The Fifth Avenue Hotel
Romantic bohemian grand fantasy — think maximalist Gilded Age glamour with Murano chandeliers, cabinets of curiosity, a 700-piece curated art collection, and antique furnishings that feel lived-in rather than staged. The concept is built around the flâneur archetype: a curious, worldly wanderer who notices what others miss.
Make a Portrait Bar reservation — walk-ins are difficult and the space is small. Don't skip the Martini Ritual.
Why It Matters
Named Travel + Leisure's #1 Hotel in New York City in 2025. One of the few genuinely independent luxury properties to open in Manhattan in years, with no chain DNA. The Michelin-listed Café Carmellini is a standalone draw even for non-guests. Butler service and a complimentary house car come standard across all room categories.
The Fifth Avenue Hotel is an independently owned luxury property in NoMad — two buildings, one story. The historic 1907 Italian Renaissance-style palazzo (40-foot ceilings, arched windows, antique mirrors) connects to a 24-story modern tower built by the Ohebshalom family, who have owned the site since the late 1970s. Together they hold 153 rooms and suites designed in a romantic bohemian palette of greens, pinks, and yellows by Martin Brudnizki, whose past work includes Annabel's in London. And then there's Café Carmellini downstairs — a James Beard Award-winning chef's return to fine dining that immediately became one of the city's most talked-about restaurants.
