The Benjamin Royal Sonesta New York represents Sonesta's first distinctive full-service property in Manhattan. A New York City landmark and storied boutique-style hotel, it is located on East

50th Street in Midtown and in the heart of the world's best shopping, dining, architecture and entertainment. The 209-room Benjamin was originally designed as a residential-style hotel with terraces. Designed by famed architect Emery Roth, the hotel's edifice inspired artist Georgia O'Keefe's painting "New York—Night." The Benjamin offers guest rooms and suites ranging from deluxe rooms, studios and one-bedroom suites to suites with terraces. The hotel features thoughtful services and amenities, including an onsite restaurant, a 24-hour fitness center and 2,200 square feet of event space.

Sonesta is planning to make a multi-million-dollar investment to renovate the lobby and guest rooms at The Benjamin Royal Sonesta within the next 18 months.
