Are there hotels that are so exclusive they don't even have a sign on the outside?

Someone once told me that in major cities like NY for example, that there are some hotels that are so exclusive that they don't even advertise or have signs on the building. I was curious as to where celebrities & people like that stayed, or if a person has a ton of money, was there any particular ones they often pick, like the Plaza, Ritz-Carlton, Four Seasons, etc. I was naming well known ones, & that's when the person told me that there were some way more exclusive than that that regular people don't even know about or would probably just pass right by not even realizing it was a hotel. Is this true? If so, can you name any specific ones? I'd just be curious as to if this is true, how a place like that would compare with the well known 5-stars besides the whole privacy issue.

    The prestigious Group and Tour dept. handles the reservations that come in from the opaque websites such as travelocity, hotels.com, expedia, kayak, etc, as well as groups, tours, and high profile celebs. The New York Hilton is one of the oldest hotels in the city, and I have personally made reservations for Justin Bieber, Katy Perry, and the entire NASCAR banquet! I've talked with Miss Aretha Franklin on the phone, and made reservations for past Presidents at the New York Hilton.

    "From every U.S. president since John F. Kennedy to the Fab Four (in town for the Ed Sullivan Show)—New York Hilton Midtown has hosted a Who’s Who of dignitaries and celebrities since opening its doors in 1963. Built as a showcase for international guests, this legendary New York City hotel has established a legacy of hospitality, warmth and style. And it’s continuing its legacy into the 21st century, ensuring that every guest has an experience that exceeds expectations and creates memorable events" http://newyorkhiltonhotel.com/our-hotel/hotel-hist...

    EDIT: All hotels advertise. What you are referring to are private condominiums.
