The Peninsula New York is ideally located on Fifth Avenue
and 55th Street, in the heart of New York City's most
prestigious shopping, cultural, and business neighborhood,
in Mid-town Manhattan. A 23-story, 1905 landmark building,
The Peninsula New York reopened on 1st November 1998,
following a US$ 45 million renovation. Many of the hotel's
original Beaux Arts architectural features, designed by Hiss
and Weekes, have been retained throughout The Peninsula New
York. The result is one of modern accents on old-world
elegance.
The Peninsula New York features 185 spacious and luxurious
guest rooms and 54 suites, decorated in a classic,
contemporary style with art nouveau accents. Specifically
designed for the needs of the executive traveler, all of the
hotel rooms incorporate state-of-the-art technology, with an
electronic system that allows guests to control their
environment with the touch of a fingertip.
The hotel's high-tech Peninsula Spa and Health Club offers
hotel guests a broad range of facilities in a serene
atmosphere with spectacular views of Manhattan. The
Peninsula New York's restaurants and bars are favorites
among the New York business crowd and include the hotel's
fine dining restaurant, Fives, and the popular Pen-Top Bar &
Terrace with stunning views of New York.
A prestigious New York hotel, The Peninsula New York also
provides an elegant setting for hosting high-level meetings
and upscale private events. The Peninsula New York has
received the AAA Five-Diamond Award for four consecutive
years, and was voted the third best "Hotel for Business" in
all of North America, by readers of Gourmet magazine.
