    Library Hotel – Inspiriting Passion for Books

    First Hotel of its kind to introduce the Dewey Decimal System (DDC), the Library Hotel in New York City offers its guests an organized collection of over 6,000 volumes of books. Used in more than 200000 libraries in 135 countries, Dewey Decimal System is an immaculate solution to set up the Hotel’s vast compendium of books. This system divides the books in libraries into ten main classes in a logical fashion, which can be further subdivided.

    The Library Hotel honors each of the 10 categories of the DDC in each of its 10 guestroom floors. Moreover, 60 rooms are devoted to the collection of books as well as art exploring distinct topics. Each room is assigned with a six digits number carrying a typical significance. For instance, Room No. 300.001 – the first three digits indicate the floor that is 3rd floor of the hotel and the last digits the size of bed, here .001 is a Queen bed. Actually Room no. 300.001 signifies Communication room, 300.002 is Political Science room, 300.003 is Economics room, 300.004 is World Culture room, 300.005 is Money and 300.006 is Law. The rooms with .002 and .005 have one queen bed, room .003 has one single bed, .004 has one full bed and .006 a king bed.

    This is not all, the Library hotel offers its guests with several complementary amenities that includes the Poetry Garden, the Writers’ Den, DVD library stacked with top 100 films of the 20th century of the American Film Institute, 24 hour computer stations with printers, complimentary passes to NY Sports Club and more.
