Mid-town Holiday Inn New York

IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) has announced the opening of the new-build Holiday Inn New York City Midtown.  The 20-storey hotel features just 120 guest rooms, small by New York standards, and a rooftop lounge with a spectacular view of the City skyline.

Centrally located at 30 West 31st Street, the new US$52m property is just a short cab ride from the three major airports serving the metropolitan area; a short walk to Times Square and the Empire State Building; near Broadway theatres and Madison Square Garden; and by dozens of restaurants and night life locations.  Penn Station is less than half a mile away, or a 10-minute walk, and Grand Central not that much further.

For business travellers, the hotel is located near major corporations such as Reuters, Morgan Stanley, Condé Nast and Credit Suisse.  A business centre and high-speed wireless internet service throughout the hotel adds convenience in addition to the 24-hour fitness centre and concierge services.  A full service restaurant is provided.  Standard Holiday Inn guest room accommodation features comfortable queen- or king-sized beds, a sitting area with a lounge chair, 32-inch television, cable television, hairdryer, coffeemaker, iron and ironing board. www.holidayinn.com
