Description

Located at the crossroads of Central Park and 5th Avenue, this internationally renowned Manhattan hotel is steps away from world class shopping.

The luxurious and spacious rooms at The Plaza boast modern bathrooms with 24-karat gold-plated fixtures and separate rain showers.

The Plaza Hotel is home to The Palm Court Restaurant, one of New York City's finest destinations for Afternoon Tea.

Amenities at The Plaza include exclusive boutiques and health and wellness facilities including a Guerlain Spa and 24-Hour Fitness Center.

A 5-star icon at the heart of Manhattan

Few hotels embody the spirit of New York quite like The Plaza. Open since the early 20th century, this 5-star institution has hosted generations of travellers drawn by its Beaux-Arts architecture, marble corridors and crystal chandeliers. Today, it remains a refined choice for LGBTQ+ guests looking for a stay where heritage and luxury are taken seriously.

The atmosphere blends formal grandeur with a warm, professional welcome. Couples celebrating an anniversary, friends planning a glamorous weekend or solo travellers in search of a memorable Manhattan address will find a discreet, inclusive environment in which to feel at ease.

Facing Central Park, steps from Fifth Avenue

The Plaza enjoys one of the most coveted locations in New York, on the southeastern corner of Central Park. Guests step out directly onto Grand Army Plaza, with the park's pathways, the Bethesda Terrace and the Sheep Meadow within easy reach for morning walks or afternoon strolls.

Fifth Avenue's flagship boutiques, the Museum of Modern Art and Broadway theatres are all within a short walk or quick taxi ride. The neighbourhood connects effortlessly to Chelsea, Hell's Kitchen and the West Village, three areas long associated with New York's vibrant LGBTQ+ scene, its bars, cabarets and cultural venues.

Refined services and signature spaces

Inside, The Plaza offers the kind of services expected from a true grand hotel: concierge assistance, in-room dining, fitness facilities and elegant lounges where guests can pause between outings. Depending on the room category, accommodations may feature park or city views, marble bathrooms and classic interiors that pay tribute to the building's heritage.

The hotel is also known for its dining and afternoon tea traditions, set in spaces that have become destinations in their own right. The overall experience favours quiet luxury, polished service and a strong sense of place.

An ideal stay for a refined New York escape

The Plaza suits travellers who want their Manhattan stay to feel like an event in itself. It works beautifully for a romantic city break, a cultural weekend built around museums and shows, or a special occasion such as an engagement, honeymoon or significant birthday. Business travellers attending events in Midtown will also appreciate its central position and discreet atmosphere.
