There are the usual suspects and then there is the Hot List which are new stylish hotels that Conde Naste has found. Here are some:

Well there are the usual hotels like the Grand Hyatt (the pool!) or the harder to find Beijing Shangri-la, but Conde Naste found an interesting spot called the Hotel Cote Cour which is a 14-room inn in an old neighborhood. Pretty cheap too.

And if there is time for a weekend trip to Nanjing, then there is the Kayumanis Nanjing which is super expensive at $500/night, but like the Kayumanis in Bali, looks awful nice.

And on the Upper West side, which I really like as a place to hang out, there is The Empire, but Conde Naste also notes there is 6 Columbus which is next to the Mandarin Oriental and in a 1920 building. Really great rooms and there is a rooftop bar too. Expensive like all of NYC at $450, but there are bargains given the recession. On promotion King rooms are $280!

Or for a cool stop downtown, in the West Village, there is the Bowery Hotel
