Additional details

Situated in the historic New York Life Insurance Building originally built in 1894, Kimpton Gray Hotel takes its name from the Georgia Gray marble that’s lent the structure a sense of sophistication for well over a century. The ornate architecture on the granite exterior and in the lobby — with Art Deco light fixtures — is juxtaposed against contemporary-styled rooms with crisp furnishings. Dining options include: La Bella on floor one which serves breakfast, lunch and dinner. Vol. 39 on floor two is an intimate lounge with gilded caviar carts, cocktail classics and an extensive wine list. Boleo on floor fifteen is a top-of-hotel lounge with city sky views and a retractable roof for year-around enjoyment. Latin-influenced cocktails, enticing food, vibrant music and sleek-yet-lush design evokes a dynamic energy of South America. Event spaces are nothing short of inspiring at The Gray. Set on the 2nd, 14th and 15th floors, the rooms boast natural light from the original, refurbished large picture windows. Offers unique spaces which can be booked for events such as Robie Room with pool table. Boleo, our top-of-hotel lounge with retractable roof also available for semi or fully private events through all seasons.
