Lombardy Hotel
The Lombardy Hotel is located at 111 East 56th Street (between Park Avenue and Lexington Avenue in New York City. The building was turned into a co-op in 1957. Built in the 1920s by William Randolph Hearst for his mistress, silent film star Marion Davies, The Lombardy has been the New York residence of film stars like Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton. Currently, the building still feels like a grand New York apartment house. The apartments are individually owned and decorated co-ops, mostly by wealthy non-US citizens.
The hotel lobby was renovated in October 2012 to refresh the design as part of an ongoing restoration. Construction for Richie Notar's (Nobu restaurateur) Lombardy Hotel Restaurant is scheduled to finish in December. The restaurant will feature "contemporary globalized food" that is "heavy on the seafood" with a big oyster bar.[1]
There are 154 one-, two- and three-bedroom suites, with marble bathrooms and entrances, and some studios available in addition to the apartments where the owners are in permanent residence.[2]
