The Benjamin Royal Sonesta New York

On the prominent corner of East 50th Street and Lexington Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. Steps from Grand Central, Rockefeller Center, Fifth Avenue and St. Patrick’s Cathedral. A pet-friendly, family-friendly Midtown hotel address for business and play.

Recently renovated with a modern, residential vibe. Rooms and suites feel like small urban apartments — think galley kitchens or kitchenettes, private terraces in select rooms, custom New York artwork and roomy living areas. Sleep better with the Rest & Renew program: ten-choice pillow menu, on-demand meditation, blackout curtains and a kids sleep program.

24-hour fitness center on the 3rd floor, steam room, library and terrace views. Spa treatments are offered for an extra charge; the full-service spa is currently closed for renovations. Lobby Cupboard stocks locally curated snacks and soft drinks. Valet parking available (rates posted), 24-hour reception and concierge services keep city life easy.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout and laptop-compatible safes in rooms. Business center, nine meeting rooms and a banquet hall make this a solid choice for events and conferences. Express check-out and 24-hour front desk help keep schedules tight.

On-site restaurant and bar plus a snack bar/deli for quick bites. The Lobby Cupboard offers locally curated snacks and soft drinks for grab-and-go moments.
