The Fifth Avenue Hotel

Magnificent!!!! I would like to put this word about 70 more times down, but I know I would be accused of redundancy and then some, but honestly at the risk of multiple hyperboles? This is, for me personally, right now, the nicest hotel currently in New York City. I could sum it all up to the magnificence of the hotel itself, which is so gorgeous and lovely with just a beautiful humorous eccentric angle, I could sum it up to say that within the confines of this incredible building is also arguably the greatest cocktail bar in New York City right now-this being Portrait Bar (a note? For all of the temples of fine dining that we have here? This BESTS even Cafe Carmellini for FOOD. These are some exceptionally decadent folks over here!! Debauched even! That Au Poivre Hot Dog/ SHOULD taste like pure marketing, and instead it’s a work of art and you almost feel depressed when it’s gone!). Honestly? What makes the fifth Avenue hotel so unbelievable is the incredible staff. I have never in my life, witnessed such an incredible bunch of people all working together and seemingly having a really good time doing it!!! As such? The Fifth Avenue hotel is a whole VIBE! There is something inspiring, especially for myself who is an artist, watching people who care so much about the experience and each other that it rubs off on all of the customers as something beyond great service it makes you feel like you got invited to the party of the century and they are just here to make sure that you party all the way down!!!! Thank you if anybody should read this from the hotel. You made my 20 year anniversary with my husband beyond special beyond catered to you were absolutely so wonderful. We actually felt bad having to leave this morning. We already miss you. Guess we will have to come back soon ! To anybody reading this who trusts my opinion? If you are not from New York City, and you are looking for a beautiful, luxurious hotel that is perfectly situated and will make you feel less like a traveler and more like a resident ? This should be your first call.

Gorgeous. Stunning. Creative. Cozy. Room Service Food stunningly delicious. Bed was so comfy. Great location with lots of architectural interesting walks. Close to Penn Station. Perfume: ugh. everywhere. suffocating. Management wants to be more hip than we are used to (priority given to youngsters looking for love in the bar over the folks who are staying there). No quiet place to have friends join for cocktails/snacks. Stay in a deluxe junior suite.

This hotel is a masterpiece of design, with a whimsical, Wes Anderson-esque aesthetic that blends elegance, art, and charm effortlessly. Every corner of the space feels thoughtfully curated, making it not just a place to stay but a destination in itself. The staff are beyond welcoming—genuinely warm, attentive, and always going the extra mile to make your stay feel personal and seamless. Whether it was the concierge making thoughtful recommendations, the café staff ensuring every breakfast was perfect, or the housekeeping team adding special touches to the room, the service was 5-star in every sense. The food is a standout—delicious, healthy, and beautifully presented. Whether you're enjoying breakfast or dinner at Café Carmelini or indulging in a light snack, every meal feels intentional and elevated. The hotel's bar is a true gem—swanky, intimate, and effortlessly cool, it's clearly a coveted spot among those in the know. Perfect for a pre-dinner cocktail or a nightcap, the ambiance is just as impeccable as the drinks. I’ve stayed at many hotels in New York, but The Fifth Avenue Hotel stands out as one of the best—a perfect blend of style, service, and sophistication. If you’re looking for a memorable, one-of-a-kind stay in the city, this is it. Can’t wait to return!

Enchanting! I'm a fan of designer Martin Brudnizki. Staff incredibly friendly. I was celebrating a big birthday, and they treated me nightly. Smallest rooms are tight (in older section anyway). The Portrait Bar and Cafe Carmellini are outragously good in all ways.

Great experience - we hosted a private event in the Conservatory and it was spectacular. The staff was attentive and professional and the cuisine excellent. We stayed overnight at the hotel in a delightful suite, and had a lovely brunch the next morning in the restaurant. Everything was spotless and comfortable, and the staff was great. Definitely recommend!
