The Langham New York Hotel Review
There’s nothing like a trip to New York City and what better than to pair your experience with a modern luxury hotel. I believe everyone should experience a classic NYC trip where your every move is about doing things your way. That’s one of the reasons why New York is so special. Because it doesn’t matter who you are or where you’re from, all are welcome. Whether you enjoy walking down the bustling side streets, indulging in all the delicious food, strolling through the famous parks, being captivated by amazing art at the museums, sipping a cocktail on a rooftop or taking a luxurious bath with a view, the city has everything for you.
If you’re looking for a well-rounded and more upscale New York City experience then I highly recommend staying at The Langham New York Hotel to make your trip more fun and relaxed. The hotel is situated in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, making it easily accessible to everything. In addition, the Langham Hotels are truly one of a kind and offer some of the best accommodations and amenities, not to mention extremely spacious rooms for a NYC hotel.
The Langham New York Hotel Review
The Langham Hotels and Resorts offer luxury experiences in prime destinations in the United States and around the world, reflecting the values of Sincere Service, Innovation, Captivation of the Senses and Exceptional Design, which originated from London back in 1865. In fact, The Langham London was known as one of Europe’s first “grand hotels” and was named after Sir James Langham, whose mansion was the original center of London. The Langham has always represented innovative hospitality and a sense of high-end luxury without feeling stuffy or pretentious. With hotels located in Asia, Europe, The Middle East, Pacific & North America, guests have been able to experience these magical hotels to celebrate life’s special moments or just the everyday!
The Langham New York Hotel is a 5-star luxury hotel located in Midtown Manhattan. Just a 5-minute walk from Bryant Park and a 6-minute walk from The Empire State Building.
It’s the best spot to be right in the middle of everything so you can easily access all parts of the city whether you take the subway or Uber. I believe this hotel sets itself apart from other hotels in the area because of the accommodations, amenities, hospitality and customer service. From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, you’ll be taken care of. Upon arrival you’ll be taken back by the stunning interiors and gorgeous lobby smell, given assistance with your luggage, handed a bottle of water and escorted to your room where you’ll enter a land of comfort and luxury.
You’ll have access to 234 residentially-styled guest rooms and suites that offer apartment-style amenities that are perfect for families and all other kinds of travelers. Each room offers a plethora of amenities, that signature hotel lobby scent and highlighted views of the iconic Manhattan skyline with floor-to-ceiling glass windows. I can’t think of anything better for a city experience.
The Langham New York Hotel Rooms
During my stay at The Langham New York, I stayed in the Deluxe Room which is one of the largest NYC hotel rooms I’ve been in. As you may already know, rooms in NYC can be quite small. And this one just blew me away with space and amenities. This room can sleep up to 3 guests and has a large and lush king bed, a full fitted Italian-style wardrobe with glass-fronted walnut drawers, a built-in safe, floor-to-ceiling windows that you can open to let in fresh air, complimentary Nespresso coffee maker, bottled water, a 32-inch flat-screen TV, Swedish Duxiana bed, a marble bathroom with a double vanity, deep soaking tub and separate glass rainfall shower, a TV built into the bathroom mirror and of course, a luxurious robe to relax in.
I love the details in the room from the beautiful scent, to the plush carpets, the touches of pink, the natural lighting from the windows, the rich wood interiors and the marble bathroom with all the luxury products you need.
The bathroom itself includes both a large deep soaking tub and walk-in shower. I’m usually not a bath person but I couldn’t resist the enormous bathtub facing the views of the NYC skyline. The room is well equipped with everything you need including an iron, ironing board, desk and lamp, robe to lounge in as well as a plethora of bathroom toiletries like shampoo, conditioner, body wash, a sewing kit, shower cap and other little things you may have forgotten on your journey.
Other bedroom suites you have access to at The Langham include the Superior Room, Superior City View Room, Deluxe Room, Deluxe City View Room, Deluxe Room with Terrace, Executive Room with Kitchen, Family Double-Double Room with Kitchen, Family Room, Junior Suite, Junior Suite with Empire State Building View, Junior Suite with Terrace, One Bedroom Empire State View Suite, Empire State Penthouse Suite and the Empire State Presidential Suite. All of these guests rooms and suites include the amenities listed and more. There’s so many great options whether you’re traveling solo, with a partner or your family.

