Trump Soho Preview
Last night I had a chance to check out the new Trump Soho on Spring and Varick street. The mixed used property (hotel/condo) is kind of nutz. I arrived a lil late, so I didn’t get to see the rooms or the view from the top level.
From what I’m told Trump Soho is the tallest building in the area with an unobstructed 360 degree view of Manhattan. I’ll be taking a trip down there another day, so ya’ll can get a flavor for the rooms and the view. Go here for more info. -!YG (more…)
Doha….. The New Dubai?
Over the past year… I’ve had a number of friends moving to Doha, Qatar for career opportunities. Apparently… Doha is making a big push to replace Dubai as the hot spot for investment & tourism in the Middle East. I hope to make a trip out there before the end of the year. -!YG
YG @ The Standard
Here is a sneak peak @ The Standard Hotel’s rooftop. It wasn’t quite finished when we went up there, but it promises to be a great look once it is completed. -!YG
White Line Hotels
My OG Iain Ainsworth has officially launched his new hotel venture – White Line Hotels. Iain used to be one of the head guys in charge @ Design Hotels and has decided to branch out on his own. White Lines currently has a majority of their properties in Europe, but they are looking to expand into other regions. Check out the website and let me know what u think. -!YG
Hotel crime rises in recession
This is a really surprising fact that I read about in USA Today. Crime is never something that comes to mind when I’ve stayed @ a hotel. Definitely makes you think, especially when you reflect on situations like the “Craigslist Killer”. The article included some information from crime experts suggesting what you should do to prevent yourself from becoming a victim. Very prudent info to keep in mind as we enter into the Summer travel season.-!YG
Winter Get-A-Way: Aruba
Aruba’s Tourism Board is going hard 2 entice folks 2 visit for vacation. They have invested $10 million dollars in their “90,000 Friends You Haven’t Met Yet” initative. Aruba is really trying to take the #1 spot from my “second home” The Bahamas with some serious marketing muscle.
