The Pierre, the iconic flagship of Taj Hotels on New York’s Fifth Avenue overlooking Central Park, re-opened on June 1, 2009 following a meticulous $100 million renovation to create new guestroom and bath interiors and reconfigure first floor public areas to accommodate a new restaurant and lobby lounge.
The first phase of the Pierre renovation was completed in January 2007, and included the Grand Ballroom, the Cotillion Room & Foyer. All banquet and meeting rooms are open, fully staffed and operative throughout the second phase of the renovation.
Even in a city where exclusive luxuries are the norm, there is one hotel that is far more rare and special than the rest. Possessing a fabled Central Park location in Midtown Manhattan and legendary history, The Pierre continues to set the standard for elegance and unrivalled hospitality.
The Pierre features the newest and most inviting guestrooms in the city. Staff outnumbers guests by a ratio of three to one, allowing us to focus on anticipating a guest’s every need. In addition, London's most fashionable restaurant is opening at The Pierre, attributing to a completely new experience, while preserving the warmth and understated elegance of The Pierre.

History
Meet Pierre
Charles Pierre Casalasco was born into the hospitality industry. His father, Jacques Pierre, was owner of the redoubtable Hotel Anglais in Monte Carlo, where Charles worked as a pageboy, rubbing shoulders with the Russian grand dukes and European royalty who patronized his father’s hotel.
When Pierre sailed into New York as a 25-year-old immigrant, he immediately made his mark as first assistant at the fashionable Sherry’s. Here, he became acquainted with members of the influential Four Hundred set, including J.P. Morgan, the Astors and the Vanderbilts. Having served these powerful financial figures for nine years at Sherry’s, Pierre then had the experience and connections to open Pierre’s on the Park at 230 Park Avenue.
Pierre’s Park Avenue restaurant was the place to be seen during the 1920’s. The crème de le crème went to Pierre’s to host debutante balls, society wedding receptions and ladies’ lunches. But at the height of his success, Pierre sold out and entered a joint venture with a group of Wall Street financiers, most notably Otto Kahn, E.F. Hutton and Walter P. Chrysler.
