Property Description for 111 East 56th Street, 204

Now offering furnished/short-term: please inquire about availability/dates perfect landing pad off of Park AvenueOne-of-a-kind Luxury furnished studio with king bed in the Lombardy Hotel with Gym, Front Desk, Bellman, Doorman, all bed linens, towels, toiletries, wifi, electricity, heat, A/C included. Perfect pied a terre where you can enjoy the luxury and convenience of hotel living. The Snug and unique space is available for short/long term, please inquire. Cozy and intimate, this gemutlich studio in the iconic Lombardy Hotel is dubbed THE SNUG for its historical Edwardian /Arts & Crafts ambience and efficient use of a small "snug" space. King bed, original white-tiled full bath, kitchenette niche, housekeeping available, and gym, make this the perfect sanctuary for your stay in NYC. William Randolph Hurst, the great media mogul and inspiration for "Citizen Kane" built the gorgeous Lombardy Hotel as a Deco limestone fortress for his mistress, silent film star Marion Davies (the inspiration for "Rosebud"). The Lombardy has been the New York residence of film stars like Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton and almost a century later still feels like a grand New York apartment house. The apartments of the Lombardy are individually owned and decorated co-ops, and this intimate studio, affectionately dubbed THE SNUG, is a historical Midtown gem, the perfect quiet hideaway for your rest, relaxation, and enjoyment. Please note: this is a unique old-style hotel room in a 4-star historic hotel, but it is a small studio with the owner's unique and inviting decor. The space includes the 9 17 bedroom with king bed, an en suite original bathroom (classic Deco style white tile with deep bathtub), 4' clothing closet, and 3' kitchenette niche (featuring undercounter refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and electric kettle). THE SNUG's period decor and and original fixtures transport you back in time to a New York hotel room from The Great Gatsby. It is small, yes, but as it is in the back of the building --on 56th Street facing north-- it is insulated from street noise. While the tall oak wainscoting, oriental rugs, brocade drapes, and stained glass are unique to this room, even people with a taste for the modern can appreciate its ergonomic features: a drop-front Edwardian desk offers laptop surface and cabinet storage so you can unpack your clothes and/or store your suitcase in the closet (or underneath the secretary), the wall-mounted 52" flat-screen TV makes viewing from bed a breeze, and the seating area with two mohair Deco chairs features a coffee table that raises to dining-table height for enjoying your take-out meals and coffee. Your 48" window faces north and allows ample filtered light.

Midtown East | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Midtown West and Midtown East have a lot in common. They’re bustling, iconic, and full of people. But just like siblings, their personalities can be vastly different. Midtown East is a bit more sophisticated and doesn’t quite have the vivacity and unruliness that its westerly counterpart exudes. 

Midtown East is bordered by 42nd to the south, 59th Street to the north, 5th Avenue to the west, and 3rd Avenue to the east. 

The neighborhood is famous for its high-end stores, tourist attractions, posh hotels (budget ones too), and iconic architecture. Midtown East is also one of the largest financial and business hubs in Manhattan. During normal business hours the sidewalks are full of commuters and people moving from point A to point B. In the early evening, when the masses have left for the day, things suddenly get a little quieter and the sidewalks have a lot less foot traffic.  

Although largely a commercial neighborhood, residential areas of Midtown East do exist on the eastern section of the neighborhood. 

Grand Central Station is located in Midtown East and like Midtown West, it’s an extremely commutable neighborhood. The 4, 5, 6, 7 and S trains whisk people in and out of the neighborhood 24 hours a day. Grand Central Station also serves as a hub for New York State and Connecticut commuter rails. These trains can take you anywhere along the Hudson River or up into Connecticut. It’s perfect for day tripping.
