Royalton Hotel New York

The iconic Royalton Hotel New York newly re-opened in 2007 to once again establish itself as a crossroads for world travelers and the New York elite. The redesign by Roman and Williams incorporates cast glass, raw steel and brass furnishings along with suede upholstery and leather-covered walls with an African tribal art motif. The centerpiece of the lobby is a floor-to-ceiling castbronze fireplace that was hand forged. Its twenty-foot screen once belonged to the façade of a building in France.

Accommodations come in 13 different configurations, including Lofts, Suites, and Deluxe or Superior guest rooms. Standard Rooms with a queen bed and work space cover 250 square feet, while the Penthouse "A" occupies 1,700 square feet and comes with a king-size bedroom, a large open balcony, a Roman tub, a fireplace, and separate kitchen, dining and entertainment areas.

The Royalton's amenities include a 4th-floor fitness center open to guests 24/7. The hotel's famous Round Bar has been reinvented as Bar 44, offering not only bar and pre-theater menus but also full dining service for breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus music by a DJ in the evenings. The Royalton Hotel New York is located near Manhattan's theater district at 44 West 44th Street, New York, New York 10036.
