Waldorf Astoria
Famous Manhattan lodging
Waldorf Astoria is a luxury hotel brand, originally a single landmark hotel in New York City that opened in 1893 and moved to its famous Park Avenue location in 1931.
The name evokes old-money elegance and has become shorthand for high-end hospitality: They're staying at the Waldorf.
The Waldorf salad—apples, celery, walnuts, and mayonnaise—was invented there.
