NYC Welcomes Marmara

May 17, 2014
Daily / Feature

Marmara Collection is coming to the Big Apple with the opening of its flagship property, Marmara Park Avenue, in August. Located on 32nd Street between Park and Lexington Avenues, the property includes custom-designed and individually produced items from artisans across New York City’s five boroughs. Local artist/designer Joe Ginsberg created an environment where guests feel like they’re coming home. In addition to the bespoke pieces found throughout the hotel, other items were handpicked from design-forward purveyors; nothing was sourced from hotel industry suppliers.

A hallmark of the property will be its service, a combination of European gentility and discreet New York efficiency. In-room iPad Airs will connect to a 24/7 virtual concierge. The 128 guestrooms will be a mix of suites, guestrooms and penthouse suites, featuring apartment-style configurations and fully equipped kitchens. Soaring ceilings allow for plenty of natural light, and 40 rooms offer private terraces.

Nearly 1,4000 square feet of event space can be divided into two rooms or rented as one spacious venue. The area is outfitted with state-of-the-art technology. The Marmara Park Avenue’s Wellness Center includes a lap pool, cleansing steam bath and a comprehensive fitness center.

The Marmara Collection, founded in 1978 in Istanbul, boasts a collection of seven properties throughout Turkey.

Review: “Yacht La Pinta”

Embarkation/Disembarkation: The journey to the expedition ship proves an adventure in itself, consisting of several bus rides and smaller boat trips before reaching Yacht La Pinta. The 48-passenger vessel treated us like family from the get-go, inviting every passenger into the main room for a meet-and-greet before letting us discover our cabins and unpack.

Review: Gran Marbella Resort & Beach Club

Costa del Sol regularly attracts throngs of sunseekers who’ve come to bask on the pebble-and sand-covered shoreline and soak up the vibes of an Andalusian summer. And with the recent partial solar eclipse and the promise of full totality sweeping across the area Aug. 2, 2027, the southern Spanish region is especially en vogue. That includes Marbella, the glitzy playground dotted with boutique hotels, exclusive coastal enclaves and elevated Mediterranean dining. But even when celestial bodies aren’t putting on a show, one new property delivers a trifecta of beach, beauty and buzz, with a distinctly more relaxed take on the Marbella experience.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess

Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons —  feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.

Spirit of Boston: New England’s Cultural, Political and Economic Hub Grows Ever Stronger

Boston was founded in 1630, and even then, government and city leaders were creating urban projects and hosting guests from the colonies. Boston’s early city projects focused primarily on establishing its colonial government, infrastructure and civic institutions rather than modern urban planning. In the decades to come, however, the “city on the hill” transformed from a small Puritan settlement into the political, cultural and economic hub of New England.
