Our Inspector's Highlights
- A recent overhaul of the lobby and lounge area has brought a new elegance and glamour to the neighborhood.
- The centerpiece of the lobby — two oversized paintings by contemporary American artist Alex Katz — breathes life and color into the glossy space.
- The artist’s work is prominently featured throughout the New York City hotel as well as in guest room corridors and even in some of the rooms and suites.
- The lobby’s dramatic winding staircase and avant-garde floral arrangements complement the chic vibe.
Things to Know
- Look for the new Chuan Spa Health + Wellness, offering an indulgent international-influenced spa menu with Chinese medicine tenets.
- Catering to how things are done in NYC, the fitness center is open 24 hours a day and you can book a trainer or yoga instructor to help you with your workout.
- And while New Yorkers espouse the efficiency of the subway system, nothing beats a ride in the Midtown Manhattan hotel’s house car, available on a first-come first-served basis.
The Rooms
- Guest rooms are well-appointed and quite spacious by Manhattan standards (they average of about 750 square feet). And with sweeping views of the city’s skyline through large windows (many are floor-to-ceiling), the hotel takes full advantage of its position.
- Room décor is simple and chic, with white linens, gray accents and Italian walnut furniture. Luxury amenities like Swedish Duxiana beds, Italian linens, flat-screen TVs, Nespresso machines, robes and slippers are standard here.
- Suites have complimentary bottled water and sodas, full kitchenettes with Miele appliances, including washers and dryers (a New York novelty, indeed).
- Marble bathrooms are bigger than many New York City apartments, with lavish accoutrements like in-mirror televisions, deep-soaking tubs and rain showers.
The Restaurant
- The Langham is home to acclaimed chef Michael White’s Ai Fiori.
- The restaurant features cutting-edge Mediterranean fare inspired by the French and Italian Riviera.
- A sophisticated but not stuffy space is filled with pretty floral arrangements (fittingly, as ai fiori is Italian for “among flowers”).
- Enjoy dishes such as risotto with butternut squash and cranberry beans or pan-seared sea scallops, cauliflower purée with farro and walnuts.
