In a little-trafficked (by Manhattan standards) corner of the Upper East Side, Heirloom provides you with a haven to retreat, away from the bustle normally associated with the city. That calm feeling has clearly influenced the interior design as well, with certain nods to Scandinavia, and nice variety of houseplants. The kitchen’s a draw too, with a good set of appliances (although no food is provided). It’s set over two floors, with a terrace split over two levels as well, so even if you decide to use the futon, it feels like it’s big enough.

Yorkville is a neighbourhood in the upper right part of the Upper East Side. For years, it was a very popular area for college students and young professionals thanks to its many affordable apartment options but today there are lots of luxury apartment blocks going up.
