The Waldorf Astoria New York is set to reopen this fall following an extensive $2 billion restoration, now featuring only 375 oversized rooms and suites. The lobby has been grandly restored to its original Art Deco proportions, showcasing marble flooring and hand-restored murals. The hotel has removed corporate decor, replacing it with luxurious furnishings and modern amenities. Originally opened in 1931, it has hosted numerous icons and will return with new ownership while maintaining its historic legacy.
The Waldorf Astoria New York is reopening this fall with just 375 oversized rooms and suites (down from more than 1,400), a sleek new look and a reverence for its storied past.
The soaring lobby has been restored to its original 1931 proportions, with gleaming marble underfoot, hand-restored murals overhead and sightlines that feel grander and more open than ever.
Gone are the office cubicles and corporate carpet vibes of the past. In their place are creamy marble floors, silver-leaf ceilings and custom Pierre-Yves Rochon furnishings.
Now under Dajia Insurance Group, the hotel returns with fresh ownership, new vision and its old grandeur intact, marking a significant cultural moment.
