The New York Plaza hotel's new Great Gatsby suite In advance of the premiere of The Great Gatsby in May, Fairmont Hotels" The Plaza in New York has announced it is to open The Fitzgerald Suite, named after Gatsby author F. Scott Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald regularly visited the hotel with his wife Zelda, and the suite is intended as a tribute to his legacy as well as a celebration of the forthcoming film. Its interiors were developed in consultation with Oscar-winning production designer Catherine Martin, who has worked on this most recent adaptation of The Great Gatsby and is married to its director, Baz Luhrmann. Located on the 18th floor of the building, the 900sq ft suite includes various Art Deco flourishes and pieces of period furniture, in addition to pictures of the author and his wife, and photos of the cast of the 2013 film taken by Douglas Kirkland. More unexpected additions to the décor include gramophone-shaped iPhone-compatible speakers and vitrines that will house sporting trophies supposedly won by Tom Buchanan, a prominent character in the film. As well as being a favourite retreat for its author, The Plaza also featured in The Great Gatsby book. The story's penultimate scene takes place in the hotel, and the building is also featured in the film (although these shots are recreations of the site as they weren't filmed on location). For those who are unable to stay in the Fitzgerald Suite, the hotel is also currently hosting a 1920s-inspired brunch and a 1920s-inspired afternoon tea, serving Gatsby-inspired cocktails in its champagne bar, and hosting live jazz bands during its regularly Gatsby Hours at The Rose Club. The suite opens on May 10, and costs from £1,800 per night per couple. Read our expert New York city break guide here.
