Located adjacent to New York’s Central Park at the corner of Fifth Avenue and 61st Street, The Pierre Hotel has reopened after undergoing a $100 million renovation program.
The Pierre now offers 189 redesigned residential-style guest rooms and 49 suites, including 11 “Grand Suites”. The Grand Suites are equipped with such luxuries as “hand-crafted finishes and elegant details, such as rich silk and brocade fabrics, Murano glass chandeliers and hand-knotted carpets, and carefully integrated technology, including Bang & Olufsen audio and Sony home theatre systems and high speed wired and wireless Internet connections”. All the comforts of home – assuming you live in a really nice home.
The Pierre’s public areas have been modified to add a redesigned reception area and “Two E” – the hotel’s new lounge and bar. A new restaurant, Le Caprice, the first location outside of London for the UK favorite, opens its Martin Brudnizki-designed dining room in October.
