The Majestic Hotel is a large luxury hotel located in northern Star Junction, Liberty City, in Grand Theft Auto IV and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars.

Description[]
3D Universe[]
Prior to its debut in the Grand Theft Auto series, the Majestic Hotel made a minor appearance in Manhunt 2, located at the Maibatsu Plaza in City Center, Cottonmouth. The hotel only appears during the episode "Assassination"; however, it cannot be accessed by the player and plays no role in the storyline.
HD Universe[]
It is the setting for the mission Late Checkout, in which Niko Bellic must kill the Jewish diamond dealer Isaac Roth in his penthouse. During the mission, the player can access the penthouse by either using the elevator in the lobby or the window cleaning platform outside of the building. Messina Consigliere Harry Hall is also said to run a high class prostitution ring out of the Majestic.
During gameplay, the player can land a helicopter on the roof of the hotel and enter the penthouse room from the mission. In Multiplayer, the doors to the hallway in the penthouse may open on a glitch occasion (video is on the links at the bottom).
The radio stations Jazz Nation Radio 108.5 and Electro-Choc are heard on the ground floor and in the penthouse, respectively. In EFLC, the radio station playing is Self-Actualization FM.
Influence[]
The Majestic Hotel is based on the Ritz-Carlton in Central Park (50 Central Park South), a luxury hotel; the top has been slightly altered and signs have been added however.
Collectibles[]
In The Ballad of Gay Tony, a parachute pickup spawns on top of an AC unit, armor also spawns near the barbeque pit.

- There is a propane tank on the upper part of the roof, which players tend to crash into while landing their helicopters.
- The Majestic is a popular hangout in multiplayer, and also for singleplayer and multiplayer police rampages.
