A great choice for serious shoppers, the elegant Fitzgerald Manhattan Hotel on Lexington Avenue stands four blocks from Bloomingdale's, Saks Fifth Avenue and close to other world renown stores. Irish to the core, the Fitzgerald also is nifty for museum aficionados, being close to the Museum of Modern Art and other history laden museums. The Museum of Television and Radio, six blocks from the hotel, offers exhibits about news, documentary, comedy, sports and children's programming. Built in 1926, the boutique hotel also stands four blocks from 843 acre Central Park, where patrons can walk, jog, boat, bike, hike, play tennis and ride horses. Infused with European elegance and Irish flair, the Manhattan Fitzgerald is appointed with Waterford chandeliers, original moldings and a marble fireplace imported from Ireland, plush red sofas, gold striped armchairs and dark wood furnishings. For hungry guests, Fitzer's, the hotel's restaurant and pub, serves hearty Irish breakfasts of eggs, Irish bacon, sausage, grilled tomatoes and black and white pudding, and combines traditional Irish, continental and New American cuisines. In addition, the pub stays open late for guests to relax. This Manhattan Fitzpatrick also offers 24 hour room service
