The Waldorf Astoria New York is an iconic hotel with refined service that defined a bygone era on Park Avenue. It has been closed since 2017 for extensive renovations and will reopen next year. Today, Hilton has announced that reservations for stays in 2025 will go online on December 10th for spring 2025 stays.
The meticulously crafted restoration effort has been led by renowned architects Skidmore, Owings, & Merrill as well as interior design from Pierre-Yves Rochon. The 375-room hotel will treat guests to a new era of luxury for New York City with a signature restaurant called Lex Yard (helmed by Chef Michael Anthony), the return of Peacock Alley known for its innovative cocktails and extravagant Sunday Brunch, 43,000 square feet of event space, and a 30,000-square-foot spa and fitness center that includes an outdoor terrace.
The renderings look gorgeous and I cannot wait to see this iconic hotel in person.
The hotel used to have 1,400 rooms, but after renovations it will offer 375 rooms and suites as well as 375 residences. Rooms will be large by NYC standards with the average one measuring 575 square feet. No word has been released on the average prices or award redemption rates.
Anthony’s Take: You can’t get much more iconic than this NYC landmark. It’s exciting that it will finally reopen in 2025 with a refreshed take on luxury.
