Located just off Fifth Avenue in the heart of midtown Manhattan, Royalton's traditional exterior cleverly masks the Philippe Starck futuristic 'first hotel of the next century' that awaits you inside. Convenient to shopping, theater, museums and night life, the Royalton is two blocks from Grand Central Station, with easy access to and from the major airports.
No other hotel in the world can prepare you for what lies behind the rather unassuming entrance of 44 West 44th Street in Manhattan. The spectacular lobby of the chic Royalton, created by famous French designer Philippe Starck, features royal blue carpeting a block long, joining 43rd and 44th Streets in one extravagant sweep. A circular padded cocktail lounge, and the critically acclaimed restaurant '44' are serenely enveloped in this unique oasis in the middle of New York City. ------------
'In dem von Philippe Starck gestylten Hotel geht vor allem die Mode- und Film-Szene ein und aus. Die stromlinienförmigen Zimmer erinnern an Erste-Klasse-Kabinen eines Ozean-Dampfers. Im Hotel-Restaurant 44 konferieren die Chefredakteure von zeitgeist-Magazinen beim Power-Lunch.' (GEO special 1999)
