Chelsea property’s design features local touches
The Hotel Indigo flag has made its debut in New York, at a 122-room property in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood. The new-build, 20-story hotel features a Blu restaurant, serving American-bistro fare with a local perspective, and Glass Bar, a rooftop lounge.
Elements of the neighborhood -- from bursts of color inspired by the nearby flower shops to the rich textures and fabrics of the Garment District and proximity to the Fashion Institute of Technology -- inspired the design and decor of the hotel. Images by renowned fashion photographer Marco Glaviano are used as large-scale wall murals in the guest rooms and public spaces of the hotel. The hotel features exterior lighting that creates a blue glow around the property in the evening.
“As one of the city's most eclectic and dynamic neighborhoods, Chelsea is the perfect location for the first Hotel Indigo in New York City,” said Janis Cannon, vice president, Global Brand Management, Hotel Indigo. "The Hotel Indigo model strikes a great balance for developers because it provides guests the refreshing design and intimate service synonymous with a boutique along with the consistency, reliability, and accessibility of a branded hotel.”
The Hotel Indigo New York City Chelsea is owned and managed by Fortuna Realty LLC, under a license agreement with a company in the InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG). There are currently 32 Hotel Indigo properties open worldwide, and more than 60 more are under development, either in the pipeline or in final negotiation.
