Outside our doors stands a city within a city: Rockefeller Center. Developed by philanthropist and businessman John D. Rockefeller, this National Historic Landmark is known for so many things: the iconic Christmas tree, skating rink, television studios, art and architecture. Built in 1939, Rockefeller Center spans 22 acres, and its magnificence shines brighter as years pass. Experience stunning views of NYC from Top of the Rock. But remember it’s not just what’s above, but what’s below: the underground restaurant- and shop-filled concourse. A John D. Rockefeller quote inscribed on the plaque at the plaza states: “I believe in the supreme worth of the individual and in his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.” At Kimpton Muse Hotel, we hope your pursuit of happiness includes walking through our Rockefeller Center hotel and discovering the joys of our thriving Midtown retreat.
