If you dine out at restaurants frequently — especially in New York City — you’ve probably noticed a particular trend over the past few years: more and more dining establishments are opening in boutique hotels. This set up provides many advantages for both the hotel (attracting visitors) and the restaurant owners (little to no overhead costs).
