Welcome to Haute Living Hotel Madness! Our curators have carefully selected the most luxurious hotels in New York, Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco. In our haute spin on March Madness, 16 top-rated hotels in each of the four markets will compete against each other within their own market. Once a winner is declared in each city, the regional champions will faceoff against each other, declaring a champion per coast in the Final Four round and finally crowning a national favorite. The single hotel remaining at the end of the tournament will be lauded with the distinction of being our ever-discerning readers’ favorite hotel in the nation, over all other entries.
Check out the Top NY Hotels going head-to-head in the fierce competition:
THE PLAZA
TRUMP SOHO
THE SURREY
THE MANDARIN ORIENTAL
THE CARLYLE
THE WALDORF-ASTORIA
STANDARD NYC
THE PENINSULA
THE FOUR SEASONS NEW YORK
GRAMERCY PARK HOTEL
THE MARK
HOTEL PLAZA ATHÉNÉE
DREAM DOWNTOWN
THE ST. REGIS NEW YORK
THE RITZ-CARLTON, CENTRAL PARK

Voting opens Thursday May 17. Check out HauteHotelMadness and support your favorite NY Hotel.
