Conrad to replace Embassy Suites in FiDi

The Conrad New York will make its Manhattan debut in 2011 in the
Financial District, Hotel Chatter reported. The Conrad will take the
place of the Embassy Suites New York, an existing Hilton property at
102 North End Avenue. The hotel renovation is slated for completion by
the fourth-quarter 2011, and will be the first Conrad brand to open in
the city. Rumor has it that the luxury hotel will feature rooms
averaging more than 550 square feet. The Conrad
joins the ranks of several other hotels opening downtown this year, like the Andaz Wall Street
and the W New York Downtown. [Hotel
