Where can you find the first W hotel? Look no further. In 1998, among the massive skyscrapers and sea of yellow taxis this 688-room oasis was built. W New York offers savvy travelers refuge in a hectic world. Every inch of the hotel is bathed in natural tones and soothing light. Inspired by nature, dedicated to service, and winner of the 2005 Concierge Team of the Year Award by WHERE magazine, W New York is a magical place where your every whim is within reach and the amenities are unparalleled. Architectural designer David Rockwell has created a tranquil sanctuary inspired by nature's elements - earth, wind, fire, and water. Lose yourself in public spaces that feel private. And private places that define the sublime. Who's hungry? Savor a delicious meal at Heartbeat. Who's thirsty? Immerse yourself in the intimate scene at WHISKEY BLUE - Rande Gerber's creation that redefines nightlife. Or, meet some friends and relax in the Oasis living room lounge. Naturally, it's up to you.
