In the bustling heart of Manhattan, where the pulse of New York City beats the loudest, stands a beacon of luxury and comfort—the Marmara Park Avenue. Since its grand opening in 2016, this boutique hotel has redefined urban sophistication, merging European elegance with an unmistakable New York charisma.

Housed in a historic 1927 building at 114 East 32nd Street, the Marmara Park Avenue is a creation of the prestigious Joe Ginsberg Design Company. A meticulous renovation transformed the space, involving skilled artisans from across New York’s five boroughs to breathe life into a vision of a ‘home away from home.’ The result is spectacular, a pied-à-terre for the discerning traveller.

The grandeur of Marmara Park Avenue is immediately apparent upon entering its lobby. A stunning arched vestibule, constructed from 670 pieces of faceted steel and 700 panes of hand-cut glass, invites guests into a world of refined elegance. The lobby, marked by a breathtaking 14-foot-high sculptural fireplace and adorned with floating wood-carved birds, creates an ambience of warmth and invitation.

The hotel’s accommodations are a testament to its commitment to comfort and style. With 128 residential-style guestrooms and suites, the Marmara Park Avenue offers an authentic New York City living experience. Each room blends bespoke furnishings, original wallpaper designs, and state-of-the-art technology, including iPads with round-the-clock virtual concierge services. The attention to detail extends to ADA-compliant rooms, ensuring accessibility for all guests.

The pinnacle of the accommodation offerings is the luxurious penthouses. Ranging from the spacious Two-Bedroom to the expansive Three-Bedroom Duplex Penthouse, these residences offer panoramic views of the city, high-end kitchen facilities, and lavish marble ensuite bathrooms. The Three-Bedroom Duplex Penthouse, featuring indoor and outdoor living spaces totalling over 3,300 square feet, represents the epitome of upscale urban living.

Dining at the Marmara Park Avenue is an experience in itself. The tuti Restaurant Bar Lounge, helmed by Executive Chef Ömür Özkan, a Le Cordon Bleu alumnus, presents a menu rich with French, Italian, and Mediterranean influences. The Balcón Rooftop offers guests a scenic retreat to enjoy craft cocktails and bites against New York City’s iconic skyline.

Wellness at the Marmara is catered to with equal finesse. The hotel features an underground Wellness Center complete with a Hammam, offering traditional Turkish treatments on a heated marble slab—an oasis of relaxation in the city that never sleeps.

Marmara Park Avenue provides meticulously designed spaces like The Nook and The Lexington Room for business and social events. Each meeting or gathering will be unforgettable, equipped with state-of-the-art audiovisual technology and backed by personalized event planning services.

Situated mere steps from landmarks like the Empire State Building and Macy’s Herald Square, the hotel’s location offers unparalleled access to some of New York’s most sought-after attractions.
