Meanwhile, Gansevoort Park To Open This Summer at $495 a Night
One of the hotel's rooftop lounges, The Blue Room, will be located on the 18th floor.
There's a silver lining in store for the Gansevoort Hotel Group. Despite the difficulties at the Gansevoort South, the upcoming Gansevoort Park Ave South is still on track for a Summer 2010 opening. We last heard it would be in June but an official opening announcement has given it a broad Summer opening time schedule instead.
The main attraction at Gansevoort Park, a 19-story hotel with 249 guestrooms, will be its heated indoor-outdoor rooftop pool and tri-level rooftop with unobstructed views of the Empire State Building. There will also be an exhale Spa on-site, an Italian restaurant from The One Group called Aselina, a duplex corner retail space and a Cutler salon. (Cutler is also the toiletry brand used within Gansevoort hotels.)
As for the rooms, the opening announcement promises "generously proportioned" spaces with most rooms and suites having balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows but more importantly, free WiFi. The vibe is expected to be more 40's glam than downtown chic and sensual art from photographer Deborah Anderson will be integrated throughout the entire hotel. (Her work is seen at the original Gansevoort and the Gansevoort South)
And so, what will it cost to spend a night at this new hotel? $495 a night. Of course, we expect the hotel to have some introductory rates upon opening but with so many other hotels in the area (the Ace, Carlton and the upcoming Eventi), we wonder if those rates could come down just a notch. As always, we'll keep you updated.
