With one-of-a-kind furnishings, paintings and sculptures created by Julian Schnabel, the Gramercy Park Hotel is more than a unique luxury property -- it?s a work of art. Set in one of the most coveted areas of Manhattan and bordering on New York City's only private park, the legendary hotel has, for almost nine decades, opened its doors to the world?s most creative spirits. It?s here, night after night, that international artists, literati, fashion designers and intellectuals play out their brilliant human narratives against a stunning backdrop. And that is exactly what Schnabel and German-born real estate developer and art collector Aby Rosen have envisioned.

With a lushly landscaped rooftop garden, al fresco dining and engagingly designed interior spaces, the hotel offers many evocative places in which to lounge. Danny Meyer?s Maialino serves Roman-style trattoria dishes; while Gramercy Terrace, a private roof club and landscaped garden, is suitable for casual dining, from breakfast to late-night dinners. Located on the lobby level, Rose Bar and Jade Bar ? two eclectically decorated and candlelit spaces ? both have a long list of classic and exotic cocktails, as well as all-day bar dining menus. For those who want to retreat to their quarters, in-room massages and spa services can easily be arranged. Outside the hotel is yet another work of art ? Gramercy Park, New York City?s only private park, to which guests of the hotel have exclusive access.
