Paris-based interior design firm Gilles & Boissier led the creation of the hotel’s interiors, which combine Baccarat’s French classic aesthetics with a fanciful modern sensibility. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill served as architects for the 50-story tower, while the residential design was led by New York-based interior designer and distinguished in the Architectural Digest 100, Tony Ingrao. The tower’s sixty private residences are accessible through a separate entrance and have access to all the hotel’s amenities.

The hotel’s interiors were conceived to combine the classic elegance of a luxury Parisian hotel particulier with the contemporary aesthetic of its midtown New York City location. Gilles & Boissier, alongside Starwood Capital’s own design team, designed many of the hotel’s furnishings including commissioning several unique works from the Baccarat factories. Classic pieces were also curated from the brands’ archival and contemporary collections for the public spaces and rooms. Room categories start with the generous Classic King and ascend to the Baccarat Presidential Suite.

The hotel’s bar, inspired by the stables of Versailles, serves handcrafted cocktails, aperitifs, fine wines and a light bites menu. Guests can also enjoy gathering on the adjacent seasonal terrace overlooking MoMA.

Located at street level, the signature contemporary French private dining room Chevalier takes its name from Baccarat’s long time and most beloved creative director, Georges Chevalier, who was responsible for ushering the crystal company into the modern age. Designed by legendary New York interior designer Stephen Sills, Chevalier is designed to be both inspiring and inviting. The colour palette draws from naturally occurring minerals like amber and mica; the materials used throughout Chevalier are light and luminous with a mix of matte and reflective services. Wooden floors add to the casual yet chic feel.

Baccarat has partnered with the ultra-prestigious skin care brand La Mer to create the intimate Spa de La Mer, its first spa in the Unites States. Designed to recall a luxurious European seaside retreat, the four treatment rooms beckon guests and locals who crave revitalising treatments and soothing respites.
