Nestled in Midtown Manhattan along 8^th Avenue – just south of Times Square and north of Penn Station – stands an iconic Jazz Age-era building that has drawn some of the most influential travelers in history. You’ll know you’re close when you look up to see its Art Deco façade, proudly adorned with red block-letters: NEW YORKER

Built in 1929, during the height of the Jazz Age, Wyndham New Yorker has dazzled visitors with its Art Deco décor, exceptional service, and superb location in Midtown West for generations.

The New Yorker was at the forefront of the city’s building boom in the 1920s. At the time of its opening, it was the largest hotel in New York City, with 2,500 rooms, as well as ballrooms and private dining “salons” – not to mention the nation’s largest private power plant, installed in the hotel’s sub basements.

The Big Band era of the early 1930s ushered in the first heyday of the New Yorker, as guests affected by the Great Depression visited the hotel to forget their troubles, if only for a short while. The hotel’s popularity continued through the 1940s, with famous guests including the Brooklyn Dodgers during the 1941 World Series, as well as Joe DiMaggio when his Yankees were in town.
