What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler and AFAR.
It’s got the vibrant mid-century Modernist-inspired style you expect from Thompson, as well as all the comforts required of a high-end boutique hotel.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Carnegie Hall sits just down 56th Street, with Central Park and Fifth Avenue shopping only three blocks north.
The rooms
Ribbed wood walls and navy leather beds define the rooms, while Upper Stories suites frame sweeping views over Central Park.
The spa
Subterranean treatment rooms host restorative massages and facials, set steps from an on-site blowout salon.
Gym and sauna
The Underground fitness center has Peloton bikes and strength gear, beside a slatted timber sauna.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Parker's pours classic cocktails beneath the skylight, and a velvet curtain hides the counter-service Burger Joint.
All are subtly and swankily music-themed in the spirit of the hotel’s strong music history… and art works focusing on instruments placed throughout the property were curated by The Met.
How it began
Originally opened in 1981 as Le Parker Méridien, the tower was reimagined with mid-century styling that honors neighboring Carnegie Hall.
