Peninsula New York Hotel Description

A 1905 Beaux Arts landmark, The Peninsula New York occupies a coveted Fifth Avenue location in Midtown Manhattan. In the grand foyer, a double staircase crowned by a glittering chandelier sweeps up to a palatial lobby. Just off the lobby are two sitting areas one with sumptuous silk wall coverings, the other with a trompe d oeil sky ceiling. Richly renovated throughout, the hotel combines Old World opulence with modern luxuries. The Peninsula New York received AAA s most prestigious Five-Diamond Award in 2000, which was awarded to only 59 hotels in North America.

Readers of Gourmet Magazine also rated the hotel the third best Hotel for Business in North America. Many of the Beaux Arts architectural features of this 1905 landmark formerly known as the Gotham building were retained. This luxury hotel pampers guests and features a tri-level health spa and a rooftop lounge with great city views.
