What Park Lane New York actually is
Park Lane sits on Central Park South and reopened after a comprehensive renovation that stripped out the dated interiors and replaced them with something considerably more confident. The building is tall and narrow, which means a high proportion of rooms get a real view rather than a light well.
The signature space is Darling, the bar on the forty-seventh floor, which looks straight up the length of Central Park — one of the better views available to the public in the city. Room rates here typically sit below the Ritz-Carlton and Essex House a few doors away while offering broadly the same address and outlook.
What stands out
- 01 Darling rooftop bar with a full-length Central Park view
- 02 High proportion of park-facing rooms for the price
- 03 Comprehensively renovated interiors
- 04 Central Park South address at below-neighbour rates
