Hotels Elvis Presley Has Stayed At

Private terraces overlooking Sixth Avenue and 54th Street give some of the Warwick’s accommodations an unusually expansive relationship with Midtown. The hotel’s Renaissance and Art Deco architecture sets the tone for a stay with a decidedly traditional streak: marble bathrooms, suites with separate living areas, and Randolph’s Bar & Lounge, where dark wood paneling frames the seating. Breakfast takes place amid the artwork at Murals on 54. Built by publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst in 1926, the Warwick still makes architectural character part of its appeal. Its address also puts the Museum of Modern Art nearby, with Rockefeller Center, Fifth Avenue, and Central Park within easy reach.

A courtyard decorated with thousands of mosaics gives Prince de Galles a distinctive heart: Le Patio, a garden setting for lunch, dinner or cocktails just off Avenue George V. Opened in 1929, the hotel carries its Art Deco identity through a lobby of marble floors and gold-leaf chandeliers into rooms and suites inspired by the era. The Suite Saphir extends that vocabulary in beige and blue, with two terraces overlooking the avenue. Dining adds another reason to linger: Restaurant & Bar 19.20 takes its cue from 1920s Paris, while Akira Back serves modern Japanese cooking with Korean and international influences. Beyond the hotel, the Champs-Élysées is steps away.
