World’s Most Famous Hotel – Plaza Hotel Penthouses Are For Sale

Perched majestically overlooking Central Park, The Plaza stands as a timeless symbol of opulence and prestige in the bustling heart of New York City. Revered as one of the world’s most iconic luxury hotels, The Plaza has a storied history that spans over a century, captivating the imagination of visitors and residents alike.

Designed by the renowned architect Henry Janeway Hardenburg, often hailed as the “master of the skyscraper,” The Plaza’s French Renaissance-inspired chateau-style architecture has mesmerized generations since its construction in 1907. With a then-astronomical price tag of $12.5 million, the building was a testament to grandeur and extravagance, boasting imported materials from Europe, including an unprecedented order of gold-encrusted crystal chandeliers.

Throughout its illustrious history, The Plaza has played host to some of society’s most illustrious figures. From foreign monarchs to titans of industry and Hollywood royalty, its halls have witnessed countless moments of glamour and prestige. Notably, in 1966, Truman Capote’s legendary Black and White Ball took center stage in The Plaza Ballroom, an event heralded as the epitome of sophistication and style by The New York Times.

Declared a National Historic Monument in 1986, The Plaza has remained an enduring symbol of architectural and cultural significance. In 1988, it entered a new chapter when it was acquired by Donald Trump, who famously described it as “the ultimate work of art,” further cementing its status as a landmark of unparalleled distinction.

Today, The Plaza continues to enchant visitors and residents alike, not only as a luxurious hotel but also as a sought-after residential address. Its illustrious facade has graced the silver screen in numerous iconic films, from Alfred Hitchcock’s “North by Northwest” to the beloved holiday classic “Home Alone.”

At the crown of this iconic hotel, double penthouses await those seeking the pinnacle of luxury living. Priced at a staggering $70 million, these residences offer an unparalleled blend of elegance, sophistication, and modern comfort. The main residence, spanning 6,316 square feet, features a triplex layout with four bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, and a private elevator for seamless access between floors.

Designed to indulge the most discerning tastes, the penthouses boast premium materials such as marble and hardwood, floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the interiors with natural light, and panoramic views of Central Park and the New York skyline. The primary suite exudes luxury with its double dressing rooms and spa baths, while the second residence’s suite offers a serene retreat with a wood-burning fireplace and elegant sitting room.

Entertaining is a delight in these palatial abodes, with spacious living areas, formal dining rooms, and gourmet kitchens equipped with top-of-the-line appliances. Residents also enjoy access to The Plaza’s exclusive amenities, including the Palm Court, Champagne Bar, Guerlain Spa, and fitness center, all accessible via the hotel’s iconic lobby adorned with marble walls and crystal chandeliers.

Nestled in the prestigious Midtown Manhattan neighborhood, The Plaza offers unrivaled access to the city’s most iconic landmarks, including Fifth Avenue’s renowned boutiques, Central Park’s verdant oasis, and cultural institutions such as Times Square and Rockefeller Center.

With its rich history, unparalleled luxury, and coveted location, The Plaza represents the epitome of Manhattan living, attracting discerning buyers seeking a lifestyle of sophistication and refinement. As the listing is held by Nikki Field, Mara Flash Blum, and Sara Marrache of Sotheby’s International Realty, those with a penchant for luxury living have the opportunity to call this legendary address home, ensconced in the timeless elegance of The Plaza.
