The Whitby Hotel
Manhattan, New York
“British maximalist showcase”
Condé Nast Traveler
Vibe
Kit Kemp's vivid British maximalism takes shape across art-filled drawing rooms, hanging woven baskets, and a 147-seat basement cinema.
“British maximalist showcase”
Kit Kemp's vivid British maximalist interiors, featuring floor-to-ceiling Crittall windows and bespoke embroidered headboards.
Generous marble bathrooms with RikRak amenities, evening turndown, and private terrace skyline suites.
An all-day pewter bar beneath hanging artisan baskets and a dedicated 147-seat screening room.
In Midtown Manhattan on 56th Street, two blocks from Central Park and steps from MoMA
Rooms
Steel Crittall windows frame Midtown views, while fabric-clad walls, bespoke embroidered headboards, and deep marble tubs anchor the interiors.
Backstory
Built from scratch in 2017, the sixteen-story limestone and steel tower marked Firmdale's second bold foray into Manhattan.
Eat & drink
The Whitby Bar serves seasonal fare beneath a long pewter counter, with traditional afternoon tea poured in the light-flooded Orangery.
The neighborhood
MoMA sits just down the block, with Fifth Avenue shopping and the open green lawns of Central Park two streets away.
“Two blocks from Central Park you'll find Kit Kemp at her playful best.”
