Standout Suites
Designed by award-winning interior designers, ForrestPerkins, the suites evoke a sense of retreat that guests would expect from a townhouse, complete with a palette of soft neutral tones and curated art. At the centerpiece of the unveiling is the hotel’s newest three-floor penthouse suites: Madison Avenue Penthouse and Park Avenue Penthouse. Each three-floor penthouse suite features an extensive living area with an overlook on the second level, coupled with bronzed metal, muted tones and accents of blue to create a unique airiness and elegance to the space.

Additionally, the one-floor Skyview suites including The Empire Skyview Suite and The Manhattan Skyview Suite offer guests a spacious master bedroom inclusive of a master bath and walk-in closet in addition to a library, gym, entertainment room, living room, office, dining room, and kitchen.

Each master suite and guest room in the collection offers a serene escape from the city with Hästens mattresses. A standout of the Hästens partnership is The Hästens Ultimate Sleep Suite, which is the only suite in the world to house this iteration of the flagship Vividus bed retailing for $200,000. The Vividus bed is made of the finest natural materials crafted by nine of the world’s most foremost bed artisans with traditional craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. Each Hästens bed is handcrafted using all natural, breathable materials such as cotton, flax, horsehair, pine and wool.

The two additional three-floor penthouse suites, The Champagne Suite and The Jewel Suite, are iconic to the hotel, offering guests a one-of-a-kind experience. The Champagne Suite’s interior reflects a contemporary and modern design, welcoming guests with a Nouveau Nero marble floor leading to a double-story Grand Parlour surrounded by floor to ceiling windows. The master suite and double queen suite take design inspiration from the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes with expressions of leather and deep rose tones. The Champagne cave, the only one of its kind in New York City, provides a rustic experience for guests directly adjacent to the dining room, while the tasting lounge and outdoor terrace house a black glass fireplace and custom designed hot tub where guests can enjoy unobstructed views.

The Jewel Suite, designed by acclaimed jewelry designer Martin Katz and HOK, merges romance and Art-deco inspired design to reflect early 20th century glamour. The suite opens with a two-story ‘Cascading Crystal’ chandelier and sculptural crystal ‘jewel boxes,’ personally curated by Martin Katz in addition to a private internal elevator accessing the suites second and third levels. The Grand Parlor showcases a magnificent grand piano with breathtaking 15-foot windows which gracefully flows into the dining room. The master and double bedrooms reflect the jeweled theme in opulent, upscale furnishings complete with a master bath and guest bath, respectively. The terrace level is an intimate and romantic setting, featuring one of the few wood burning fireplaces while the exterior terrace features a formal manicured garden and green space with an elevated spa in a striking stone landscape.

Design and Functionality
In addition to featuring Hästens mattresses in every master and guest room, Lotte New York Palace has incorporated the iconic, trademarked checkered pattern in various shades throughout the suites as an extension of the interior design. Outfitted in soft natural tones with neutral textures and splashes of vibrant blue, the one-of-a-kind suites offer a residential design that invites guests to feel at home during their stays.

Handmade in India, the rugs in each suite beautifully complement the subdued palette, paired with working fireplaces that add a sense of warmth and comfort. Seamlessly connected, the dining space introduces a moody and textural environment with earthy browns and nudes contrasted by lighter pops of white and tan. Each suite consists of a library and seating area, some serving as the entrance to the bedroom, which opens the space and brings a new element to the room.

Large windows offer natural light and stunning views of Manhattan, while pops of color in the furniture add brightness to the rooms. The custom millwork walk-in closets incorporate the neutral colors and feature several full-length mirrors and deep storage space to keep items and valuables safe. The contemporary design continues into the suites’ bathrooms, which reflect cool tones, flaunting marble stone walls and floors within the space. Electric mirrors allow guests to control the lighting and mood, adding a sleek design element and sense of elegance to the space.

Curated Art
Curated by DM Art, the newly renovated suites feature a bespoke art collection that celebrates New York City with particular inspiration from nearby Central Park. The art collection is an eclectic mix of fine art prints, collage, paintings on canvas, photography, mixed media and multi-dimensional works. The urban- and nature-inspired imagery grounded in a neutral palette uses subtle pops of color and metallics to bring the narrative of classic New York elegance to life.

Each piece of art was designed and produced by DM Art’s in-house team of artists and artisans whose talents range from traditional fine art techniques to modern digital practices. The overall goal for the collection was to evoke the unique qualities of the property and its locale with some influences easily recognizable, while others subjective to the guest.

Wellness Check In
All newly-renovated suites in the Royal Suite Collection offer a fitness component, including Peloton bikes, treadmills and yoga mats in-room. Select three-floor penthouse suites include both a Peloton bike and treadmills in a private fitness room overlooking breathtaking views of the Manhattan skyline.

The Royal Suite Collection is housed within The Towers, a separate, distinct aspect of Lotte New York Palace that occupies the top 14 floors. A ‘hotel within a hotel,’ The Towers has its own stylish private reception area, complete with a dedicated Les Clefs d’Or concierge team exclusive to The Towers guests. Signature service elements for the suites in the collection include Maybach car service and complimentary packing and unpacking.
