Lobby Bar at The New York EDITION
At The New York EDITION · 1F
A hotel bar at the base of the Metropolitan Life Tower, conceived by Ian Schrager and Rockwell Group around a 1930s art moderne sensibility. It sits directly off the reception with oversized windows facing Madison Square Park, designed to function as a gathering place for guests and locals in equal measure. The room reads less like a hotel bar and more like a living room that has simply chosen to serve cocktails.
Neighborhood
Flatiron · Madison Square Park
Atmosphere
The atmosphere is calm and unhurried — natural light carries the room through the day, and by evening it settles into something quieter and warmer without effort.
Key features
Fur throws on the sofas are part of the original design brief, park-facing windows shift the room's character entirely with the seasons, steps from Eleven Madison Park on one of the city's most decorated dining blocks

About the hotel
A luxury hotel in the Flatiron District housed inside the 1909 Metropolitan Life Tower, designed by Ian Schrager with interiors by Rockwell Group. The Gothic clock tower was modeled after the Campanile in Venice and briefly held the title of tallest building in New York. The Lobby Bar and The Clocktower sit steps from Eleven Madison Park, on one of the most decorated dining blocks in the city.
