Enter a space of elegance, where crystal chandeliers illuminate the surroundings and every detail reflects sophistication. More than a five-star escape, Baccarat Hotel New York presents a curated environment of art, comfort and distinguished experiences that resonate with guests.
The Baccarat Hotel New York exemplifies luxury with a unique flair. Located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just a short walk from Fifth Avenue and directly across from the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), this opulent property offers an experience rooted in over 250 years of French craftsmanship. Baccarat goes beyond mere accommodation to provide an immersive stay.
Upon arrival, guests find themselves in a stunning lobby that merges Parisian elegance with New York vibrancy. Majestic Baccarat chandeliers hang overhead, their brilliance reflected on polished marble floors, creating a warm ambience amidst plush velvet seating and mirrored accents. Every aspect of the hotel showcases the esteemed French crystal tradition, from the suite’s crystal stemware to the curated artworks adorning the walls.
What distinguishes Baccarat Hotel New York as a noteworthy destination is not only its aesthetic appeal but also the tailored experiences that enhance the stay.
Central to the Baccarat experience is personalised service. The concierge can assist guests and guide throughout their stay. Whether arranging last-minute tickets to a Broadway show, organising private shopping experiences on Madison Avenue, or coordinating a custom perfume-making session with a French scent artist, guests’ requests are thoughtfully addressed and executed.
For art lovers, the hotel offers opportunities for private viewings and guided tours in partnership with MoMA and other nearby galleries.
In keeping with its French heritage, Baccarat offers rituals that combine tradition with modern elegance. At The Bar, guests can enjoy cocktails served in Baccarat crystal tumblers while relaxing on rich velvet banquettes, all under the gentle illumination of a chandelier. The cocktail menu is as thoughtfully crafted as the décor, featuring signature martinis and vintage Champagne presented with flair.
A particular highlight is the afternoon tea experience in the Grand Salon. Guests can relish tiered trays filled with delicate pastries and savoury bites, accompanied by an extensive selection of rare teas served in Baccarat crystal, all within a refined setting reminiscent of European charm.
The rooms and suites at Baccarat Hotel are sanctuaries in themselves. Featuring expansive windows, and a soft palette of soft greys, creams and Champagne tones, the design evokes a sense of sophistication. Each room includes custom Baccarat crystal glassware, luxurious Italian linens and a minibar stocked with fine French delicacies.
What truly distinguishes these spaces is the meticulous attention to sensory details. Ambient lighting adapts intuitively to create the perfect atmosphere, and bath amenities are crafted by renowned Parisian perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. The in-room iPad not only controls lighting and temperature but can also arrange for room service, and book helicopter rides over the city.
For those seeking the utmost in luxury, the Baccarat Suite, spanning 162sqm, boasts panoramic views of the city, a butler’s pantry, and a spacious living area adorned with original artworks and couture-level furnishings.
Additionally, the Spa de La Mer, the first dedicated spa by the renowned skincare brand in the United States, offers a rejuvenating experience below street level. With a serene marble pool, comfortable daybeds and softly lit treatment rooms, spa services combine La Mer’s famous Miracle Broth™ with expert techniques for ultimate relaxation.
Fitness enthusiasts can take advantage of the 24-hour gym equipped with modern Technogym equipment, with options for private yoga or tailored personal training sessions available.
Baccarat Hotel New York epitomises a blend of beauty, service, and heritage in a way that feels both timeless and modern. Whether guests are visiting for art, romance or simple indulgence, they leave with lasting memories that reflect the essence of this unique destination.
