Wayfarer exclusive: inside Hilton’s luxurious Conrad New York Midtown hotel
151 W 54th Street, New York, New York, 10019, USA
The Conrad New York Midtown is one of the city’s only all-suite hotels and following a major renovation in 2019, it has an interior akin to luxurious Manhattan homes rather than classic hotel rooms.
Major highlights of the hotel are the penthouse, a two-story, two-bedroom suite which features wrap-around views of Central Park and Manhattan, a fireplace and an interior inspired soon-to-reopen Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), and Dabble, an impressive new signature dining and cocktail destination from Executive Chef Sani Hebaj that’s set to be popular which visitors and locals alike.
To find out more about the all-suite hotel, WAYFARER Host and Editor-In-Chief, James Gregory Wilkinson, spoke exclusively to Conrad New York Midtown General Manager, Boris Guerov.
Conrad New York Midtown has an exceptional team delivering extraordinary service to every guest, every time. The hotel’s spacious and modern design aligns with the Conrad brand to perfectly meet guests’ expectation for luxury travel.
Guests experience much more than simply a hotel stay. Conrad New York Midtown offers a unique blend of a perfect location, sophisticated design, curated activities and unsurpassed service that combine for an unforgettable New York experience.
With separate sleeping and living areas, including a dedicated table or workspace, the hotel’s expansive suites serve as our guests’ home away from home. Amazing views of skyscrapers, Central Park and the Hudson River are on display from each of our 54 floors.
Our lobby level restaurant, Dabble, has an elegant bar where the mixology team crafts classic and specialty cocktails for any occasion. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Dabble’s chefs create choices for every palate. The in-house sommelier assists guests with perfect wine pairings before topping off their evening with a decadent dessert.
The hotel’s showstopper suite, the Atrium, has a separate bedroom and a living room with stunning glass windows on three walls and the ceiling definitely has the x-factor. But even that is outdone by our 2-story, 2-bedroom Penthouse with marble baths, fireplace, full dining area and views that take your breath away. Our entry level suites start at a spacious 700 square feet.
Of course, since we are just a few blocks away, Central Park is a must-see and a break from the hustle and bustle of New York City. Also within a short walking distance are all the iconic arts and theatre venues, so guests can pack in a Broadway show, an exhibit at the MoMa and all the shops on 5th Avenue.
