What's your favorite thing...

...about your RH?


Aside from the incredible food and service at the Garden City Hotel, along with the gorgeous ambiance, I'd have to say that my favorite thing about the GCH is its rich and amazing history. Knowing that families like the Vanderbilts, Astors, Belmonts, Kennedys and Clintons have stayed here, and other famous people and politicians such as Andrea Bocelli, Sarah Jessica Parker, Rudy Giugliani and Gov. Pataki have gone to events here, means so much to me. The fact that Margaret Thatcher felt that this hotel was worthy of her staying here is humbling; and to know that Charles Lindbergh himself stayed here the night before his famous flight to Europe gives me butterflies. And although I am not an Obama fan, and was not an Obama supporter prior to the election, it is extraordinarily exciting to know that the New York State Democratic party took place at the GCH less than a year before our first black president was elected to office... and knowing that Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Joe Biden and John Edwards were all here plugging for themselves at the upcoming election makes me feel so proud.

I do not mean to brag at all - I am just amazed by the history of this place and I cannot wait to become a part of it.

Please share your own thoughts and senses of pride in your RHs as well!!!!
