The 189-room Mondrian Park Avenue has opened in New York City’s NoMad neighbourhood. Owners SBE initially conceived the property as an SLS hotel; the project evolved following SBE’s late 2016 acquisition of the Morgans Hotel Group, which owned the Mondrian brand.
The new hotel is in a former office building erected in 1918. The property offers 7,000 square feet of meeting space, as well as the 120-seat Cleo restaurant, which offers a modern twist on the ingredients and cultures of the eastern and southern Mediterranean. Two happening evening spots are on-site: Fifteen Stories, a rooftop lounge and adjacent outdoor terrace, will feature music and other activities nightly, serving drinks and light bites from a central bar; and Yours Truly, a subterranean nightclub, takes the fun underground.
