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.

Breathe in the View and Sip in the Moment in Puerto Vallarta

Mindful drinking with an eye on wellness can mean ordering a zero-proof or low ABV cocktail instead of one that’s boozy and stirred, or slowly savoring one glass of wine instead of tossing back two or three. But sometimes, where you’re sipping a beverage can have just as much of a positive effect on your mind, body and spirit as what’s in your glass.

Relais Villa Porta Review

Tucked into a Lake Maggiore enclave overlooking the Gulf of Colmegna, Relais Villa Porta is an idyllic place to take in a side of the Italian Lakes region that’s different from buzzy Lake Como during high season. In 1820, it was built as a hunting lodge, and by the end of the century, was transformed into an inn by Leopoldo Casnedi. Over time, the surrounding parkland was further enhanced with rare plants collected by Pietro Porta, its second owner and botanist, as well as regular guests wanting to support his efforts. This ensured the inn would ultimately sit pretty within a 10,000-square-meter park surrounding the main villa, a 19th-century Liberty-style greenhouse and original Villa Porta mosaic.
