Hotels in New York City have to know how to serve everyone from broke students to foreign royalty. That diverse market creates a huge gap between hotels. When you want to find truly luxurious accommodations, you can rely on these hotels to exceed your expectations.
The St. Regis New York
The St. Regis New York is a beautiful hotel with a great location near 5th Avenue’s shopping district. The chandeliers, opulent furniture, and well-dressed staff only hint at the hotel’s most important feature: guest services. The St. Regis New York is so luxurious that guests have access to 24-hour on call butlers. If a guest wants someone to draw a bath at 3 AM, the butler will come to perform the service happily. It’s like vacationing in a mansion. It’s definitely a top contender for being one of the coolest and most extravagant hotels in the Big Apple.

This hotel was made for people who expect a higher level of luxury. It’s hard to imagine that anyone ever feels underwhelmed by the Plaza.
