The New York Edition, for a new generation

new edition

Set in the heart of midtown New York’s Flatiron district, the 1909 clock tower was once the city’s tallest building, built as the headquarters for The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company.

Now, as The New York Edition, it has been transformed into a 273-room hotel. Oak wood complements neutral hues and customised furniture in the guest rooms and suites. The oversized windows offer sensational views over Madison Square Park, the Empire State Building and the general buzz of the Big Apple. Butler service, 48-inch flat-screen HDTV and Beats Bluetooth speakers keep guests happily entertained in their room, or more leisure pursuits can be found in the spa and gym plus the Lobby and Gold bars, with their renowned cocktail programme.

For those on business, state-of-the-art facilities plus a boardroom will help clinch that deal.

And the area’s go-to eatery is on the very spot: under the direction of British Michelin-starred chef Jason Atherton, The Clocktower restaurant – complete with a billiard room – dishes up fabulous updated classics and contemporary British fare.
