It has been revealed by hotel group Marriot International that they are to open a brand new building in New York, offering the highest hotel only accommodation option in the iconic city. To be developed at 1717 Broadway at 54th Street, the 230m high hotel will offer rooms with both the Residence Inn and Courtyard brands.

Many hotels in New York currently co-exist in buildings which are also used for residential and commercial activity. However, opening in late 2013, the new property by Marriot International will be the highest standalone hotel, offering 261 Residence Inn and 378 Courtyard rooms. Rooms for the latter brand will be located from floor six to floor 32, whilst Residence Inn rooms will grace the higher spaces from floors 36 to 64. Shops will be offered on the ground floor, whilst a second floor restaurant, fifth floor terrace and lounge, and 34th floor gym will also be offered for guests to enjoy.

Whilst the lower Courtyard rooms will be aimed towards business guests, tourists in the higher Residence Inn accommodation will be able to enjoy stunning views over Central Park and the rest of the city. And with New York remaining a top holiday destination, the new hotel is set to see high demand from visitors.
