A Contemporary Tribute to New York's Architectural Icons
In the heart of Manhattan’s Upper East Side, The Surrey, A Corinthia Hotel, has unveiled a set of four exquisite signature suites, each crafted as a residential-style sanctuary inspired by the iconic bridges of Central Park. Conceived by celebrated interior designer Martin Brudnizki of MBDS, the Pine Bank Bridge Suite, Bethesda Grandeur Suite, Greywacke Heritage Suite, and the Surrey Suite embody the spirit of enduring elegance and thoughtful design.
Upper East Side Legacy, Reimagined in Luxury Living
Nestled steps away from Madison Avenue’s most refined boutiques, the museums of Fifth Avenue, and the serene beauty of Central Park, these suites represent the pinnacle of refined comfort. With heritage architecture and contemporary accents, each space blends classical charm with tailored modernity, offering guests a deeply immersive New York experience.
Immersive Design Rooted in Culture and Craft
Drawing inspiration from the intricate details of Central Park’s historic bridges, wrought iron patterns, natural stone, and graceful contours, each suite presents a harmonious narrative of place and memory. The interiors, adorned with curated furnishings and custom finishes, are elevated by a bespoke art program curated in collaboration with Paris-based VISTO Gallery, celebrating the artists who have shaped New York’s cultural identity.
Signature Suites: A Showcase of Bespoke Hospitality
Spanning between 1,200 and 2,130 square feet, the Bethesda Grandeur, Pine Bank Bridge, and Greywacke Heritage suites each offer expansive one-bedroom layouts with lavish living areas and spa-inspired marble bathrooms. The Surrey Suite, a two-bedroom masterpiece, pays tribute to the poetic elegance of Bow Bridge and offers a discreet yet commanding residential retreat, complete with a hidden study, dual bathrooms, and dressing room wrapped in serene lacquered hues.
All suites feature custom desks, Antica Farmacista amenities, and thoughtfully stocked pantries. Guests enjoy elevated access to Casa Tua, use of The Surrey’s luxury house car, and exclusive in-room experiences including Sommelier-led tastings and wellness rituals by Sisley Paris, including spa access and salt room privileges.
