Loews Regency Hotel, the landmark hotel in Midtown Manhattan, has reopened following a year-long $100 million transformation.
The redesign of the 379-room hotel represents the dynamic vision of Jonathan Tisch, Chairman of Loews Hotels & Resorts.
Located steps away from Central Park, Madison Avenue, and Museum Mile, the hotel features 328 apartment-styled guestrooms and 58 suites boasting crisp lines and a fresh aesthetic, four private meeting spaces equipped with state-of-the-art technology, and introduces The Regency Bar & Grill serving lunch, dinner and the highly anticipated return of the Power Breakfast.
The new Julien Farel Restore Salon & Spa flagship will complete the guest experience, once it opens in March 2014. The enhancements continue to evoke the spirit and traditions of the hotel’s storied past while offering guests contemporary luxury benefits and amenities, all from an unparalleled Park Avenue address.
“For more than 50 years, Loews Regency has captured the hearts of guests from around the world through distinctly personalized attention to individuals,” says Jim McPartlin, managing director, Loews Regency Hotel.
“By partnering with the city’s finest talents and experts, we’ve put the best of New York City at our guests’ fingertips, so that we can continue offering the sophisticated urban traveler an unmatched New York experience.”
New York City’s most talented design minds, including Rottet Studio, Meyer Davis Studio Inc, and Jonathan Nehmer + Associates were selected by Jonathan Tisch for the re-design of the hotel.
Blending modern design with clean and classic style, the expansive 24-foot high ceiling provides a grand entrance to the lobby that invites and energizes guests, bringing New York’s unmistakable Midtown vibe to life.
A bar just off the lobby and in the forefront of ‘The Regency Bar & Grill’ is the perfect place to watch the hustle and bustle of Park Avenue, while alluring seating and decor of the ‘Lobby Lounge’ is an inviting respite to relax and mingle with other guests and visitors.
The serene lobby designed by Rottet Studio offers a grand marble entrance with bespoke finishes and an urban sophisticated neutral palette. The ‘Lobby Lounge’ area with rich velvet sofas, complete with power and hardline internet outlets, sits under a breathtaking art installation by Brooklyn-based artist Nina Helms called Brise de printemps (spring breeze).
Loews Regency’s guestrooms, also designed by Rottet Studio, offer a fresh aesthetic combined with luxury, comfort and style. Guest rooms feature Frette linens and bathrobes, smart televisions and complimentary high-speed internet access.
Additionally, Loews Regency will debut six signature suites in spring 2014. Ranging in size from 700 square feet to 1,550 square feet, the suites will each feature their own design concept and unparalleled views over Park Avenue and 61st Street.
