Item Description

Spend a weekend of ultimate luxury in Manhattan at The Kimberly Hotel, a boutique suite hotel located in the heart of midtown Manhattan's fashionable Upper East Side; plus win a gift certificate for a New York harbor sail aboard a beautiful tall ship.

Enjoy a two-night stay, Friday and Saturday, or Saturday and Sunday, in a beautifully appointed one bedroom suite for two. Well known for its spacious suites, The Kimberly stands out among the countless luxury hotels in Manhattan.

And enjoy the amazing sensation of a 90-minute cruise in New York Harbor in the beautiful and historic Clipper City, one of the largest sailing boats in operation today.

Offering European-style elegance and service, the 192-room Kimberly is conveniently located in the heart of Manhattan, steps away from the world-renowned shops on Madison, Fifth, and Park Avenues, and from Rockefeller Center. Its rooms are mostly one bedroom suites, and its staff is eager to make your stay enjoyable.

The one bedroom suites consist of a bedroom with either a king sized, queen sized or two double beds. They have a separate living room with a queen-sized pull-out sofa bed (comfortable enough for a child), two televisions, a dining area, an executive kitchenette (no gas stove), and in most cases, a balcony.

The Clipper City is the largest United States Coast Guard–certified sailing vessel in the United States. It is an exact reconstruction of a historic ship built in 1854 using original plans loaned from the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C.
