Corinthia Hotels has announced it will take over management of The Surrey in New York’s Upper East Side, marking the brand’s debut in the United States.

Undergoing an extensive transformation, the hotel is slated to reopen in early 2023 as The Surrey, a Corinthia Hotel.

It is Corinthia group’s second collaboration with Reuben Brothers, the global private investment firm founded by David and Simon Reuben, who acquired The Surrey in 2020.

"Having a presence in the United States has been a goal for Corinthia for many years, especially in New York, a city that we consider one of the most vibrant and exciting places in the world," stated Simon Naudi, CEO of Corinthia. "We look forward to working closely with the Reuben Brothers to restore The Surrey to its former glory in time for its 100th anniversary."

Situated at the corner of East 76th Street and Madison Avenue, steps away from Central Park, The Surrey, a Corinthia Hotel will comprise both rooms and residences and draw inspiration from its illustrious history and elegant surroundings.

From presidents and royalty to actors and musicians, The Surrey has been a part of New York City's skyline and recognised for its exceptional, discreet service since it was built in 1926, beloved by both New Yorkers and visitors alike. 

The 97 guest rooms - including 33 suites and five signature suites - and 12 luxury residences will all be designed by award-winning studio, Martin Brudnizki.

The hotel will introduce a number of unique new dining destinations, including Casa Tua's renowned private members' club, as curated by founder Miky Grendene.
