THE Baccarat name has long been synonymous with decadent luxury. Founded by King Louis XV, the legendary French crystal company’s glittering objets d’art have been a favourite of high society for over 250 years, from kings and queens to moguls and Hollywood superstars. The Maison’s foray into hotels is equally as unparalleled.
The Baccarat Hotel New York, situated in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, offers the ultimate privacy and comfort, epitomised by its Maison Privé offering.
Guests of the five-star hotel have the opportunity to exclusively take over its top floor – with private lift access to 11 rooms and suites, including the hotel’s premier accommodation, the Baccarat Suite. Designed for those seeking seclusion, the offering is enhanced by in-room dining – with a Baccarat Brunch created by two Michelin-star chef Gabriel Kreuther available for one morning – complementary treatment in the country’s only Spa de La Mer, a 55-foot swimming pool and a state-of-the-art fitness centre.
The suites – each feeling like a stylish pied-à-terre – include bright floor-to-ceiling windows, hand-painted French doors leading to marble bathrooms with glass-enclosed showers, plush sitting areas and custom linens by Mascioni.
