About The Plaza
The Plaza is one of New York’s most famous addresses, facing Central Park at the top of Fifth Avenue. Its website lists the Palm Court for afternoon tea, the Champagne Bar, in-room and private dining, the 111SKIN spa and clinic, a fitness centre, a concierge team and historical tours of the hotel, and children know it as the home of Eloise. The Fifth Avenue shops and Central Park are on the doorstep.
