This is the place Guy Lombardo made famous. The Roosevelt Hotel combines the classic styling of years gone by with today's modern conveniences. This prominent landmark situated on Madison Avenue and 45th Street in midtown New York City opened in 1924, and its historic heritage is reflected in meticulously restored interiors designed to capture the original architecture and modern-day amenities.

Just seven miles from La Guardia, 17 miles from JFK and 18 miles from Newark International Airports, the Roosevelt is convenient to just about anywhere. Only four blocks from Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall, the Roosevelt Hotel also is close to Times Square and Museum of Modern Art. Within a mile of the hotel guests can visit the Empire State Building, Central Park, United Nations and Madison Square Garden.

The Roosevelt became a paramount part of New Year's celebrations across North America when on New Year's Eve in 1924, Canadian bandleader Guy Lombardo and The Royal Canadians began the first broadcast of "Auld Lang Syne." In addition to the life- sized statue of Theodore Roosevelt in the lobby, the hotel reflects Old New York, with original Tiffany crystal chandeliers, gilt trim, coffered ceilings and wrought-iron balconies.

Guests can enjoy American cuisine and cocktails at the hotel's Teddy's Table and find good spots for lunch and cocktails at the Madison Club Lounge. Coffee, juice, breads and Italian pastries from one of New York's best-known Little Italy bakeries are available at the hotel's Ferrara Bar. Room service is available 24 hours. The hotel offers a 24-hour fitness center, a well-equipped business center, hair salon, gift shop and full concierge services.

Decorated in gold-and-green color schemes with red accents, guest rooms, which overlook Madison Avenue, come complete with contemporary and antique furnishings, 1920s-style armoires, scroll-print bedspreads, dual telephone lines with data port capabilities, work desks, ergonomic chairs and high- speed Internet access.
