrooms. But if that's not enough -- it certainly was for me -- you also get two complimentary bottles of Trump water, complete with a picture of The Donald on each one. For a hotel this well run, you can forgive the man for his excesses.In room: A/C, TV/VCR w/pay movies and video games, fax/copier/printer, dataport and high-speed connectivity, minibar, coffeemaker, hair dryer, iron, laptop-size safe, DVD/CD player.
