About us

The Artist Grand Hotel of Art is the only 5-star hotel in front of the Guggenheim. Having been completely newly renovated in 2018, luxury can now be found in its spacious ambience, its extraordinary service, the passion for art and design, as well as an elegant and cosmopolite style. Just like the artist who seeks to create something unique, at The Artist - Grand Hotel of Art, we have created a unique experience for our guests. From the space, where art is much more than decoration, to every experience. Here, eating, drinking, resting, or having fun becomes something extraordinary. Located opposite the Guggenheim Museum, The Artist enjoys a constant dialogue with it. Its impressive rooftop terrace, The Rooftop, its street-level bistro, The Gallery, and the secret and exclusive lobby bar, Sixty One 61, each converse in their own way with the museum and the city. Not to mention its gastronomic restaurant, Olio; the expression of local cuisine with a touch of "savoir faire" at the highest level. Inside, in a contemporary, modern, and sober atmosphere, art meets us as soon as we arrive in its impressive atrium, and then surprises us around every corner, on every wall or hallway. Its 145 rooms house various contemporary artworks. Some of them additionally feature another exceptional work through its windows: the Guggenheim itself. "When inspiration comes, let it find me working," said Picasso. That's why, at The Artist - Grand Hotel of Art, we offer our spaces to our visitors. Six versatile and multifunctional meeting rooms that can be adapted for events of up to 250 people. Located on the first floor, with natural light and views of the Guggenheim, they are the perfect space to let the muses whisper in your ear.

Hey there, I'm Jake Schwartz. It's great to meet you! I performed my first magic shows at 2 years old, making my food “disappear” for my parents at every meal. I quickly became obsessed with the moments a magic trick could create. | However, not everyone enjoys being “FOOLED” over and over by a kid, so I learned how to tell STORIES through my magic. Suddenly, people weren’t made to be the FOOL, they were PART of a STORY. | Since then, I've won international awards, appeared on television over 70 times, performed in 3 World Tours with the most viral sports team on the planet as The Savannah Bananas’ Magician First Base Coach, and subsequently launched my very own theater tour - "The Game Changing Magic Tour: The World's Only Magic Show For Sports Fans." | This personable, up-beat, and experiential style of magic allowed me to help companies listed on the fortune-500, mom-and-pop businesses, new start-ups, Major League sports teams, World-Series Champions, A-List celebrities, and private groups across the country break down walls, get to know each other, and create LASTING memories through magic. | If you're looking for a personable, engaging, and mind blowing experience for your group - send me/my team a message!
