The property will feature 76 guestrooms and suites. At the heart of the property will be The Wolseley New York, the restaurant brand’s first U.S. location and the culinary flagship for North America. Complementing the restaurant will be a cellar-level speakeasy bar and a wellness and well-being center.
“The launch of The Wolseley Hotels marks an exciting new chapter for Minor Hotels,” said Dillip Rajakarier, group CEO, Minor International, parent company of Minor Hotels. “Inspired by the enduring success of The Wolseley in London, our vision is to create hotels anchored in culinary excellence, architectural character and a genuine sense of occasion. The Wolseley Hotel New York establishes our first flagship and sets the standard for the brand’s global expansion.”
Aviv Laurence, CEO, BJGH, the owner of the hotel, added, “Introducing The Wolseley restaurant and bar to the U.S. through our New York flagship is a defining moment. Together with Minor Hotels, we are creating a destination that celebrates heritage, hospitality and the enduring appeal of classic European luxury.”
As the inaugural property under The Wolseley Hotels brand, The Wolseley Hotel New York represents Minor Hotels’ entry into the U.S. luxury hotel segment. The New York flagship establishes the foundation for a global rollout, with future properties planned for cities across Europe, North America, Asia and the Middle East.
