The Art of the Stay

A Hotel That Looks Like Nowhere Else
in Midtown

The Fifty was redesigned with a clear point of view. Original paintings, sculptures, and local photography fill the space alongside midcentury-inspired furniture and materials, creating an atmosphere that feels considered and distinctly New York rather than interchangeable with any other Midtown address.

The lobby is built to be used: open-concept with dedicated workspace nooks that work as well for a morning call as they do for an afternoon wind-down.
