Ever since the first property <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/1/8/115746/8097/hotels/HotelChatter_Goes_Inside_NYLO_Plano">opened up</a> in <b><a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Nylo+Hotel+Plano/local/977">Plano, Texas</a></b> at the end of 2007, we watched an equally well-received property open out in <b><A href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/NYLO+Hotel+Warwick/local/1286">Warwick, Rhode Island</a></b>, then the company announced <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/1/30/11833/7899/hotels/NYLO_Hotels_Announce_Spin_Off_Brand_XP_Hotels">a spinoff brand</a> called <b><A href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/XP%20Hotels">XP</a></b> &#151; and then went kinda quiet. <p>But this week, the Atlanta-based chain made some big announcements at the ALIS conference in (American Lodging Investment Summit) in San Diego that they've got plans for three more properties in Dallas, Chicago and New York, not to mention another half-finished property coming up in Dallas. <p>Oh, and to remind you: the NYLO name comes from "NY Lofts."

It's <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/NYLO%20Hotels">NYLO!</a><p>We just got off the phone with the hotel, whose grand opening extravaganza is going on -- and from what we could hear in the background, the lobby sounds hip and happening today. And there actually may still be space for the hotel's very first official evening open: according to the staffer we talked to, there is still a bit of availability for tonight, with rates starting around $119. Give them a call and check it out -- or just stop by for a drink if you're in the area. <p>In the meantime, Jenna 2008-09-02T15:47:20-05:00 41.7267686 -71.471503 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2008/8/19/111133/381 <![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/1425/NYLOWarwickRestaurant.jpg" class="imgborder"><p> <i>A rendering of NYLO Warwick's restaurant.</i><p>At last we have a (soft) opening date for the second <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/NYLO%20Hotels"><b>NYLO Hotel</b></a>. <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/NYLO+Hotel+Warwick/local/1286"><b>NYLO Warwick</b></a> in Rhode Island will be opening on September 2nd. The grand opening will follow on September 18th.<p>The Warwick property will be a little different in terms of vibe than its Texan sister.<blockquote><p>With New England¹s rivers and bays as its muse, this NYLO has a witty vibe that celebrates its locale. The bar takes design inspiration from fish gills. In the restaurant, chandeliers recall dry sea coral, and tables have Plexiglas tops with embedded sea sponges.</blockquote></p><p>In fact, NYLO is even calling this place Soho-by-the-Sea. Kinda cute.
