These days New York’s Financial District is more pleasure than business, as evidenced by The Wall Street Hotel. It may be housed in the Beaux Arts Tontine building where the stock exchange began, but its fun-loving feel and warm welcoming heart come from its owners’ charitable contributions and the Aboriginal artists whose work hangs around the hotel. And, with its classic cocktail know-how and a romantic lounge, it gets down to business, but with a saucy wink.

Our favourite rooms

Each room has the same spiffy styling, with perhaps an extra patterned rug, work of art or sleek bath tub in some of the suites, so it all comes down to the space you need and what you want to look at. The Corner Kings have the benefit of double-aspect views over the neighbourhood and East River, and we like the oversized Ottos Suite for their separate sitting room.

Spa

Whether you’re a never-skip-a-day gym rat or staring at the ceiling at 3am in a jetlagged haze, the 24-hour fitness centre, with Peloton bikes and Rogue weight-training kit, is a handy adrenaline outlet. Personal trainers can be arranged on request, and the hotel has a stash of maps marking out running routes and a partnership with local studio The Ness, for a selection of workouts.

If you’ve forgotten something, try the hotel’s pantry before you replace it – this handy little cubby has glasses-cleaning kits, sleep masks and more.

Children

Bring your baby bosses, they’ll be well-accommodated. Interconnecting rooms are available and the hotel has recommended babysitters, pack and plays, family games and more child-kowtowing tricks up their tailored sleeve.

Sustainability efforts

One of the world's pearling pioneers, the Paspaley family operates 20 farms along 2,500km of Australia's Kimberley coast. The precious wild treasures grow best in an unsullied environment, so their team of divers harvest by hand; this sustainable approach has earned the company third-party certification from noted conservation outfit the Marine Stewardship Council. And, under the company's philanthropic umbrella are around 50 charitable organisations; through donating proceeds, holding fundraisers and spreading the word, the Paspaleys have provided support to causes ranging from child protection to medical research, to community support, women's rights and art and culture foundations. The hotel's also partnered with the One Billion Oysters project, which aims to repopulate New York's harbour with molluscs and make it more biodiverse. Guests can choose to donate at check-out or support the project by buying a reusable water bottle or oyster-inspired gift. The hotel’s partnership with the APY Art Centre Collective brings aboriginal painting into the spotlight, and artists involved have created works for the hotel. Plus they recycle and have eliminated single-use plastics.

Location

Address
The Wall Street Hotel
88 Wall Street
New York City
10005
United States

The Wall Street Hotel is in New York's Financial District, where the East River sweeps into the Bay. From the upper floors you can see Lady Liberty hold her lamp aloft in the distance, and you're a short stroll from the Battery.

Planes

Fly into JFK and you're just a 30-minute drive from the hotel. Newark is slightly closer, around a 20-minute drive away. A cab will cost you around $75 one-way, and you can arrange a private or chauffeured car through the hotel.

Trains

Wall Street is the closest subway stop, less than a five-minute walk away. It's served by lines 2 and 3, which will take you all the way up to the Bronx and beyond and over to Brooklyn. If you're training it across the country, you'll likely pull into Grand Central or Penn Station, both a 15-minute drive from the hotel; the hotel can pick you up from $45 one-way.

Automobiles

Unless you can drive the Financial District in Mr Big style, with a chauffeur and a glossy black Merc, you'll probably do just fine using the subway, hopping in one of those iconic canary-yellow cabs or hitting the pavements – after all, New York is one of the US's more pedestrianised cities. If you do have your own ride, valet parking starts at $65 for 24 hours (larger vehicles may be charged more), and there are some self-parking places nearby.

Worth getting out of bed for

The Wall Street Hotel is all part of a reinvigoration of New York’s Financial District, making it less about the buck and more about the bang. And, this neighbourhood that covers the island’s lower crescent is actually one of its most historic. The Battery, to the west of the hotel, is a lush urban park with a farm, bike lanes, Dutch landscaper Piet Oudolf’s perennial gardens, meditative ‘labyrinth’ and the enchanting Seaglass Carousel. But, it’s also the jumping off point for seeing Ellis Island to tour the Immigration Museum and beacon to the huddled masses, the Statue of Liberty. 

