Overview

Following an extensive restoration preserving The Benjamin Royal Sonesta's legacy and redefining the future, the hotel is honored to debut newly renovated sophisticated interiors, featuring stylish furnishings infusing a residential feel and unique touches. Custom artwork with an ode to New York City is integrated throughout the luxurious guestrooms and suites. While the lobby strives to capture the spirit of Midtown, the hotel’s guest rooms and suites are where our guests come home.

Ideally situated on the corner of 50th and Lexington Avenue in midtown Manhattan, The Benjamin Royal Sonesta offers quick access to the best luxury boutiques on Fifth Avenue, Rockefeller Center, St. Patrick’s Cathedral and the headquarters of many Fortune 500 companies.

Live Royally. With its modern and residential-style designs, the Benjamin Royal Sonesta offers oversized rooms and suites, (many with kitchenettes, living rooms, and private terraces) providing a sense of glamour in New York City.

Sleep Royally. The unique Rest & Renew program provides tools to ensure the best possible night’s sleep with access to our curated ten-choice pillow menu, on-demand meditation, sleep masks, ear plugs, blackout curtains, noise machines, and a complimentary selection of books through the partnership with Bedside Reading.

Dine Royally. Dine at the new Parliament Restaurant, offering thoughtfully crafted menus for power breakfasts, business lunches and afterwork cocktails, inspired by the energy of Midtown. The modern American cuisine developed by Executive Chef Rakmin Lee, offers a refined yet approachable all-day dining experience.

Breakfast highlights include egg specialties, the staple Avocado Toast, and signature dishes such as Catsmo Smoked Salmon and Croque Madame. The robust lunch offerings are designed to cater to the busy Midtown business lunch crowd with a variety of salads including The Parliament Salad, the Forestiere Flatbread and “signatures” which include a Pan Roasted Salmon and a vegetarian Roasted Fall Veggie Penne.

For guests lingering into the evening, The Parliament transitions into an intimate dining scene with small plates such as the Warm Artichoke Dip, Steak Tartare, Ricotta Meatballs, and entrees including Herb Roasted Chicken, Grilled Branzino and the classic Parliament Burger. The beverage program led by Sommelier Nicolas Prieto, features curated cocktails and low-ABV options, ideal for relaxed meetings or unwinding after a productive day.

The restaurant design boasts dark woods, stone, brass accents, and nods to vintage art, creating a classic and timeless atmosphere drawn by the architect Emery Roth and The Benjamin’s historic landmark building. The keystones above the arches contain corbels topped by sculptures of owls. Inspired by the term for a group of owls, The Parliament reflects a sense of wisdom, community, and conversation.

Relax Royally. The on-site Royal Reflection Wellness Spa offers a variety of services including relaxing massages, rejuvenating facials, and acupuncture treatments to restore one’s mind, body, and spirit.
