This Hotel Has the Best View in NYC. Period

I stayed at Virgin Hotels New York City last spring and honestly, it was awesome. The room felt super comfy and so stylish, with the best rooftop view! Felt so unreal.

The staff were nice, and the location made it easy to get around. I'd totally crash there again next time I get the chance.
