Melia Hotels International is to open its first property in New York City next month.
The 313-room Innside hotel is located in the NoMad (“North of Madison Square Park”) district of the city at 132 West 27th Street, and will feature bistro-style Italian restaurant Impero Caffe with outdoor terrace.
Rooms offer floor-to-ceiling windows, Nespresso coffee machines, 42-inch TVs with USB and Bluetooth connectivity, and complimentary minibars.
Other facilities include a 24-hour gym, and two meeting rooms with capacity for up to 95 people.
Commenting on the news Gabriel Escarrer, vice chairman and CEO of Meliá Hotels International, said:
“Establishing a presence in New York City has always been a dream for Meliá Hotels International. Innside New York Nomad will be a great foundation as we look to continue our expanded growth into the North American market in 2016.”
Melia debuted its Innside brand in the UK last year, with the opening of the 208-room Innside Manchester (see news May 12, 2015).
The group is also set to open a Me by Melia property in Miami next month. The 129-room Me Miami will feature two rooftop swimming pools and spa facilities.
