New York: Get Ready For a Luxury Hotel Boom
International regard is something New York has never lacked, though it might have flagged during the dark days of the pandemic. (“New York City is dead forever,” proclaimed a 2020 headline in the New York Post; one account found New York’s tourism industry lost 89,000 jobs in 2020.) But reports of the Big Apple’s demise appear greatly exaggerated. This winter and spring, a number of new hotels will welcome visitors. The Ritz-Carlton is opening a new property, built from the ground up and in one of the neighborhoods tallest buildings. Rooms offer sweeping views of the Empire State Building for those facing uptown or the Statue of Liberty downtown. Michelin-starred chef José Andres will helm the hotel’s lounge, in-room dining, and rooftop bar, where guests can drink 500 feet in the air. Also joining the neighborhood? London-based member’s club and hotel The Ned, which will take over the former NoMad hotel.
TriBeCa is readying for The Warren Street Hotel (from the group behind Soho’s Crosby) and Hotel Barrière Le Fouquet’s, a Paris and St. Barth’s favorite, has plans to open sometime in 2022. They plan to bring the French art de vivre to the historic district with a state of the art Cannes screening room and rooftop terrace.
Midtown recently welcomed Park Lane, complete with Yabu Pushelberg furniture, and the glamorous Aman will open on 57th Street in coming months. (Their jazz club is sure to be a destination for New Yorkers and visitors alike.) Meanwhile, The Theater District sees the arrival of the luxurious Civilian, and The Ace just opened another buzzy outpost in Brooklyn. To paraphrase Dorothy Parker, New York is nothing if not hopeful.
