Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This grand 1904 landmark, distinctively clad in rich red brick and sculptured terra cotta, is a vibrant standout among New York City's historic hotels. Perfectly placed on 79th Street on the lovely Upper West Side, it's nestled between Riverside and Central Parks, steps from the iconic American Museum of Natural History.
- Light floods every inch of the gracious, contemporary event spaces. The Penthouse Salon, which boasts creamy neutral colors, large windows, and retractable skylights, opens onto the expansive Penthouse Terrace. Here, you can exchange vows and mingle with your loved ones amid the sparkling lights of the surrounding city.
- Newlyweds are treated to a complimentary wedding night stay in one of the hotel's plush guest rooms. The thoughtful lodgings pair European-inspired details like rich wood furnishings and gold accents with plenty of modern comforts, including individual climate control, Keurig coffee makers, and luxurious bath products.
