The Warwick Hotel New York combines the trifecta of Old World elegance, 4-star luxury and a prime location. Founded by publisher William Randolph Hearst in 1926, 426 comfortable accommodations boast marble bathrooms, and vibrant, 1930’s-style artwork decorates the walls of the on-site restaurant. Long popular among high-society guests and stars filming in the city, Hearst had this hotel built for sentimental reasons, and that romantic quality still twinkles in the air.
Once a favorite of James Dean, Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley and the Beatles, the Warwick New York Hotel is now patronized by the jet-set, visiting dignitaries and vacationers seeking the class and glamour of old New York. Guests are transported from tourist-jammed Sixth Avenue into a European-style lobby with marble floors, dark wood accents and a gilded, golden chandelier. For a quick taste of the old school life, head directly to Randolph’s Bar and Lounge, which has long been one of New York’s most beloved watering holes.
All the major amenities a guest would expect from upmarket NYC accommodations are present inside the Warwick, including a gym, currency exchange, baggage storage, laundry facilities and concierge service. Anyone planning special events or business while they’re in the Big Apple should take advantage of the meeting room, business center and banquet facilities.

Dining
Murals on 54
Murals on 54, the hotel’s refurbished dining room, features innovative continental cuisine with international influences, with a delectable menu consisting of mouth-watering fresh grilled dishes and a variety of fine seafood with strong French, Spanish and Mediterranean accents. The dining rooms’ fresh design accentuates the historic murals painted by Dean Cornwell, known as the “Dean of American Illustrators.” Cornwell was commissioned by William Randolph Hearst in 1937 to paint murals for The Raleigh Room, then the original restaurant inside this apartment hotel. These murals are now completely restored.
Randolph’s
Randolph’s, a newly expanded and refurbished restaurant and lounge, is designed more like a living room than a bar, with cushy sofas and armchairs and large windows overlooking the drama along Avenue of the Americas. There’s an express business lunch menu, an extensive wine list, and a bar staff with an encyclopedic knowledge of cocktails, from traditional to trendier-than-thou. Because RANDOLPH’S is situated amid the Midtown business and tourism district, it’s the perfect place for a relaxed business chat or a pre- or post-theater rendezvous.
Location
Warwick New York Hotel is ideally located within walking distance to many of Manhattan’s corporate headquarters and famous attractions including Central Park, Fifth Avenue and Madison Avenue shopping, Radio City, Times Square, Rockefeller Center, and world famous places of interest.
