Party On! Grand Hyatt New York

NEW YORK, NY (March 9, 2010) – The ballroom at the Grand Hyatt New York, which has welcomed presidents John F. Kennedy and Bill Clinton, the Rev. Martin Luther King, and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has undergone a $12 million renovation and is again welcoming guests. The 18,000 square foot space accommodates 100 to 1,500 guests and can be elegantly divided into five function or meeting units. Progressive audio-visual equipment has been installed along with permanent drop-down projection screens. Advanced LED lighting control system can create multiple hues and color tones to reflect the mood of each event. Both the ballroom and foyer feature enhanced communications and data packages, such as Category 6 branded communications infrastructure, to meet the needs of today’s meetings.

Special touches of the Empire Ballroom include metal grillwork reminiscent of neighboring Grand Central Station, original tin tiling throughout the function spaces, chandeliers comprised of 7,000 individual hand-blown pieces of art glass (creating a “champagne cloud”), and more. To learn more about Grand Hyatt New York, call 1-800-233-1234 or 1-212-883-1234.
