The Surrey

Hotel details

The Surrey, in New York City’s Upper East Side is a beautiful hotel with a long and grand tradition and is an inspired choice for guests visiting arguably the most vibrant and exciting city in the world. With beautiful views over the city’s skyline, courtesy of a Private Roof Garden, this inviting hotel offers superb service and discreet luxury.

The Surrey’s rooms and suites, like the rest of the hotel, blend modern design with a certain nostalgic styling, but also throw in a touch of New York eccentricity, such as hand-painted wardrobe armoires. Superior features here include a pillow menu, oversized glass-enclosed showers housed in enormous marble bathrooms and even open fireplaces and private outdoor terraces in some accommodation.

Guests are strongly recommended to visit the hotel’s delightful “Café Boulud” restaurant, a Michelin-starred establishment which serves delicious French-inspired cuisine made with seasonal, market-fresh ingredients and is justly the toast of New York dining circles. Adjacent to the restaurant is the “Bar Pleiades,” a chic watering hole that has become something of a pilgrimage to those who appreciate the creative cocktail menu.

Guests should also drop in on the Surrey’s “Cornelia” one of the city’s most original and opulent spas. Here weary travelers can vanquish daily stress with a rose-petal foot bath or a soothing aromatherapy session.

The Surrey’s position also offer visitors the opportunity to explore Central Park, which is adjacent to the hotel. This 843-acre oasis includes a winter ice skating rink, Central Park Zoo and of course, New York’s iconic horse drawn carriages.
