Nestled between the town houses of a quiet tree-lined street on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, The Hôtel Plaza Athénée treats guests to a comfortable home-away-from-home experience in its 150 rooms and suites. Elegantly appointed with European fabrics and rose aurora marble baths, some feature glass-enclosed terraces and outdoor balconies. All provide high-speed Internet access, CD players, in-room movies, minibars, safes, and 24-hour room and Clef d’Or concierge services.
Condé Nast Traveler recently recognized the hotel as one of the top in the world. Arabelle, the hotel’s fine-dining restaurant, also earns critical acclaim with its mix of Euro-Asian ambience, impeccable service, and modern American cuisine. The Bar Seine, which won “Best Spot for Romance” from the New York Post in 2004, serves such stylish cocktails as the Crystal Cosmopolitan and Bergdorf Blonde in an eclectic setting of plush velvets, animal prints, leather floors, and Asian art.
