The Shelburne Sonesta
The Shelburne Sonesta is a hotel in Murray Hill, Manhattan, housed in a building from 1929. It offers 325 rooms and suites ranging from traditional guest rooms to spacious apartment-style suites with kitchenettes and separate living areas.
The building was constructed in 1929 as a residential apartment house for New York residents. It later transitioned to hotel use while retaining architectural elements and details from its original residential purpose.
The name Shelburne reflects the building's origins as a residential space for New York residents. The original functioning USPS mailbox in the lobby is a visible reminder of this residential past and a point of interest for guests who notice the building's character.
The hotel has an all-day fitness center with modern equipment including treadmills and stationary bikes available to guests. The spacious lobby also includes a ping-pong table, and visitors will find a working post office and medical clinic on the first floor for added convenience.
The rooftop restaurant Vintage Green is the second largest rooftop bar space in the city with sweeping views of the skyline. The space features abundant greenery and floral decor, drawing guests who want to enjoy the illuminated city at night or watch the sun set from above.
