Accommodations
Andaz 5th Avenue features 184 guest rooms, including 54 suites. When world-renowned Tony Chi designed our rooms and suites, he played off the neighborhood's prewar architecture to create airy, extra-large spaces with 12-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and subtle details—like light fixtures that echo vintage subway lanterns. Our suites feature luxurious travertine bathrooms, and many include private balconies or lush terraces overlooking dynamic 5th Avenue. Group rates are available. 

Smaller event spaces may be used for green rooms.
