Yotel New York opens its doors
Originally published on www.businesstravellerme.com 06/06/2011 - Filed under: News »
The 669-room Yotel New York - the largest hotel opening in the city this year - welcomed its first guests this week.
Part of Related Company’s 60-storey complex, Yotel is located off West 42nd Street and 10th Avenue in Times Square.
It is the first Yotel outside an airport and the largest to date, with its design serving as a blueprint for future city centre locations.
Joe Sita, President of IFA Hotel Investments, said: "Everything about this hotel, from its LEED-certified engineering and ergonomic workstations to the way luggage stores perfectly under the bed has been painstakingly designed with our guests’ convenience and comfort in mind."
Premium cabins are equipped with a space-saving motorised moving bed; monsoon shower; Technowall with TV, music and power services; a workstation and free wifi.
Its 18 First Class Cabins and 3 VIP 2-Cabin Suites offer private outdoor terraces and hot tubs. All guests receive free breakfast during their stay.
