Deluxe Dipping in New York

A trusted confederate, fingers and toes still wrinkly from a long "business" trip to Manhattan professes allegiance to The Mercer Hotel, at 147 Mercer Street in SoHo. www.mercerhotel.com Most of the loft-style rooms--very New York--have tubs built for two. I also like hotels that offer floorplan schematics of their rooms. A big, deep bath is great, but where it sits can be a make-or-break point. Just look at the precious real estate devoted to the tub in the Mercer's Loft Studio rooms. Awesome. And the regular old Studio rooms have couple-ready soakers that are open to the bedroom, just behind some shutter doors. Awesomer.

Did I mention that this place commands King's Ransom prices? Sorry, you'll have to bleed the wallet.
