No Boys Allowed :: A Ladies-Only Floor in Manhattan?
The Premier Hotel (formerly the Premier at Millenium Broadway) has reopened in Times Square with a new feature: a women's floor.
For realsies. Travel Weekly has the scoop:
The 125-room Premier now has a floor exclusively for women. Accessible only with an elevator key card, the floor has seven rooms with yoga mats; plush robes and slippers; a lighted make-up mirror, wash mitts and bath salts in bathrooms; and women's magazines.
Ah, yes, yoga: the official sport of women!
This seems scary to us because the last time we experienced a floor full of women was in our college sorority house, but we survived the ordeal. So we're willing to admit that a women-only hotel floor in a super-busy American city may actually be a fantastic concept.
If a ladies-only floor can be executed tastefully -- and not full of pink crap or cutesy pictures of stilettos and lipstick and martini glasses -- we think this sort of thing is perfect for solo female travelers who might be interested in a little added safety.
Thanks CourtneyMay for the heads-up!
