Just the word, penthouse, conjures luxurious glamor! Suggesting views of soaring skyline scenery, ultimate privacy on a secluded terrace, and amenities galore.

The Roaring Twenties, brought the concept of a penthouse to life, when Manhattan, the financial heart of America, experienced a construction boom and strong economic growth. Wealthy Americans living in cities lacking flat land built high which led to many of the luxurious apartments you still see in the Upper East Side neighborhoods in New York.

Plaza Athenee Hotel possesses a swell penthouse with sweeping views and two terraces. Located one short block from Central Park, the hotel’s location at E. 64th Street and Madison Avenue provides a unique ambiance along a quiet, tree-lined, residential street surrounded by refined townhouses. Marvelous walking, easy museum access, classic European service provides the ultimate in luxury. Twice-daily maid service, 24 hour concierge service and 24 hour room service are just a few of the amenities available to guests.

Some suites boast indoor glass-enclosed atrium terraces and outdoor balconies, with the glittering lights of the Manhattan skyline as the perfect backdrop for a romantic night in or simply a relaxing evening after a long day of exploration in the city. For the perfect pampered stay, reserve one of the two Presidential Suites featuring 2,000 palatial square feet of space, or there’s the ultimate Penthouse!
