The cancellation policy for groups is outlined in the contract and may vary from group to group.

The hotel is not authorized to cancel third-party reservations.

To be considered a group, you must have a minimum of 5 rooms, with 10 to 15 people.

(212) 753-5178. It’s a short half block walk to the hotel. Mention that you are a guest and ask our reception to validate your ticket at check out. Parking charges are paid to the garage directly and the rate is currently $35 per night; $45 per night for oversized vehicles with no in and out privileges. Street parking laws are very restrictive everywhere in NYC including around our hotel. Please do not leave your vehicle unattended on 49th Street as enforcement is very swift. Read all parking signs carefully.
