It’s a five-star hospital suite!
Jay-Z and Beyoncé’s little bundle of joy made her world debut in a spanking-new, ultra-luxe “executive suite” that made Lenox Hill Hospital more like a W hotel — with blond hardwood floors, couches, extra beds and four flat-screen TVs.
Pictures of the posh digs reveal for the first time the type of luxe amenities little Blue Ivy Carter’s music-royalty parents plan to provide their daughter.
The sweeping new VIP area has a total of seven rooms, each of which runs $700 to $800 a night, hospital spokeswoman Ann Silverman said. The newly renovated area has been in the works for about a year and was only recently completed, Silverman added.
The VIP area was “designed, planned and paid for by Lenox Hill Hospital,” she said.
The spokeswoman declined to say if Beyoncé and Jay-Z were the first to use the suite.
Decorated in calming ivory, gray and blue, the suite features a separate, full living-room area with upholstered couches and club chairs, satin throw pillows, a coffee table and brushed platinum lamps and accents, according to the photos posted by TMZ.com.
The sleek floors and walls and luxury window coverings give off a vibe that’s more luxe hotel than Lenox Hill.
There’s even a kitchenette stocked with dishes and tricked out with stainless-steel appliances and a gleaming subway-tile backsplash.
And there’s a state-of-the-art hospital bed, as well as a comfy guest bed, both made up with high-end, hotel-quality linens, blankets and plush comforters.
The photos surfaced a day after the state Health Department opened — and, hours later, shut — an investigation into alleged patient mistreatment at Lenox Hill during Beyoncé’s stay.
Lenox Hill Executive Director Frank Danza has said the hospital will look into those complaints.
The hospital is part of the North Shore Long Island Jewish Hospital network. North Shore CEO Michael Dowling is a top health-care adviser to Gov. Cuomo and worked in Mario Cuomo’s administration.
