First Look Inside Vikram Chatwal's Stay.Hotel in Times Square

This morning, we brought you news of today's opening of Vikram Chatwal's Times Square property Stay.Hotel (the period is apparently part of the name).

Within hours, a sneaky Midtown tipster was kind enough to send along a couple snapshots and give us the lowdown on the scene:

In true Vikram fashion, they are still doing plenty of work on opening day. Looked mostly like a staff walk-through day, though guests appeared to be there.

The lobby is split into two areas -- bright and vibrant check in and some sort of timber ceiling bar area [Ed: we're guessing that's the Aspen Social Lounge], very trippy. Lobby/bar is actually respectably spacious for a Times Square hotel. And it is kind of nice to see some trippy hotel interior designs in these gloomy financial days for NYC.

Two more shots after the jump.
