Renaissance New York Midtown Hotel

The newly minted U.S. flagship property for Renaissance Hotels offers a one-of-a-kind digitally-enhanced experience with corridor walls responding to movement. Designed to interact with visitors, the technology elements also include a Discovery Portal, in partnership with us folks at Time Out, showcasing different New York City neighborhood guides. But the Renaissance’s novel digital features are just icing on the cake, as the aesthetic is stunning and modern. The lobby features hand-picked work by local New York artists and contemporary furnishings. While the rooms are a relaxing haven with a calming color palette, wood paneling, floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the spangled Manhattan skyline and luxurious marble bathrooms. The hotel’s facilities also make it easy to linger, with options such as an 8000-square-foot roof deck (the largest in NYC), Rock and Reilly’s Irish Pub and a stylishly designed lobby bar.
