The Surrey, A Corinthia Hotel

8 Hotels Where Celebrities Stay to Get Ready for the Met Gala | Vogue

"After a multi-year closure, this historic grand dame is back under the Corinthia Hotels umbrella with interiors by Martin Brudnizki; originally opened in 1926, its early clientele included John F. Kennedy and Bette Davis. Following a splashy fall 2024 reopening that adds the newly instituted restaurant and private club, Casa Tua, it’s poised to be a celebrity hotspot throughout Met Gala weekend—previous gala guests have included Hailey Bieber, Ashley Graham, and Serena Williams. For a red-carpet-ready experience, I head to the Sisley Paris spa for their “Prestige Glow: Met Gala Rejuvenation Facial.”" - Nicole Kliest, Christina Liao
