DISCOUNT NEW YORK HOTELS & TRAVEL GUIDE  

Gramercy Park Hotel


3 stars category - Broadway - United States of America (USA)

 
  Introduction


Located in the heart of New York's most fashionable and delightful neighorhoods, our hotel has served an international clientele since the day we opened our doors more than 75 years ago.

The Hotel is located on and overlooking 'magical' Gramercy Park, New York City's only private park, built in 1831. As a guest of the Hotel, a special key will unlock the Park's gate for you and your guests.

The legendary Gramercy Park Hotel, overlooking Gramercy Park, is the only hotel on 'magical' Gramercy Park where our guests can visit and frolic in the Park after our Doorman, using a Special Key, opens the Park's gate for them.

The Gramercy Park Hotel is where an eleven-year-old President to be John F. Kennedy lived with his parents, Rose and Joseph P. Kennedy. It is the Hotel where a 27 year old Humphrey Bogart married Helen Mencken on the Roof Garden, and where Babe Ruth was politely asked, on more than one occasion, to leave our famous bar.

  Restaurants & Dining

 

Gramercy Park Bar & High Bar

While you are with us, visit our bar on Gramercy Park to relax and unwind. You may want to drop in before dinner and the Broadway show you might want to attend while you are in town. Later you might stop by for a nightcap. For more than seventy years, visitors have thought of the Gramercy Park Hotel's cozy Lounge as their living room.

Why Famous? And famous our Bar really is, having been selected by actor/director Cameron Crowe as one of the most important film shooting locations for his Oscar winning film 'Almost Famous.' Also seen at our Bar in the past have been Sting, Matt Dillon, Deborah Harry, The Clash, Peter O'Toole, Ethan Hawke, and Uma Thurman.

Enjoy cocktails, accompanied by priceless breathtaking romantic skyline views of Manhattan, at the High Bar. All this while seated in our beautiful landscaped Penthouse Roof Garden which also overlooks magical Gramercy Park. This is the very same Penthouse Roof Garden where a 27-year-old Humphrey Bogart married Helen Mencken in 1926, the year our Hotel opened. Dine on an excellent Caesar salad, a lobster cocktail or a truly jumbo shrimp cocktail (just four, but like two quarter pounders), salmon tartar, New York's best char-grilled Niman Ranch baby back ribs, or a vegetarian's delight in an oversized char-grilled Portobello mushroom and goat cheese salad, followed by a classic root beer float.
