Was this short film made by a Jerry Della Femina who was a very successful advertising guy? If not, what other Della Femina made it?

Yes, I was looking for the Rogers & Hart song too, having recently been to NY and editing my vids/pics into a piece. However, I was totally entranced by the camera work, and editing of this advert.

Sadly indicative of the spiritual devolution of NY. The piece, whose title alludes to Rogers & Hart song which the auteur may not even know, is a contradiction of the song itself--which celebrates--albeit sarcastically--the glories of downward mobility. The crassly fatuous narrative here celebrates the crassly fatuous contrary sensibility!

Was I in Paris or New York? I loved how this was done! This was an advertisement?! This was done in that old black and white film noir that I love. I want to go to this hotel. Damn! Did you just sell me?LOL!
