Property amenities

The 18-story Kitano New York offers a Japanese sensibility in Midtown’s Murray Hill neighborhood, 4 blocks from magnificent Grand Central Terminal. Dating from the 19th century, the building was formerly owned by the Rockefellers and known as the Murray Hill Hotel. Public spaces are filled with museum-quality art and photography. Among the notable works are a whimsical bronze sculpture by Fernando Botero, in the center of the lobby, and four works by multimedia artist Red Grooms, in the Garden Café. The hotel houses two restaurants that serve traditional Japanese cuisine and European fare, including a signature room that offers exquisitely presented Kaiseki dinners. Sakes and other fine spirits are showcased in the intimate lounge overlooking Park Avenue. Complimentary limousine service is offered to Wall Street on weekdays.