South Street Seaport has served as NYC’s maritime hub for around 400 years, and there’s a museum that traces its timeline; a farmers’ market with take-out meals; a summer concert series, free work-out sessions and film screenings at Pier 17; and a mall with high-end wares (Sarah Jessica Parker’s shoe shop is here). Shoppers can spree at the Oculus, too. Or you can simply sit and stroll: Elevated Acre is a curious park and sometime beer garden set high up amid a sea of skyscrapers, and the East River Greenway has miles of boardwalk for head-clearing jaunts. 

Local restaurants

Big-ticket restaurants followed the finance bros; nowadays in FiDi, there are fewer of the latter, but the fine diners remain. Relocated from its TriBeCa home of 30 years in 2017, Nobu Downtown has the same feel and excellent Japanese-Peruvian fusion fare of its flagship, and it’s been the site of many wheelings and dealings. Carne Mare is a chophouse with a classic feel to its wood-lined interiors and curved leather banquettes. And, Felice 15 is Italian just like they made in the old country – try the meatballs (homemade, of course), house spinach and ricotta ravioli and for dessert, there may be other options, but tiramisu is really the only choice.

Local cafés

We don’t want to get caught up in the bun (dough?) fight over which New York pizzeria is the best, but we feel fairly confident in placing Adrienne’s Pizza Bar in at least the top five. These thin-crust pies are topped with the likes of prosciutto and potato, and broccoli rabe and sausage, but why not keep it simple by ordering the white (with ricotta and mozzarella) or the red (with crushed tomatoes, mozzarella and parmesan). And, Black Fox Coffee partners with roasters from all over the world to ensure your cup flows over (metaphorically) with a rich reviving brew. 

Local bars

Awards have been heaped on the Dead Rabbit for good reason; this slender three-storey bar is cosy and very cool, with a menu printed in comic-book form, rare whiskies to try, and cut-above mixed drinks. The bar at Harry’s Club feels more classically Manhattan, with its zig-zag marble floor and the gleaming black-walnut bar that runs 47 feet long. The cocktails are excellent, but it has its own well-stocked wine cellar too.

Anonymous review

By Mr & Mrs Smith

Every hotel featured is visited personally by members of our team, given the Smith seal of approval, and then anonymously reviewed. As soon as our reviewers have returned from this doesn’t-come-up-short hotel in New York’s Financial District and unpacked their neatly pressed and bagged suits and checked their investment portfolio, a full account of their chic city break will be with you. In the meantime, to whet your wanderlust, here's a quick peek inside Wall Street Hotel in the Financial District… 

The world truly is the Paspaley family’s oyster — after all, this Aussie dynasty has made their fortune prying open pinctada maximas to reach the plump pearls within. And now, they’re bringing New York’s Financial District out of its shell with The Wall Street Hotel, a cultured hub that finds the goodness in things like custom Aboriginal artwork, well-mixed cocktails, views of the non-stop action downtown, satiny linens pulled taut over bouncy beds, and so on, rather than greed.  

That’s not to say it’s not suited and booted, the historic Beaux Arts Tontine building it's housed in, where the New York Stock Exchange began way back in the 1700s, looks sharp, dressed with sumptuous linens, top tech, and polished wood and marble furnishings. But, it’s the kind of dapper where a button might come undone, hair might get ruffled and a jacket might be forgotten after a bit of a cocktail session. (Should this be your state of affairs, never fear — guests get complimentary shoeshines, and the concierge has the city’s best groomers and tailors on call). It’s all part of injecting some soul back into New York’s corporate neighbourhood, which — you’ll find out — has plenty going for it, with leafy outdoor spaces, boardwalks to tramp and a scintillating dining scene. This handsome stay has caught it on the cusp of reinvention and is itself a totem of New York’s past rekindled for its present — and, much like the Paspaley’s other branch of business  what’s within is something rare and special indeed.
