[edit] Building
It is the tallest hotel in New York City at 23 stories high.[1] In the summer of 2006, the Four Seasons New York opened the L'Atelier de Joel Roubuchon as a replacement for the former restaurant Fifty Seven Fifty Seven.[citation needed]
[edit] Design
The hotel first achieved fame for its uber-luxurious interiors. I. M. Pei is the architect of the hotel. In 2004, in collaboration with Peter Marino, Pei came out of retirement to re-design the 51st Penthouse Suite floor. This is especially significant since Peter Marino is known to refuse collaboration in any hotel or resort development projects.[citation needed]
I. M. Pei was also the responsible for the interiors of the public spaces in the hotel.
[edit] Awards
- The hotel maintained a spot on the Conde Nast Traveler Gold List for ten consecutive years.[citation needed].
- Also the hotel has a reputation for appearing on both the AAA five diamond award list and the Mobil Travel Guide five star list every year since its opening in 1994.[citation needed]
