Sleek designer urban contemporary
Located right on West Broadway in New York’s Bohemian SoHo district, (that’s SOuth of HOuston Street) the SoHo Grand Hotel is surrounded by charming boutiques. This is the ultimate locale for nightlife, galleries and up-market shopping in this art-influenced district. Chinatown, Little Italy and Tribeca are close to the SoHo Grand Hotel, along with Washington Square and pretty Greenwich Village. Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty are all a short ferry ride away.
This stylishly modern hotel was the first boutique luxury hotel in New York’s SoHo district to be built in more than a century. Developed by Leonard and Emanuel Stern and designed by architect, David Helpern, this is the ultimate modern boutique hotel.
Interior designer William Sofield introduced animals prints and modern lines to the spacious rooms. His designer décor has neutral, restful colours using natural materials of leather, canvas and wood. Furnishings have clean lines and a simple look, making these loft-style rooms look chic and hip. The huge expanse of window looks out on local city views, giving an open feel to the rooms.
The luxury penthouse lofts in this top luxury hotel offer two bedrooms and wrap-around terraces whilst maintaining an understated urbane appeal. All guest rooms have flat-screen TVs, iPod, WiFi and DVD players. A complimentary goldfish can be requested as room companion for the solo traveller! With frette linen, bathrobes and a gourmet minibar, the rooms are very well appointed. The final touch is the complimentary sports bicycles for getting around the area.
The Grand Bar and lounge are the local ‘in’ places for gathering and they overlook West Broadway. A wide choice of food is available from simple snacks to classic American fare. This luxury hotel also has an up-to-the-minute fitness room. The ample choice of meeting rooms from the Chart Room to the Gallery are stylishly modern and offer rooms to accommodate every event.
This innovative luxury hotel in New York’s Downtown district will appeal to most young-at-heart adults looking for somewhere cool which does not compromise on service and luxury.
