Overview
At first glance, you might miss the Hotel Elysée amid the graceful, towering buildings that surround it. But this 1920s-era boutique hotel done up in French-country design is not to be missed. For decades, this fashionable boutique has served as the place to see-and-be-seen, playing host to legendary artists, such as playwright Tennessee Williams and soprano Maria Callas. Many modern-day guests have positive things to say, too, highlighting the Elysée's convenient midtown location and its quaint atmosphere – from complimentary continental breakfast in the mornings to free wine and cheese in the afternoons. While there is no on-site fitness center, the hotel does provide complimentary passes to a nearby gym. Previous visitors also praise the elegant accommodations, which feature extra touches like Gilchrist & Soames bath products, flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. Some recent visitors go as far as to say the hotel feels like a slice of Paris – without the jetlag. Another crowd-pleaser: the hotel's trendy Monkey Bar, as well as the sophisticated Club Room.

This intimate hotel is a favorite for travelers looking for good value in a desirable Midtown location.
All Old World charm and elegance, the 103-room, upscale Hotel Elysee is superbly located for the high-end department-store shopping of Midtown East and the Upper East Side, and has enough tales to keep history buffs entranced for an entire stay.
This is the famed hotel that was once a haunt for such artists as Tennessee Williams, Maria Callas, and Vladimir Horowitz (the piano he donated still sits in the Piano Suite). In it is the Monkey Bar, with its iconic murals still in place.
Adorned with antiques and classic detailing, this intimate hotel has been bedding the famous and fabulous since 1926.
