New York-New York Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas launched a $63 million room remodel project this week of its 1,830 rooms and 155 of its suites. When completed in the summer of 2023, the accommodations will feature new designs and upgraded in-room amenities.
Crafted by design firm HVS Design, in partnership with MGM Resorts International Design Group, the design aesthetic draws inspiration from Las Vegas and New York City. The remodel features design details that harken to New York City, such as rooms with exposed faux brick walls and accent colors such as Big Apple Red and Taxicab Yellow. Rooms will incorporate modern conveniences such as moveable work surfaces, readily available USB/USB-C power outlets and additional shelving and closet space.
Completion of all guestrooms and Spa, Marquis and Players suites is scheduled for summer 2023 with the first collection of standard and premier rooms available for guest stays in late October.
“As we envisioned our design for this project, we incorporated that New York City vibe and twisted it with bold colors and pops of energy to blend with Las Vegas, stressing functionality as a key factor," said Christine Shanahan, principal at HVS Design. "Guests will experience the feel of a loft apartment with convenient touch points and amenities designed to make them feel right at home.”
The room remodel is the next phase of a resort transformation that includes the recently launched Cirque du Soleil’s Mad Apple show, the refurbished and rebranded Big Apple Coaster and the revamped Big Apple Arcade. More enhancements to the property will be announced in the coming months.
