The groundbreaking Royalton, located in the heart of midtown Manhattan, introduced the world to the concepts of “Hotel as Theatre” and the “Art of Lobby Socializing” – thereby revolutionizing the hotel industry. Royalton's uniquely beautiful Lobby, with its stage-set elegance that runs an entire city block, instantly became the place to see and be seen in New York.
Philippe Starck's elegantly minimal design evoked the feeling and romance of steamship travel –albeit in a totally modern way – where a cross-section of interesting world travelers gather to depart on a journey together. Royalton is still the choice of interesting people the world over.
Royalton’s three Penthouses, created by Roman and Williams, offer three bold and distinctly different design statements, yet each is a spacious and elegantly appointed incarnation of the chic Manhattan pied a terre. They feature plush, built-in window banquettes, beautiful curtains, and luxurious slate and mirrored tile bathrooms. Sumptuous five-foot round soaking tubs and working fireplaces with custom slate mantels reward moments indoors, while lavish terraces with stunning views of midtown Manhattan inspire a step outside. All three penthouses will be available for meetings and events.
