Accor’s boutique hotel brand MGallery will open its first US flagship hotel at Ink 48 in New York City’s Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood by 2028. This move is a major step in MGallery’s expansion strategy within the North American market.
Ink 48 Details and Renovation
Ink 48, located near the Hudson River, has 222 rooms and suites and features the Hudson Vu rooftop bar with views of the New York City skyline. The hotel is operated by Rebel Hotel Company and owned in partnership by Capstone Equities of New York and Montreal’s Leyad. It will remain open during an extensive renovation and enhancement program designed to
elevate the guest experience while preserving the property’s distinctive character.
MGallery’s Global and Regional Presence
MGallery’s portfolio includes over 125 boutique hotels worldwide, with locations in Vietnam, Switzerland, Morocco, Australia, Canada, and Mexico. In North America, the brand also includes Hotel Ändra in Seattle. Accor’s loyalty program, Accor Live Limitless (ALL), will allow members to earn and redeem points at Ink 48 after it joins MGallery.
Official Statements on Expansion
Maud Bailly, CEO of Sofitel Legends, Sofitel, MGallery and Emblems at Accor, said, “New York City is one of the world’s most influential travel destinations and welcoming Ink 48 into the MGallery Collection represents a significant step forward for
our brand in North America.” She added, “As our preeminent flagship MGallery in the United States, Ink 48 will play an important role in increasing brand awareness and supporting our continued expansion across the region.”
