Room Request! The Chatwal

The Chatwal New York, a Luxury Collection Hotel[1] is a true haven in Manhattan’s bustling Midtown area. Its rooms and suites are elegantly appointed with Art Deco-style décor and furnishings, and the amenities are unmatched. Butler service, a chauffeured car and an indoor pool are just the beginning. Guests can enjoy treatments at the downstairs Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa and dine at top New York Chef Geoffrey Zakarian’s acclaimed restaurant The Lambs Club.

For guests new to the city (or ones familiar with it and looking for an adventure), The Luxury Collection has partnered with Leica to offer a unique package that includes suite accommodations, daily breakfast at The Lambs Club and access to a Leica T Camera that comes with a photography destination guide curated by New York-based Leica photographer Jillian Guyette. Guests can venture out to visit each suggested spot and document their jaunt on the high-tech camera. The package is available at Luxury Collection hotels in Shanghai, Paris and the United Arab Emirates, and it will roll out in San Francisco and Milan later this year.

Celebrity guests:

Several have The Chatwal, a Luxury Collection Hotel as their favorite hotel in the city, as we are located in the heart of Manhattan and in the most creative neighborhood of New York City. Bryant Park, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, Theater District, MOMA, Christie’s all a few blocks away, making The Chatwal, a Luxury Collection Hotel a favorite hotel for fashion, film, theater, music stars to stay. Our strict privacy policy precludes me from naming anyone, though.

Fun fact: 

The hotel’s house car, a Mercedes Benz in our brand color red, is nicknamed ‘The Chatwal Chariot.’ The Charioteer—AKA chauffeur—is at your disposal for rides around town. His bespoke uniform will take you on a journey of rich memories, keeping the legacy of traveling in luxury and opulence.
