New York’s grande dame returns after a two-year, $400m restoration. The overhaul of the Henry Janeway Hardenbergh Beaux Arts masterpiece was overseen by design teams including Gal Nauer Architects, Costas Kondylis & Partners, Walter B Melvin Architects and Rani Ziss Architects. Details range from 24-carat gold-plated Sherle Wagner basins and fixtures (the only hotel in the world to have them) to white-gloved butler service in every room. Shoppers have access to six levels of high-end boutiques within the hotel.
