Reach new highs at Gramercy Park Hotel’s revamped rooftop. The most stylish rooftop in Manhattan just got a facelift!
The most stylish rooftop in Manhattan just got a facelift. Perched on top of the iconic Gramercy Park Hotel on the 18th floor, Gramercy Terrace has reopened after eight weeks of renovations.
Mirroring the romance of the hotel interiors, glass lanterns hang amid the lush greenery of the roof garden trellises.
The atmosphere of this green oasis combines the Bohemian bustle of a Viennese coffeehouse with the charm of London’s private member’s clubs. The retractable glass roof, as well as a seamless indoor/outdoor seating area, makes the location the perfect getaway right in the heart of the city, year-round, come rain or shine.
Inspired by Julian Schnabel’s rich, bold take on the Renaissance for the hotel’s décor, the makeover has resulted in a lush and inviting setting at the terrace with just the right tinge of glamour. Iconic artworks by Damien Hirst and Andy Warhol share space with custom-made furniture and accents. Romantic touches like flowing white curtains make it the perfect setting for a dream destination wedding or a private celebration.
The Gramercy Terrace is an oasis in the heart of the pulsating metropolis, and offers one of the best views of Manhattan. This green sanctuary is like a private salon with the comfort of home. The location of the hotel lies adjacent to New York’s only private park, accessible only to residents and hotel guests.
