Plaza Athenee New York

My recent trip took me to New York. We knew we were off to a good start when checking into the PLAZA ATHENEE.

The upper east side of Manhattan is undoubtedly the most fashionable part of Manhattan and this hotel is discreetly located right in a tree lined, residential street, off  of Madison Avenue and 1.5 blocks off 5^th Avenue. With just 142 guest rooms and suites, the hotel was our perfect venue for relaxing in it/s charming small lobby bar after a long day of exploring the city and before heading out for the city’s vibrant theater and nightlife.

We would recommend to request one of their suites with a glass enclosed atrium terrace as well as an outdoor balcony, with the glittering lights of the Manhattan skyline as the perfect backdrop . To sum it up – European grandeur with the intimacy of a boutique hotel.
