Born from the Gilded Age and the vision of John Jacob Astor IV, this brand didn’t just join the luxury market—it wrote the rules for it.  We explore the hotel's fascinating (and tragic) history, including its connection to the sinking of the Titanic and the "400 Club" of New York high society.  We also break down how you can maximize your stay with "hidden" freebies like signature butler service, daily champagne sabering, and garment pressing.
