After a $100,000 million redesign, the W New York — Union Square is back in business, baby.
To complete the gargantuan remodel, W Hotels tapped the Rockwell Group (the team that originally designed the property when it opened in 2001) to breathe new life into the 1911 beaux arts building that houses 256 rooms.
The focus in the updated W is the Living Room, where, as Marriott shared in a statement about the project, "timeless design hums with a distinctly modern pulse that ignites curiosity and expands worlds." Taking design inspiration from Grand Central Station, the chic Living Room area offers locals and travelers a communal place to unwind with a Devocion coffee or craft cocktail and small plates.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on The Points Guy Articles.
