Gurney’s Montauk酒店翻新项目

The hotel had its heyday in the 80s, but had seen better days 20 years later. A new multi-million dollar renovation is reviving Gurney’s for a new generation.

Love the herringbone in the bathroom-but while it looks like wood, it’s actually a stone tile.

Here are the new rooms and the roomy decks to take in the view.
