Is it weird to be absolutely fascinated by chemistry? I should say not, and at any rate, it certainly expounds the fascination factor of Midtown Manhattan’s Dylan Hotel. Housed inside the former Chemist’s Club building on 41st St, it still bears the organization’s name on the entryway as well as wonders of science-themed stained glass artwork, making for an intriguing architectural experience. Of course, hotels don’t get by on intriguing architectural experiences alone — designed with classic fabrics, ebony woods, and a nod to turn-of-the-century Beaux-Arts structure, the Dylan evokes the sort of cool and quiet calm that makes for a welcome respite from flashier boutique hotels, perfect for when your stay is less “weekend city romp” and more “working on that next Nobel Prize.”

Speaking of which, The Dylan Hotel has an excellent deal for those of you arriving as the weekend warriors are packing it in:

SUNDAY COMMUTE PACKAGE: Receive $25 off per night, of the best available rate being sold at time of booking when arriving on a Sunday.

• Enjoy complimentary high-speed and/or wireless internet access
• Complimentary in-coming and out going faxes

• 15%* off your restaurant bill for the Benjamin Steakhouse Restaurant.

Rates start at $179 USD as it is, and with this package things get even lower. If you’re in town for a long work-week, why not make your hard-earned nights a little more relaxed and stylish by booking yourself a stay at the Dylan Hotel?
