Get ready to dig deep into your pockets if you plan to celebrate New Year’s Eve at this iconic Times Square venue.
The Knickerbocker Hotel is commemorating its 120th anniversary with an extravagant $120,000 New Year’s Eve package for couples. Dubbed as a “once-in-a-century celebration,” the hotel boasts this as “the city’s most elevated, turnkey New Year’s Eve experience.”
“This package redefines New Year’s Eve, offering a meticulously curated journey that blends luxury hospitality with bespoke styling, beauty, and wellness,” the hotel announced. “It all leads to an exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime view of the Times Square Ball Drop, just 150 feet away from the world’s most-watched countdown.”
Located at 42nd Street and Broadway, the upscale hotel is offering a lavish three-night stay in one of its suites. Guests will enjoy a decadent multi-course New Year’s Eve dinner at its renowned Charlie Palmer Steak IV, as well as a private pod on the St. Cloud Rooftop for an unparalleled view of the ball drop.
The rooftop pod includes bottle service and the dramatic art of champagne sabering, where a bottle of champagne is opened with a flourish by slicing off the top with a saber.
The next day, revelers at the hotel — which opened in 1906 and has welcomed famous guests like John D. Rockefeller and F. Scott Fitzgerald and is rumored to be the birthplace of the martini — receive dinner at Akoya, the sushi restaurant on its premises.
The hefty price tag also includes perks from Nordstrom’s NYC Flagship on West 57th Street, which is partnering with the Knickerbocker to pamper its NYE guests with a blowout, manicure and pedicure, hair, makeup and wardrobe curation — and a $25,000 clothing and accessories credit.
On Jan. 1, revelers will get lunch at Nordstrom’s Italian-inspired restaurant Wolf.
Throughout their three-day stay, guests will also receive luxury car service between The Knickerbocker and Nordstrom, as well as gifts from both brands, including a Times Square Ball crystal.
