Forbes Travel Guide has named Baccarat Hotel New York as a new Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star Hotel. Baccarat Hotel New York is one of only two New York City hotels to receive the Five-Star award since 2016.
Baccarat Hotel New York is the first hotel and global flagship for Barry Sternlicht and SH Group. Directly across the street from the Museum of Modern Art and steps away from Fifth Avenue’s legendary shopping, the hotel occupies the first 12 floors of the split-level tower that rises 550 feet above West 53rd Street. Skidmore, Owings & Merrill served as architects for the 50-story tower, while Paris-based Gilles & Boissier designed the interiors.
