Royalton proudly re-opens its doors onto midtown Manhattan, re-thought, re-imagined, but still an icon.

Morgans Hotel Group commissioned Roman and Williams, the New York design firm, to re-create Royalton’s legendary lobby as a crossroads for international travelers and the New York elite. The design – simultaneously sophisticated and complex – juxtaposes an icy cast-glass vestibule and brutalist steel and brass furnishings with soft suede upholstery, thick leather walls and hide-covered chairs to create a dark, sexy and luxurious space.

Restaurateur, John McDonald, creator of the acclaimed Lever House and Lure Fishbar has furnished Royalton two new meccas for conversation and cuisines: Brasserie 44, an intimate 100 seat restaurant with a modern American Menu comprised of fresh seasonal foods and Bar 44, the reincarnation of Royalton’s legendary Round Bar, featuring bar and pre-theater menus.  The restaurant has been treated with a lighter touch by Roman and Williams, with arches made of rope, groups of glowing glass globes and honeyed teak walls and banquettes.
