I’m incredibly proud of the elevated customer experience we offer our guests at voco. We aim to be a comforting, friendly face for guests and are delighted to play a part in helping visitors experience quintessential New York City.”

After a long day of exploring and sightseeing, guests can escape the bustle of Midtown Manhattan at the quiet greenhouse and outdoor terrace, which features a mural by Manhattan-based mural and studio artist Tony “Rubin” Sjöman. The beautifully designed space provides a welcoming respite that is both relaxing and rejuvenating.

Gina LaBarre, Regional Vice President, voco hotels, added: “We saw an opportunity to capture the best of both worlds when it comes to a Manhattan hotel – premium, yet approachable – and are incredibly proud to officially open our newest New York City property in under a year from signing this deal with the hotel owner. As we see travel returning both for business and leisure, Times Square South is a prime location and opportunity to share the relaxed, charming voco experience, while still delivering excellent, hosted service.”
