THE RITZ-CARLTON NEW YORK

NEW YORK CITY, NY

Inspired by New York City’s glamour and the sights and sounds of the world’s most iconic parks, The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park announced the completion of its full hotel reawakening.

Thoughtfully weaving

New York City’s style and spirit through each space, the reimagined luxury hotel has debuted a new social dining experience with Contour, as well as added wellness and fitness areas. These offerings complement the hotel’s redesigned Club Lounge, La Prairie Spa, and guest rooms and suites.

“The transformation our hotel has seen over the course of this past year truly redefines luxury in Manhattan,” said Winfred van Workum, general manager of The RitzCarlton New York, Central Park. “Combining a bold vision and inspiration with our legendary service, the vibrant energy of the city and Central Park shines through each of the spaces and provides a renewed oasis in the heart of New York City.”

Upon entering the hotel, a new all-day gastro lounge draws you into the heart of the lobby’s transformation, where the rhythm builds through three distinct rooms for a day to night cocktail and culinary experience. Each space flows in sophisticated yet playful design of plush banquettes, marble accents, New York-inspired artwork, and a variety of seating arrangements – secluded and sociable. Connecting the two lounge areas is a vibrant bar where accents of marble, bronze, and gold are complemented by a bold Matisse sketch that stretches across the ceiling, a lending inspiration for Contour’s namesake.

An emphasis is placed on the artisanal beverage experience at this New York City lounge with impressive handcrafted classic cocktails and seasonal infusions. Striking presentations provide a moment of wonder including the shareable Honey Ginger Infusion, aged for up to seven days in honeycomb, grapefruit, and ginger. Along with its all-day menu, Contour offers breakfast daily in a comfortable setting for a quick meal to start the day or a stylish atmosphere for a morning meeting.

In addition to the exciting design transformations, new moments have been created through the reawakening that is aimed at immersing guests in the essence of New York City life and the world of luxury that The Ritz-Carlton is renowned for.
