Morgans Hotel Group

If you like good design and don't know about the Morgans Hotel Group (Hudson Hotels and others) check out the video tour on their new website. Better yet, next time you're in NYC, make reservations to stay at one of their properties. Marcel Wanders had a hand in some of the new interiors and his great talent comes through loud and clear.
