LUMA's rooms were designed to be sleek, neutral, soothing and anticipatory of every guest demand – whether for business or leisure – every guest room will boast its own hot spot to deliver lightning fast complimentary Wi-Fi, plush beds and Nespresso coffee, ETRO bath amenities, and Frette linens, bathrobes and slippers.
James Beard Award-winning Chef Jose Garces will introduce Ortzi, a Basque-inspired tapas restaurant and bar. The street-level restaurant and bar will be a new concept from the acclaimed Chef, appealing to LUMA guests, travelers, and locals alike. The adjacent bar will offer signature cocktails and a robust wine program, as well as ample bar and café-style seating.
The ground floor lobby has been designed by CCS Architecture, a San Francisco and New York-based design and architecture firm headed up by Cass Calder Smith, who personally oversaw the design, drawing inspiration from the ethos of illumination.
Bright, innovative and inviting, LUMA will take a modern approach to hospitality with a fresh vision, independent spirit, intuitive service and plugged in partnerships, inspiring guests to make the most of the city.
