Royalton Hotel

The groundbreaking Royalton, located in the heart of midtown Manhattan, introduced the world to the concepts of "Hotel as Theatre" and the "Art of Lobby Socializing" - thereby revolutionising the hotel industry. Royalton's uniquely beautiful Lobby, with its stage-set elegance that runs an entire city block, instantly became the place to see and be seen in New York.

Philippe Starck's elegantly minimal design evoked the feeling and romance of steamship travel - albeit in a totally modern way - where a cross-section of interesting world travelers gather to depart on a journey together. Royalton is still the interesting peoples choice the world over.

The 205 oversize rooms and suites, many with working fireplaces, feature custom Starck-designed furniture, ultra-comfortable built-in banquettes running the entire width of the room, silk curtains, crisp white linens, and sumptuous slate bathrooms - many with enormous five-foot round tubs.

With their elegant, streamlined furnishings, sophisticated and subdued palette and modern take on the glamour of transoceanic travel, the rooms' are reminiscent of a posh stateroom on a luxury liner.

Royalton is centrally located in the heart of midtown Manhattan, steps from Fifth Avenue shopping, the Broadway Theater District and Times Square, and nightlife, and convenient to the downtown shopping and the Wall Street business district.
