About The Gramercy Park Hotel:

One of New York’s truly legendary hotels, the Gramercy Park Hotel in Manhattan opened its doors in 1925. It was built on the site of flamboyant architect Stanford White’s home, where previously the townhouse that Edith Wharton was born in had stood.  At the Gramercy Park Hotel, artists, adventurers and bonvivants rubbed elbows. Humphrey Bogart was married in the hotel, humorist S.J.Perelman moved in because it reminded him of his native London and legendary Yankee Babe Ruth liked to drink at its famous bar, which has served as a watering hole to generations of artists, writers and musicians.
