The bright lights of "The Big Apple" are waiting to dazzle you. But it doesn't have to be all hustle and bustle - we know just the place that will provide a relaxing sanctuary at the heart of it all, giving you the best of both worlds. In New York's Midtown Manhattan where Hell's Kitchen meets Times Square, the boutique Kimpton Hotel Theta, an IHG hotel, offers a stunning urban oasis with the best of the city's sights at your fingertips.
In a jam-packed city, where space is limited, it's hard to find a spacious hotel, but the Kimpton Hotel Theta offers ample room to spread out and is the perfect home away from home during a visit to this incredible city. Set in an iconic building designed by a pioneering mid-20th-century architect, Morris Lapidus, it's now been thoughtfully reimagined into this high-end boutique hotel.
With modern details, it's flooded with warm lighting, and its elegant interior design is accentuated with sophisticated pops of colour and handmade items, offering a cosy and comfortable stay. Inspired by Theta brainwaves that occur during meditation, you can expect a calming and serene atmosphere. There are plenty of little surprising details, from exaggerated silhouettes to contrasting textures - inviting a closer look at every turn.
Café Otto, the hotel's coffee window, is the best place to get your daily caffeine hit and provides delicious pastries to be devoured in the beautiful lobby. With a lobby marketplace, you can also stock up on any essentials. That's not all - if keeping to your gym routine is important, then you're well-catered for here. The hotel even offers bicycle hire – a great way to explore.
When it comes to exploring, it's a case of where to start! On your doorstep, you'll find the vibrant Times Square with its mighty billboards, the famed Broadway theatre district and an incredible number of restaurants, bars and cool "speakeasies". Then there's Radio City Music Hall, Rockefeller Center and the Museum of Modern Art within 805m of the hotel, and that's all before heading any further afield.
If all this wasn't enough, the hotel is opening an Italian Riviera-inspired rooftop bar in Summer 2024, set to offer signature spritzes and delicious cicchetti – the perfect spot for an aperitivo or a nightcap to end a perfect day.
