IHG Signs 5th Hotel Indigo in New York City

InterContinental Hotels Group has signed its fifth Hotel Indigo in New York City.

The Hotel Indigo NYC Financial District hotel, set to open in 2016, will be located on one of New York’s oldest streets, Maiden Lane.

The 76,500 square-foot new-build hotel will be a block from the new One World Trade Center, designated as the tallest building in America and expected to be a significant anchor for Lower Manhattan’s business and leisure visitors.

The hotel’s ownership is investing $32 million in the 25-story, 190-room hotel, situated on Maiden Lane between Nassau Street and Broadway.

The hotel will have approximately 1,450 square-feet of meeting space, a fitness center and a rooftop lounge. Guestrooms will feature plush bedding, hard-surface flooring with area rugs, and spa-inspired bathrooms. Guests and locals will enjoy a great neighborhood bar with seasonal and locally sourced food in a stylish environment. The hotel will feature the brand’s new Neighborhood Guide, an innovative touchscreen display that connects guests to each other, the local neighborhood and to Hotel Indigo locations around the world. Hotel team members, many of whom are locals themselves, will share their favorite hidden gems with guests looking to explore and discover the neighborhood.

This will be the fifth Hotel Indigo hotel in New York City. The brand currently has locations in Brooklyn and Chelsea, with two additional properties planned for the Lower East Side and Flushing, Queens.

“We are also developing the Hotel Indigo project in Flushing, and we look forward to continuing our relationship with IHG,” said Thomas Wang, 10-12 MLane, LLC. “We appreciate the opportunity that only the Hotel Indigo brand provides, to bring each of these distinct neighborhoods to life, along with the consistencies of an established global brand.”

The Hotel Indigo NYC Financial District, owned by 10-12 MLane, LLC, will be franchised by an affiliate of IHG.
