Boutique Hotel in Midtown Manhattan Offers a New Way to See the Best of NYC

NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Dec 23, 2014) - Seeing the best that New York City has to offer may feel like it'd take a relocation to accomplish. But the Renaissance New York Hotel 57 is accustomed to making miracles happen. (One look at its Jordan Mozer design proves as much.) Accordingly, the boutique hotel is offering a package that combines its convenient Midtown Manhattan location with expert tips, passes to attractions and breakfast. And travelers can experience it all by asking for the appropriately named Best of NYC package.

The promotion, which includes two adult NYC Explorer passes, affords visitors plenty of opportunity for customization. The passes grant their holders access to their choice of three out of more than 59 attractions, and guests can work with the hotel's concierge or R Navigator to develop the perfect itinerary for them.

R Navigators are experts on everything local, from the iconic Empire State Building to hole-in-the-wall restaurants. With their help, guests can depart from their boutique hotel in Midtown NYC to discover history and museums, galleries and architecture, bike rentals, Radio City Music Hall, walking tours on any topic imaginable (including "Gossip Girl") and more.

Visitors can research the different attractions in their guest rooms beforehand, thanks to the package's complimentary Internet access. Plus the package includes a pocket-size guidebook of all the NYC Explorer attractions (featuring discounts and coupons), as well as breakfast for two adults at the hotel's renowned Opia restaurant. Serving critically acclaimed French and New York cuisine, Opia welcomes guests to its 4,000 square feet of elegantly contemporary space with a full bar, lounge and brunch menu that is tempting enough to get a late start on sightseeing.

Visitors will find the hotel nicely positions them to enjoy many of the city's other attractions, even as they pursue a given itinerary. Central Park, Carnegie Hall and top NYC shopping (think Bloomingdale's Flagship Store) for example, are just steps away from the hotel.

The Best of NYC Package is available for two people or families of four, and it's valid through March 31, 2015. Rates start at $424 per night. To secure the package, travelers should use the promotional code CUE when making reservations.

Located in one of the city's most sophisticated neighborhoods, the Renaissance New York Hotel 57 matches its surroundings with couture design by Jordan Mozer. The 180 guest rooms embrace contemporary design features like birch paneling and marble bathrooms outfitted with Aveda bath products, while the 24 suites showcase New York's own brand of luxury with high ceilings, hardwood floors, terraces and exposed brick walls. Dining is just as impressive at the upscale Opia Restaurant and at the Rooftop Terrace where specialty cocktails are served with a side of dramatic city views. The Rooftop Terrace also makes an unforgettable location for private gatherings, with an additional 4,600 square feet of dedicated event space available for meetings and other functions. When guests want to explore the city, the hotel's address puts them near Museum Mile and some of the best shopping in NYC, so that guests can take a little bit of the Big Apple home with them.
