Across from the majestic landmark Carnegie Hall is Park Hyatt New York, where Pritzker Prize–winning architect Christian de Portzamparc designed waves undulating up a glass skyscraper like notes floating through a concert hall. This is Billionaire’s Row, home to some of the world’s most expensive real estate, the Russian Tea Room, and Bergdorf Goodman. Now, guests can check into one of this strip’s most ultra luxurious new stays and be the only guests sleeping on Park Hyatt’s top floor, to the nightly tune of $50,000.
In honor of the flagship’s 10-year anniversary, the hotel paid a sum of $10 million to transform its spa into the hotel’s largest and most expensive suite. Appointed with three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two powder rooms, and two 140-square-foot balconies overlooking Central Park, The Manhattan Suite immerses its residents in the city, while offering a sanctuary on the 25th floor.
“We try and create a real residential feel. We want it to feel like a real New York City apartment,” Vincent de Croock, the Director of Sales and Marketing at Park Hyatt New York, tells AD. At 3,500-hundred-square feet, the Manhattan Suite is well over the size of the average American home and comes with its own concierge.
Upon entering, guests are welcomed by the sunny living and dining rooms, framed by 18-foot floor-to-ceiling windows, showcasing the cinematic cityscape. The interiors, helmed by New York–based studio Sawyer & Company, are an ode to understated sophistication and refined minimalism. “Designed as an elevated interpretation of New York residential living, [the suite] reflects the city’s effortless blend of bold character and refined elegance,” says Tracey Sawyer, founder and CEO of Sawyer & Company. “Subtle nods to the skyline’s architectural lines and textures are paired with rich, tactile materials, and carefully curated art and design.”
