Location
Known for its gracious service, the iconic Fifth Avenue hotel overlooking the emerald expanse of Central Park will re-open on June 1 following a meticulous $100 million renovation to create new Hotel Rooms and bath interiors.
Overview

One of New York's true grande-dame hotels, The Pierre, A Taj Hotel occupies a coveted Upper East Side address overlooking Central Park. Since 1930, the Pierre has hosted a bevy of well-heeled and famous guests and residents, including Elizabeth Taylor, Coco Chanel, and Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Opulent public spaces feature hand-painted murals, Italian marble, and ornate details. A $100 million renovation in 2009 updated the hotel's classic elegance with modern comforts, but the renowned white-glove service remains a hallmark. And the location is hard to top: Manhattan's luxury shopping and cultural attractions are just a short walk away.

A half-block east of the Pierre, Madison Avenue is lined with exclusive shopping destinations such as Barneys, Hermès, and Chanel. A half-block west, Fifth Avenue features flagship Bergdorf Goodman, FAO Schwarz, Tiffany & Co., and Apple stores. Take a break from shopping and visit one of the city's world-famous art institutions: the Museum of Modern Art and the Frick Collection are both about a 10-minute walk from the Pierre.

Acquiring tickets to a sold-out Broadway hit or reservations at celebrated restaurants is effortless with the Pierre's award-winning Les Clefs d'Or concierge team. But you don't need to venture beyond the hotel for memorable dining. An outpost of the famed London brasserie, Le Caprice serves modern European cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, complemented by Central Park views. Or enjoy small plates and handcrafted cocktails in elegant Two E lounge. For night owls and jet-lagged travelers, room service is available 24 hours, as are the fitness and business centers.

The Pierre's 200 Hotel Rooms and suites are richly appointed with textured silks and brocades. Beds are dressed in luxury Frette linens, and bathrooms feature Turkish marble, oversized showerheads, and Molton Brown amenities. Relax with a movie on the flat-panel HDTV, or dock your iPod on the Bose Wave stereo system. Need to finish up some work? Wireless and wired high-speed Internet access is available for a surcharge, and the electronic in-room safe will charge your laptop. Thoughtful touches include complimentary newspapers, overnight shoeshines, and twice-daily housekeeping with turndown service.
A short guide to Central Park

Buildings crane above one another to claim views of Central Park, a piece of real estate valued at more than $528 billion. Surprises abound in its 843 acres. The grounds include a castle, a zoo, several lakes, and an Egyptian obelisk. A city that never sleeps needs its quiet time, too: Central Park has six designated “quiet zones,†including Strawberry Fields, the monument to John Lennon.

Recreation

Available 24 hours a day, the fitness center includes free weights, strength-training equipment, and cardio machines with individual TVs. Fresh fruit, chilled towels, and bottled water are provided, and personal training is available on request for a surcharge. A Jiva Spa treatment room offers a range of Indian therapies, scrubs, wraps, and beauty services.

Just across Fifth Avenue from the Pierre, Central Park features miles of scenic paths for walking, biking, and jogging. The hotel provides a map with jogging routes, and the concierge can arrange rowboat and bicycle rentals, as well as wintertime ice-skating at Wollman Rink.
