Checking in/out of the Park Hyatt New York

Check-in is 3pm and check-out is 12pm, which is a bit later than many hotels. If you arrive early the hotel will store your bags at a minimum and will also accommodate you if your room is not available. Additionally, if you are a World of Hyatt program member, you can request a late check out. Becoming a World of Hyatt program member is free, and it provides great program loyalty perks – early check-in, late check-out, free breakfast (at the Globalist level) and more. We highly recommend it.

Rooms and suites

The Park Hyatt New York offers super comfortable accommodations right in the heart of the Big Apple. Over multiple stays, we have experienced different rooms as well as different suites, and they were all furnished beautifully with plenty of space for a comfortable stay. The bedding is of very high quality, the bath towels are soft and absorbent, and robes and slippers are also provided. We found the bathrooms to be beautifully furnished with plenty of room and every amenity you can possibly need. Additionally, the Nespresso machine was a great and convenient option for an early morning coffee. The suites include a separate living area with a couch, extra table and a second TV.

Dining options

The Living Room serves as a restaurant and bar. The setting is beautiful and there is a revolving art collection displayed on the walls ❤️. You can enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner or just drinks in this very contemporary setting.

However, the restaurant is one area where, over the years, we have seen a bit of deterioration in both the quality of food and the service. We still feel that the Living Room is a great place for drinks, but for food we prefer other options in the city.

Other amenities

The additional hotel amenities are top notch.

  • Fitness center – open 24 hours, the fitness center is outfitted with any equipment you may need, including Peloton machines and a Fitness Mirror. Additionally, you can marvel at the New York City skyline while working out. 💯
  • Pool – a 25-meter saltwater pool and a multi-person jacuzzi make swimming and relaxing so easy. We have never seen this area busy on our travels. Oftentimes, we have had these amenities all to ourselves. 💯
  • Spa Nalai – a beautiful spa offering a variety of treatments customizable to your needs. The spa facilities and co-ed eucalyptus steam rooms are available to hotel guests free of charge. You can check and book treatment options here.
  • Rossano Ferretti Hairspa – a full-service hair salon offering Italian haircare and state of the art equipment. We have not tried the salon, but the setting is really beautiful.
