Wall Street Hotel – Penthouse

88 Wall St, New York, NY 10005

Atop the rooftops of Wall Street, you and other execs will enjoy panoramic views of the city, including Lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, and the East River. A far cry from the selfish arrogance of Oliver Stone’s “Wall Street,” The Wall Street Hotel is now a heartily vibrant place that is just steps from the newly popular and redesigned Seaport as well as the most historic and fascinating buildings and legends that New York has to offer. It welcomes artists and architects as well as stockbrokers and hedge-funders. It is a place that subscribes to Confucius’s saying: “Behave toward everyone as if receiving a great guest.”
