"A Manhattan icon with a legacy dating back to 1926, the InterContinental New York Barclay boasts timeless guestrooms, a 1920s-inspired restaurant and a prime location in Midtown East."

A staple of the New York City hospitality scene since it opened nearly a century ago, the InterContinental New York Barclay is an iconic Manhattan getaway set in Midtown East. The hotel’s legacy dates back to 1926 – the height of New York City’s iconic Jazz Age – and the property retains much of that historic glamour, all fused with a sense of luxury that feels perfectly modern. Guests who enjoy exploring their locales on foot will particularly appreciate the InterContinental’s address: beloved Big Apple landmarks like Rockefeller Center and the shops of Fifth Avenue can be reached in less than ten minutes, while attractions like the Museum of Modern Art and Times Square require about a fifteen-minute stroll. For everything else, Grand Central Terminal is just three blocks away.
Graceful guest rooms number 702 in all and are imbued with a shared sense of timeless elegance. Restrained colour palettes of ivories and greys dominate the spaces, which are designed in a residential style that calls to mind the Park Avenue pied-à-terres we all wish we had. Rich wood furnishings add some warmth to the spaces, as do the addition of colourful pieces like yellow tufted wingback chairs. On the walls, you’ll find Hudson River School-style artwork hung in the quintessential NYC gallery wall fashion. Upgrade from an entry-level Classic Room to a high-floor option for a stay that’s elevated in more ways than one, or, for the most extravagant occasions, book the Harold S. Vanderbilt Penthouse. Breathtakingly lavish and magnificent from tip to toe, this is the InterContinental’s most coveted accommodation, and for good reason. Alongside a laundry list of other perks, this palatial space boasts an enormous 1,300-square-foot private terrace – furnished, of course – that features awe-inspiring views of the Chrysler Building.
There is just one restaurant to be found at the hotel, though you’ll have no shortage of options, naturally, right outside your front door. Called The Parlour, the hotel’s eatery harkens back to the glamour of the 1920s, both in its ambience and its culinary offerings. Stop by in the morning for a quintessential Big Apple breakfast – meaning a bagel, of course – and for a decadent menu later on in the day, where you can enjoy everything from Montauk lobster rolls and scallop risotto to freshly shucked oysters and burrata with beets and truffle honey. Be sure to leave room for a classic cocktail or two and a slice of New York cheesecake to top it all off.
