Searching for Chuck Bass

Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf Outside the Empire Hotel
Ok so that wasn't exactly the "official" reason for my recent stay at the Empire Hotel in New York City, but it was definitely in the back of my mind the second I walked into that familiar Gossip Girl lobby. (I may or may not have made multiple mentions of my GG obsession to the concierge...)

In any event, I was recently at a conference in New York and found myself staying at primetime TV's chicest Manhattan hotel. The moment I stepped out of my town car and looked up at the building, I saw the famous "Hotel Empire" red lights shining from the rooftop. I channeled my inner Blair Waldorf and made my way up to my room, (which was amazing and more like a small apartment than a hotel room might I add).

The hotel was lovely and I had a fantastic stay. I was able to pop by the rooftop bar for a glass of bubbles and was pleasantly surprised to see how packed it was! Great music and so many beautiful people. I will definitely be back at the Empire next season... I mean... next time I'm in New York.
