Grand Suite, 1 Bedroom, Patio (Garden)

The suite has a city view and a private patio overlooking landmarked Lower Manhattan. It sits inside the Battery Maritime Building, a Beaux-Arts ferry terminal completed in 1909, at the southern tip of Manhattan.

The bedroom has one king bed dressed in Frette Italian sheets with premium, hypo-allergenic bedding. The suite sleeps up to three guests, with a complimentary rollaway/extra bed for the third person.

The suite measures 751 sq. ft. and is laid out as a one-bedroom suite with its own private patio. The bedroom has blackout drapes, and air conditioning and heating let you set the temperature to suit you.

The private bathroom has an accessible bathtub with a grab bar and a wheelchair-accessible vanity. It is stocked with bathrobes, slippers, a hair dryer, designer toiletries, shampoo and soap. Towels are changed every two days, and toothbrush and toothpaste are available on request.

The suite has several accessibility features: braille and raised signage, closed-captioned TV, a doorbell and phone notification, a visual fire alarm, and the accessible bathtub and vanity.

You get a 55-inch smart TV with cable channels and pay movies, and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. Turndown service is provided each evening, and bed linens are refreshed every two days.

Guests staying in the suite can use the Cipriani restaurant and bar, the Living Room and the Jazz Café. The Jazz Café opens Tuesday to Saturday from 7PM to 1AM. The Casa Cipriani Wellness spa runs 11am to 8pm daily and needs advance reservations for treatments. Hotel guests also have key-card access to the fitness centre 24 hours a day.

Casa Cipriani is at 10 South Street, about a 3-minute walk from Battery Park and roughly 10 minutes from Wall Street. Governors Island ferries leave from the same building, and the Staten Island Ferry's Whitehall Terminal is next door. The Whitehall Street-South Ferry subway station is about 170 m away. Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island ferries depart from Battery Park.

Check-in starts at 3:00 PM and check-out is before noon. Bring photo identification and a credit card. The hotel enforces an elegant dress code: ripped jeans, joggers, sweatpants and hooded sweatshirts are never permitted, and athletic sneakers are allowed only until noon. There is no on-site parking, though valet parking nearby costs roughly $100 per night. The hotel does not arrange airport transfers, and LaGuardia is about a 23 to 26 minute drive.
