Le Meridien Hotel

Philadelphia, PA

The new hotel is located in the re-purposed historic YMCA building originally constructed in 1912 and located steps from City Hall in Center City.  The hotel consists of 200 bespoke guestrooms and suites as well as newly designed public and function spaces.  The Le Meridien brand has a sophisticated ambiance composed of classic design elements and a modern perspective. Modular, freestanding furniture leaves the interior crisp, imparting a sense of openness and elegant simplicity. The new design is juxtaposed against the original millwork and details that were required to remain.
