ABOUT THE SHERRY-NETHERLAND
A timeless New York City classic, The Sherry-Netherland offers guests world-class accommodations and European-style service at this iconic Central Park hotel topped by its signature elaborate Gothic minaret. The mural on the ceiling of the intimate and hushed lobby was inspired by Raphael's frescoes in Cardinal Bibbiena's Loggetta in the Vatican Palace and in 2014 was refurbished to reflect its original splendor. From exemplary service - including concierge assistance, elevator attendants and valet parking - to spacious, individually decorated rooms and suites, many with decorative fireplaces, a stay at The Sherry has been an expression of privilege since 1927. All accommodations feature high ceilings, marble bathrooms, with some featuring the original pedestal sinks with silver-plated faucets from the 1920s. The famed Harry Cipriani restaurant, located off the lobby, is a near duplicate of the famed Harry's Bar in Venice, and serves classic Venetian food and Cipriani's signature Bellini cocktail. In January 2017, The Sherry-Netherland was recognized on Conde Nast Traveler Gold List 2017 for the first time in its history, and named the #1 Top Hotel in the United States in 2016 TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice™ awards, as well as the #22 Top Hotel in the World. The hotel is a proud member of both Preferred Hotels & Resorts, and the Mantis Collection. www.sherrynetherland.com
