About the New York Palace Hotel
In a city of world-class hotels, only one is a Palace.
The ultimate in urban luxury can be found beyond the courtyard gates of The New York Palace Hotel. With 809 rooms and 88 suites, The Palace is known for unparalleled splendor, spectacular views, sumptuous rooms and exquisite service. Located in the heart of Manhattan -- across the street from St. Patrick’s Cathedral and only steps from Rockefeller Center -- the world-renowned courtyard incorporates motifs from several 15th-century Italian cathedrals and has served as the entranceway to the historic Villard Mansion since 1882. Today, The New York Palace Hotel gracefully blends the landmark Villard Mansion with a contemporary 55-story tower that stands at 50th & Madison Avenue.
Following a comprehensive renovation of the entire hotel in 1997, today, the hotel offers guest accommodations designed into three distinct room products featuring the Main Hotel, The Executive Hotel and The Towers, all presenting breathtaking views of the city. In a class of their own, private dining and meeting facilities are known as the stunning 15,000 sq. ft. Villard Center. The Towers at The New York Palace, occupying the top 14 floors of the Hotel, serves as a “Palace Within A Palace.” Guests of The Towers enjoy a private reception area, exclusive high-speed elevators and personal Maitre D'Etage butler services. Atop The Towers, on floors 53-55, are four magnificent, Art-Deco inspired Triplex Specialty Suites. Averaging 5,000 square feet, the Triplex suites feature private elevators, double ceilings in the living rooms, and panoramic views of the city from spacious private terraces.
For our health-conscious travelers, The Palace offers a 7,000 sq. ft. Fitness Center, complete with inspirational views of St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Food connoisseurs worldwide are delighted with our two outstanding restaurants. Istana, our lobby restaurant evokes the ambiance of the sunny Mediterranean with cuisine both Continental and American. And in the south wing of the historic Villard Mansion lies New York's newest treasure, Gilt. This 51 seat restaurant and bar offers "A Taste of The Unexpected", featuring an extraordinary wine list with a stunning visual display of the great vintages of the world and an innovative contemporary menu by acclaimed chef Christopher Lee.
