Le Méridien New York, Fifth Avenue is now open for guests

With the launch of Le Méridien New York, Fifth Avenue, Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts, one of Marriott Bonvoy's® 30 outstanding brands, expands its presence on the high-end market.

The building, which takes its design influences from the mid-century modern style, is a 21-story architectural wonder with 165 elegantly appointed guest rooms and 17 suites for extended stays.

The hotel is decorated with vibrant geometric designs, clashing hues, and velvety textiles, as well as mid-century modern and New York City cultural icons. An acrylic wall sculpture that glows in the dark, a textile column that combines colour blocks and patchwork to form a patterned field are just a couple of the carefully curated works of art that adorn the lobby and serve as the building's defining design features.

The New York-themed rooms are decorated in the hotel's unique contemporary style and include original paintings representing a map of Manhattan connected by its many rivers. The rooms offer the Le Méridien trademark bed, MALIN+GOETZ bath products, 4K smart TVs, a raised workstation inspired by higher surfaces utilised by creative people, and many more.

The Latitude/Longitude Bar, located in the hotel's trademark Le Méridien Hub, serves the hotel's famous effervescent drinks in the evenings and serves up fresh beverages throughout the day. Allora, the property's all-day eatery, serves regional Italian dishes. In addition to the already mentioned in-room dining option, the hotel also has a free 24-hour fitness centre stocked with Life Fitness machines.

“Le Méridien has always inspired travellers to explore the world in style and savour the good life through the lens of its European spirit, and what better city to continue this legacy than in Manhattan, with our second hotel in the destination.

“As we continue to celebrate the brand’s momentous 50th anniversary this year, we’re delighted to expand on our global footprint and bring a distinct stay experience and chic signature programs to creative-minded travellers visiting New York City”
declared Jennifer Connell, Global Brand Leader of Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts and VP of Distinctive Premium Brands at Marriott International.

The new hotel, located on Fifth Avenue between West 30th and West 31st Streets, is close to several of New York City's must-see landmarks, such as the Empire State and Flatiron buildings, the NoMad neighbourhood, Herald Square, and, of course, Fifth Avenue's world-famous shopping centres.
