ABOUT
Kimpton Ashbel New York-Park Avenue, located in Midtown Manhattan, is housed in a historic building originally constructed in 1928 during the Beaux-Arts movement as the Doral Park Avenue Hotel. Kimpton Ashbel has been reimagined for today’s traveler while celebrating its storied past.
Situated just steps from Grand Central Terminal and surrounded by tree-lined streets, Gilded Age mansions, and classic architecture, the lifestyle hotel brings a renewed sense of timelessness to Park Avenue. The townhouse-inspired design, led by Busta Studio, layers warm woods, soft palettes, and curated gold accents with playful touches of color.
Kimpton Ashbel’s 205 guestrooms and suites, including 14 family-friendly connecting rooms, balance serenity with sophistication. Interiors feature jade green accents, plush fabrics, bespoke millwork headboards with integrated lighting, and thoughtfully designed bathrooms. Many rooms in the 17-story building offer sweeping views of Park Avenue and the Empire State Building.
Complementing the Kimpton Ashbel experience is Park & Bel, an innovative café concept designed to become a neighborhood favorite and must-visit for hotel guests. Park & Bel’s menu transitions from artisanal baked goods, seasonal fruit, and hearty sandwiches in the morning to small plates, including a robust selection of curated cheeses, thoughtfully prepared cured meats, and delicately spiced nuts, during the evening hours. A curated bar cart program rounds out the offering, bringing a sense of occasion to every pour with premium cocktails, craft beer, and fine wine. True to the Kimpton brand, the hotel offers coffee service in the mornings and an afternoon wine hour in the lobby, both complimentary for guests.
Nestled in Midtown among storied landmarks, celebrated attractions, and world-class cultural institutions, Kimpton Ashbel offers guests a distinct New York experience, energized by the city yet grounded in warmth and ease. The hotel serves as a timeless hideaway for travelers and locals alike, while embodying Kimpton’s legacy of thoughtful hospitality, design-forward spaces, and authentic connection to place. Kimpton Ashbel is located minutes from major attractions such as Grand Central Terminal, Bryant Park, the Morgan Library & Museum, and nearby businesses.
