THE PIERRE NEW YORK, A TAJ HOTEL, CELEBRATES $100 MILLION RENOVATION WITH GRAND SUITE PROMOTION

New York, March 26 /PRNewswire/ — To celebrate the grand re-opening of The Pierre, the US flagship of Taj Hotels on New York's Central Park, The Pierre announced it is offering 40% off its newly renovated Grand Suites. Ranging in size from one to three bedrooms, with up to 2,000 square feet of space, these classic interiors offer magnificent views of Manhattan and Central Park, and residential-style pied-a-terres for discerning guests.





The 11 Grand Suites, two with terraces that can accommodate parties up to 30, are designed with custom furnishings, hand-crafted finishes and elegant details, such as rich silk and brocade fabrics, Murano glass chandeliers, hand-knotted carpets and Bang & Olufsen audio systems.




Following a meticulous $100-million renovation, The Pierre, now offers 189 redesigned residential-style guest rooms, including 39 suites and 11 Grand Suites, all featuring a quiet feeling of luxury and complemented by superb services personally crafted to attend to each guest’s every need.



A particular treat for guests is dining at Le Caprice, which opened its first U.S. restaurant outside London in New York at The Pierre. Le Caprice has established itself as a social institution in London with its effortless style, coveted cuisine and well-heeled crowd.

Mirroring the London restaurant and maintaining its deep-seated commitment to the art world, Le Caprice New York houses a series of photographs of iconic sixties model Jean Shrimpton by legendary British photographer, David Bailey. Long-standing favourites from the London restaurant, such as Thai-Baked sea bass, will continue to appear within the newly designed New York menu.

Two E, a new bar/lounge in The Pierre, features classic cocktails and light fare in an Alexandra Champalimaud-designed space. Afternoon tea is served from 3-5 pm. Culinary selections include The Pierre Salad with langoustines.

Business groups hosting meetings and receptions at The Pierre may select from three new elegant boardrooms with state-of-the-art amenities that can accommodate groups up to 75. These business-centric rooms complement the hotel’s expansive social banquet spaces on the second floor that can accommodate private events for up to 1,500 guests.

Discounted Grand Suite rates begin at $3,900. For reservations, please call 1-800-743-7734 or visit www.tajhotels.com/pierre.
