As Baz Lurhmann's lavish film adaptation of The Great Gatsby is released this May, pack your flapper dress and journey back in time to the Roaring Twenties on a New York City getaway with Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants.

Based on F Scott Fitzgerald's famous novel of the same name, The Great Gatsby dramatically depicts life in the Big Apple during the larger-than-life Jazz Age, and Kimpton's four centrally-located New York hotels place guests within easy reach of locations featured in the original novel. Stroll down bustling Wall Street, enjoy a day trip to Long Island (also the author's former home) or browse classical clothing at Brooks Brothers on Madison Avenue, which supplied the suits worn in the film.

After a day spent exploring the city, guests can indulge in a range of signature Kimpton perks including in-room spa services and the nightly complimentary Wine Hour, before heading to one of New York's elegant speakeasy-themed bars or extravagant jazz clubs.

Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants' four boutique hotels in New York include:

Stay in a 1920s Printing House at Kimpton's Ink48
Set in a former 1920s printing house in the vibrant Hell's Kitchen, Ink48 boasts sweeping views of the city and the Hudson River. Guests can sip cocktails at Press Lounge, the award-winning rooftop bar, and dine on farm-to-table cuisine at the hotel restaurant, PRINT. Beyond the hotel, browse Great Gatsby-esque vintage clothing at the local weekend flea market. Overnight accommodation in a guestroom during May starts from $249 (approx. £160) per room, per night.

Explore Midtown Manhattan at Kimpton's 70 park avenue
70 park avenue is located on the corner of Park Avenue and 38th Street in the historic Murray Hill neighbourhood, where brick facades conjure up images of "Old New York".
