Manchester United Takes Over the W Hoboken

Where: 335 River St [map], Hoboken, NJ, United States, 07030

Football fans are rejoicing now that the NFL lockout has ended but the other kind of football fans are getting boisterous now that the Major League Soccer All-Stars games are on this week. And in Manhattan this week to take on this side of the ponds' biggest footies stars are Manchester United, led by their star player and recent hair transplant recipient, Wayne Rooney.

And so where are they staying? Actually, they've headed across to the river to The W Hoboken. The Hudson Reporter reports:

The Manchester United team bus was spotted on Tuesday morning outside of the W Hotel in Hoboken, and reports say some former players will be at Mulligan’s bar on Tuesday afternoon at noon. Many visiting teams in Major League Soccer that play against the New York Red Bulls (based in Harrison, N.J.) stay at the W Hotel.

'Luvahs' to Take Over W Hoboken for Massive Speed Dating Event

Where: 225 River Street [map], Hoboken, NJ, United States, 07030

Sorry, we just can't get enough of New Jersey today!

Considering shacking up at the W Hoboken soon on a trip to the NYC-area? While we have no issues with the hotel itself (it's a new W on the waterfront), we feel you should be aware about what's going on there on January 29--The 'Find Your Luvah' speed dating event which aims to be the largest speed dating event in Guinness World Records history.

But not only that, girls at the event will be given free samples of a new lip plumping lip gloss called, Luvah, that's plumped with aphrodisiacs. Oh boy. From Hoboken411:

The ultra chic W Hoboken Hotel, located on the Hudson Riverfront facing midtown Manhattan, is gearing up for the event by preparing its Great Room to accommodate hundreds of speed daters looking for love in all the right places.

For added convenience to those traveling from New York City and from throughout New Jersey, W Hoboken has commissioned Acura to chauffeur participants back and forth to the Hoboken PATH Station throughout the evening.

And, as a congratulatory tribute to any matches made that evening, W Hoboken will invite the lucky-in-love pairs back for a round of complimentary cocktails.

Snapshot :: W Hoboken Has Risen!

Where: 335 River Street [map], Hoboken , NJ, United States, 07037

This afternoon on our way to the SoHo House (which you already know about because you checked the HotelChatter Twitter, obviously), we swung by the W Hoboken Hotel and Residences to check on its progress.

And: holy crap! It's up! It's lookin' good!

And by "it", we of course mean the white building in the center of the pic above, which someone we know has been stalking semi-feverishly for a few months now.

The website says the place is slated to open on February 26th, 2009, which we actually saw after we'd called the pre-opening sales office and were told its doors would be open by "uhh...like, January '09." Yeah, okay. We're gonna go ahead and put our money on the February date.
