A boutique hotel with stunning views of the Hudson and Manhattan’s West Side, Ink48 was designed with creative professionals in mind. The venue boasts 6,000 square feet and was recently renovated in 2016.
Smaller spaces perfectly accommodate corporate affairs between 12 and 75 guests and come equipped with full multimedia and audio/visual support. However, it’s the Heaven Over Hell Penthouse Suite that steals the spotlight for social events:
• 1,100-square-feet across two levels
• floor-to-ceiling windows
• a private 2,200-square-foot terrace
The hotel also provides an extra service, the Kimpton Relaxation Station, that planners can contract for their event. It offers a variety of services to provide and promote wellness at trade show booths, breakout sessions, event registration areas, and more.
Have a look at their website for more info, or drop by their award-winning rooftop bar, The Press Lounge, for unobstructed views paired with a tasty beverage.
