Rising like a sparkling jewel in the heart of Manhattan, the Baccarat Hotel New York shimmers as a radiant extension of the Baccarat crystal brand. The hotel occupies the first twelve floors of a striking city tower. Just the exterior alone glows like a sweeping, crystal-like structure, catching and reflecting the NYC’s light in a constant, gleaming spectacle. 

Perfectly positioned across from the Museum of Modern Art and just steps from Fifth Avenue’s iconic shopping selections, the atmosphere inside unfolds with a sense of cinematic elegance. The hotel’s rooms and suites are luminous sanctuaries, where every detail feels polished to a soft brilliance, reminiscent of the crystal that the hotel is inspired by. Culinary direction comes from acclaimed chef Gabriel Kreuther, whose vision carries through the Grand Salon’s refined all-day dining and signature afternoon tea. A dramatic bar with its soaring ceilings and garden terrace overlooking the museum below, giving guests an atmospheric experience that is elegant and simultaneously delicate.

Designed by Gilles & Boissier, the hotel balances French class with a playful, modern NYC edge. Since its founding by Louis XV in 1764, Baccarat crystal has embodied unmatched craftsmanship, and here at Baccarat Hotel New York, that legacy is transformed into an immersive world of light, texture, and timeless allure. An allure that is undeniable, irresistible, and glimmering with refinement. Conceived as a graceful collaboration between old-world refinement and modern energy, the interiors of the Baccarat Hotel New York were brought to life by the Parisian design duo Gilles & Boissier. Their vision draws from the intimacy and elegance of a Parisian hôtel, seamlessly woven into the vibrant rhythm of New York City. 

Across the hotel, every detail feels intentionally luminous. Walls shimmer with pleated silk, marble, and mirrored finishes. Ribbed metallic and mica-dusted ceilings catch the light with a soft, shimmering glow, echoed by crystal chandeliers that hover like suspended works of art. The atmosphere is further enriched by an art collection curated by Stéphanie Chambre and Frédéric Chambre, featuring pieces that span centuries alongside original works by French artists François Houtin and Armand Jonckers, lending the space a sense of timeless creativity and quiet intrigue.

Located on the second floor of the Baccarat Hotel New York, a world of culinary elegance unfolds under the direction of chef Gabriel Kreuther, whose menus drift effortlessly from sunlit mornings into candlelit evenings. His cooking feels almost poetic, with a devotion to detail and quiet luxury that mirrors the spirit of Baccarat crystal itself. In collaboration with the hotel’s Executive Chef Ashfer Biju, the menus evolve with the seasons, offering a living expression of flavor, craft, and time.

Within the Grand Salon, guests can revel in gentle indulgence. From delicate breakfasts, lunches, refined afternoon tea, and weekend brunches, all accompanied with artful cocktails. The hotel bar itself channels the romance of Versailles, reimagined with a modern glow. Guests and visitors can linger over finely composed drinks, rare wines, and elegant small plates. Throughout it all, every sip is elevated. Served in an eclectic collection of more than 15,000 pieces of shimmering Baccarat crystal, each glass catching the light like a fleeting moment of brilliance. Fleeting, but memorable. 

In a union of radiance and taste, Baccarat joins forces with the revered skincare house La Mer to unveil the Spa de La Mer, an intimate sanctuary, and a space for relaxation. Imagined as a dreamlike escape reminiscent of a refined European seaside hideaway, the spa unfolds through a series of tranquil treatment rooms where time seems to soften, inviting both guests and locals into moments of deep renewal and quiet indulgence. Completing the experience, a state-of-the-art fitness studio remains open around the clock, pairing cutting-edge equipment with expert trainers, ensuring that every element of well-being is as elevated as it is effortless.

A stay at Hotel Baccarat New York is a chance for guests to take a moment, breathe in the beauty around them, and enjoy life’s sparkle.
