A Businessclass Verified Hotel
Steeped in over a century of Manhattan history, The Knickerbocker stands as a remarkable fusion of heritage and contemporary luxury. Originally debuting in 1906, this illustrious hotel was famed for its dazzling soirées and legendary guests, from titans of industry to luminaries of the arts. Its storied past includes an on-site tailor, a signature martini crafted by the original bartender, and a still-visible, though now sealed, private subway entrance. After a meticulous restoration and reopening in 2015, The Knickerbocker’s 16-story Beaux-Arts façade now houses a serene, minimalist retreat, offering a sanctuary from the vibrant energy of Times Square just steps away.
Perfectly positioned near Bryant Park and Broadway’s iconic theatres, the hotel features 330 impeccably designed guest rooms and suites. Among these are 27 Junior Suites and four Tribute Suites—each named in homage to legendary guests: the Caruso, Cohan, Martini, and Parrish. Accommodations range from the 28-square-metre Superior King to the expansive 111-square-metre Caruso Suite, which honors the famed tenor. Every room is thoughtfully appointed in calming, neutral palettes, with bespoke furnishings, soaring 3.7-metre ceilings, grand 2.4-metre doors, and panoramic 1.8-metre windows that bathe interiors in natural light. Guests enjoy refined touches such as custom oak finishes, plush SFERRA linens, Stearns & Foster mattresses, Ploh feather pillows, Diptyque bath amenities, and advanced smart lighting. The Tribute Suites evoke the sophistication of private New York residences, with the Caruso Suite featuring a Nespresso coffee system and Waterford Lismore crystal accents for an extra touch of exclusivity.
Culinary experiences at The Knickerbocker are equally distinguished. Begin your day at Jakes @ The Knick, where the vaulted ceilings set the stage for artisanal coffee and gourmet grab-and-go fare. Charlie Palmer @ The Knick offers a renowned progressive American menu, spotlighting seasonal, market-driven ingredients. For those seeking spectacular skyline views, the St. Cloud rooftop bar—named for a neighboring hotel absorbed into The Knickerbocker’s history—delivers expertly crafted cocktails and inventive small plates, accompanied by live DJ sets every Thursday through Saturday evening.
Wellness is prioritized with the Saints & Sinners Fitness Center, open around the clock, featuring a dedicated studio for yoga, Pilates, and group classes, alongside a state-of-the-art gym. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the innovative stretch cage and boxing system, curated in partnership with NBA All-Star Larry Johnson. The property is both pet-friendly (welcoming dogs up to 18 kg) and family-oriented, providing young guests with playful amenities, freshly baked cookies, and curated neighborhood activity suggestions for a memorable New York adventure.
