Originally built as a steal structure to shuffle ferries traveling back and forth between Brooklyn, it still maintains its glorious beaux-arts facade post-reno, thanks to world-renowned architect Thierry Despont, with many of the original details of the iron and glass structure still at the forefront of the design.

Lavish suites inside the hotel include private balconies with phenomenal views overlooking the Brooklyn bridge and the Statue of Liberty, in addition to oversized showers, closets significantly bigger than those in most apartments in NYC, and innate lacquer furniture, nautical paint and fancy brass accents everywhere.

When it comes to amenities, Casa unsurprisingly doesn’t fall short there either, with a glorious spa and private gym, offering everything from cryotherapy to massage to personal training sessions. Upstairs on the fifth floor, though, is where you’ll find all the action. From the jazz cafe to the Cipriani signature restaurant (you’ll be stuffed by the end of the meal, but don’t pass on dessert—trust us), the scene is a sea of properly polished personas clinking Bellinis and nibbling on bites of house-made pasta. After dinner, grab a seat in the living room or—during summer months—on the gorgeous terrace with expansive views of the Brooklyn Bridge and the East River. (Everything on property is members-only, but hotel guests are granted access to all amenities.)
