Hotel Description:- A favorite New York hideaway since William Randolph Hearst built it in 1927 for his Hollywood friends, the Warwick New York continues to be home to todays traveler with its convenient midtown location, intimate atmosphere, and personalized service. With the completion of a 20 million USD renovation in 1998, it has taken meticulous care in maintaining the classic details of the hotel while adding features specifically designed to the modern traveler. The hotel offers 359 oversized guestrooms, 67 handsomely appointed suites (several with terraces), non-smoking rooms, marble bathrooms, special amenities, high speed wireless internet, dual-line telephones, mini bars, in-room safes, business center, fitness club, valet service, 24 hour room service, and full meeting and banquet facilities. RANDOLPHÂ’S, a newly expanded and refurbished restaurant and lounge, is designed more like a living room than a bar, with cushy sofas and armchairs and large windows overlooking the drama along Avenue of the Americas. ThereÂ’s an express business lunch menu, an extensive wine list, and a bar staff with an encyclopedic knowledge of cocktails, from traditional to trendier-than-thou. The hotels historical past includes some of the more prominent celebrities that were long-time residents including Cary Grant (who resided in the hotel for over 12 years) and Mr. and Mrs. Irving Berlin. The Beatles stayed at The Warwick during their first trip to New York, and it was also home to Elvis Presley whenever he was in New York City for various appearances.
