What The Ritz-Carlton New York, Central Park actually is

The Ritz-Carlton sits on Central Park South between Fifth and Sixth Avenues, and the park-view rooms come with a telescope on a tripod by the window — a small touch that guests remember. Interiors are traditional and unhurried, in contrast to the newer glass towers a few blocks west.

The Club Level occupies the 22nd and 23rd floors with its own lounge and five daily food presentations, and the hotel's location means Central Park's southern entrances, Fifth Avenue shopping and Carnegie Hall are all within a few minutes on foot.

What stands out

  • 01 Telescopes in Central Park view rooms
  • 02 Club Level lounge with five daily food presentations
  • 03 Direct Central Park South frontage
