New York City has welcomed another new Kimpton — and it's the second to open this year alone. This time, though, it's on the Big Apple's glitzy Park Avenue.
Named the Kimpton Ashbel New York — Park Avenue, the IHG One Rewards-participating property is a townhouse-inspired hotel set in a 1928 building near Grand Central Station. A reimagining of the former 70 Park Avenue hotel, the Beaux-Arts building underwent a massive transformation to set the scene for Kimpton's trendy, approachable brand standards.
In the hotel, 205 guest rooms, including 14 family-friendly connecting rooms, offer a calm, homey respite from bustling Midtown. The rooms have a soft, natural-hued color palette that feels more like a chic NYC apartment than a hotel room in the heart of the city. Specialty suites, including a spa suite and a 1,300-square-foot penthouse with two living areas, four baths and two balconies, are available for elevated stays.
