Restoring luxury living at the Waldorf Astoria

Waldorf Astoria, New York: Restoration and Renovation

Built in 1931, Waldorf Astoria New York is a historic icon, and Suffolk helped restore the hotel to its Art Deco opulence. The residential fit-out included 375 luxury condominium units and 50,000 SF of amenities, featuring a grand salon, lounge, private dining, wine cellar, pool, game room, winter garden, board room, library, and fitness facility. The project aimed to blend classic grandeur with contemporary luxury, offering dynamic views of the city.

A grand hotel lobby with tall columns, indoor palm trees, a mosaic floor, and wide staircases. Large windows let in natural light, and people are seated or walking through the elegant, spacious area.

Luxurious indoor swimming pool with blue tiles, elegant white columns, large windows, mirrored wall accents, loungers, and a skylight ceiling letting in natural light. Decor includes plants and modern gold touches.

After completing the infrastructure and residences phases, Suffolk was awarded the hotel portion of the master plan, which included 377 keys, a dedicated amenities floor, upscale dining, and ultra-luxury FF&E fit-outs. Leveraging laser scanning and advanced BIM technology, Suffolk delivered all three phases of this high-end, historic renovation with precision and efficiency.