Wellness is a huge priority at The Langham Hotels which is one of my favorite aspects of the hotel.

Dining At The Langham New York Hotel
Private Kitchen

For breakfast, you can expect dishes like omelets, pancakes, breakfast sandwiches, avocado toast, acai bowl and smoked salmon.

If you’re looking to host a private event at The Langham, you will get access to multiple Private Kitchen pre-fixe menu options to choose from between 10-80 guests.
Bar Fiori
Hotel bars are the best. There’s just something so wonderful about experiencing a luxurious bar in a fancy dress with a delicious cocktail and a good atmosphere. Bar Fiori is known for its stunning elegance, beautiful flower arrangements, sparkling clean marble countertops and modern decor. You’ll have access to both the Bar Fiori menu as well as the Ai Fiori menu when sitting at the bar. Some things to look forward to include seasonal happy hour specials, signature $29 express lunch meal, a late-night wine lover’s special and Chef Michael White’s award-winning White Label burger. In addition to their intentional appetizer menu with things like Olive Miste, Mozzarella Confit and Fegato Pollo, they also feature signature drinks like the classic aperol spritz, americano bianco, americano grosso and fiore americano.
Ai Fiori
I always recommend making a reservation at the restaurant as I believe hotel restaurants are extremely underrated. Most of the time, the restaurant, owners and chefs have incredible stories and interesting facts behind the brand of how it came about and they almost always offer insane cuisine. I also love chatting with the managers and servers about what brought them here and what their favorite dishes are. Ai Fiori is a Michelin starred restaurant where you’ll be greeted with a moody, beautifully decorated and romantic atmosphere, making it the ideal place for couples and friends. Ai Fiori stands for “among the flowers” in Italian, which celebrates the French and Italian Riviera, courtesy of the world-renowned Altamarea Group and Chef Michael White.
We were immediately impressed with the ambiance and overall service upon arrival. And had an exquisite experience trying the different dishes. We decided to go with the Four Course Pre Fixe meal with the wine pairing, of course. Our choices included Insalata and Vellutata for antipasti, Trofe Nero and Mezzaluna for pasta, Ippoglosso and Anatra for the entree and Torta di Limone and Cubetto di Cioccolato for dessert with a scoop of gelati. Absolutely delicious!
My Experience At The Langham New York Hotel
The Langham New York Hotel completely blew me away, as expected. Between the ideal location, stunning lobby, luxury amenities, wellness focus, the beautiful scent, gorgeous decor, comfortable rooms and delicious food, it catered to every need. I always love staying at The Langham Hotels because you just know what you’re getting. Every property is so on-brand and detailed down to a T that you can’t help but feel like royalty when you’re here.
What I enjoyed most was the location, hospitality, welcome amenity, gorgeous wood interiors in the room, the view of the New York skyline, the enormous bathtub and the overall feeling of pure luxury when you enter this hotel. Everyone was super accommodating, kind and extremely efficient whether it be delivering room service or helping me with my luggage. I see a pattern now between the employees at both The Langham Boston and The Langham New York, they all truly care about their guests! Going above and beyond is a part of the brand and it shows in everything they do.
It’s no secret that such luxury comes with a high price tag.
The overnight stay, in-room dining, service fees and taxes are quite high at The Langham. So it really is the most ideal for special occasions or something you do once or twice a year. I recommend staying at The Langham for 1-2 nights in a bustling city to get the best experience. That way you can pair your birthday, anniversary, job promotion or anything in the best way possible by stimulating your senses completely. If you like to experience true luxury in its highest form, then The Langham is for you. Whether you’re staying as a guest or planning an event, they will cater to all the needs and I have no doubt you’ll enjoy your time.
