Conrad New York

The Conrad New York made a big splash when it finally opened in March, bringing with it 463 rooms, more than 30,000 square feet of meeting and conference space, an in-house restaurant Atrio, and a rooftop terrace with prosecco on tap. Among the areas available for events are the 6,200-square-foot Gallery ballroom, the 3,200-square-foot West ballroom, and six breakout studios ranging from 531 square feet to 1,276 square feet. Restaurateur Danny Meyer's Union Square Events is the exclusive food and beverage partner for the conference and event spaces.
