Hilton assured us in October that the latest postponement we recently reported in reopening the landmark Waldorf-Astoria hotel — until spring of 2025 — would be the project’s last delay.
A week ago, as if to give credence to that, Hilton trumpeted that the online room reservations site would go live on Dec. 10.
It did go live. But if spring’s the reopening target, why was the earliest reservation being offered not until Sept. 1?
Spokesperson Emma Silverman said, “No, the [spring] opening has not been shifted back. As we move closer to our opening date, we anticipate accepting reservations for dates beginning in spring 2025.”
That’s also when the Waldorf’s brasserie-style restaurant, Lex Yard, led by Gramercy Tavern chef Michael Anthony, is due to open. We look forward to it.
