After
almost three years of extensive renovations at a staggering cost of
US$400 million, New York’s most famous hotel finally reopens its
doors.
The Plaza, which is now a National Historic landmark, first
opened in 1907.
With 282 rooms and 182 private residences, each
furnished in Louis XV French décor style, the six-star Plaza
Hotel at the crossroads between Fifth Avenue and Central Park
continues to re-define luxury since its doors open to receive guests
a century ago.
A wireless touch-screen panel in each room connects
you to the hotel’s concierge services while also serving as a
remote for the room’s ambience.
The hotel’s iconic Palm Court,
Oak Room and Bar, and the famous Grand Ballroom – scene of author
Truman Capote’s masked extravaganza, the Black & White Ball in
1966 – have also been painstakingly restored to their former
glories.
