The Michelangelo occupies 179 rooms carved from Manhattan's 1926 Taft Hotel, a 22-story Spanish Renaissance pile by H. Craig Severance that once held 1,250 rooms. Starhotels bought the hotel portion for $42 million in 1992 and gave it an Italian name and neoclassical mood; today even a Studio King stretches to about 495 square feet, an indulgence one block north of Times Square.
