St Giles Hotel Celebrates The US Open!

St Giles Hotels, along with American tennis players  – John Isner, Sam Querrey, Steve Johnson and Reilly Opelka came together to celebrate the US Open with a private event to meet the players, take in views of Manhattan from the 360° terrace of the Penthouse Suite at The Tuscany  and support the non-profit organization New York Junior Tennis & Learning (NYJTL).

As part of its Hotels with Heart charity, St Giles Hotels partnered with NYJTL to give young teenagers from its program the opportunity to not only meet these tennis professionals, but also play a few games of table tennis.

“We couldn’t thank St Giles Hotels enough for giving our kids such an unexpected experience to meet these successful tennis professionals and even play a few games of table tennis with them,” said Elena Bantovska, associate director, junior competition, New York Junior Tennis & Learning. “And to leave the event with a brand new Killerspin table autographed by each of the players was a great surprise. Our kids will line up to grab a fresh paddle and try their hand at table tennis on this great new piece of equipment.”

About The Tuscany, A St Giles Signature Hotel

This “gem of midtown” offers 124 residential-style guest rooms and suites, each carefully designed to offer oversized living areas and spacious baths, not often experienced in New York City dwellings. This “home away from home” property was fully refurbished after a multi-million dollar renovation at the end of 2014 and today features a spacious respite in the heart of the city that never sleeps. The hotel has enjoyed a long-standing history in the heart of historic Midtown, as honored by New York magazine’s ‘the best place to live in New York’ list. It was built in 1927 as apartments and later converted to a hotel in the 1950s. Its unique structure has lended itself to spacious design, granting The Tuscany the city’s largest hotel rooms and suites with standard guestrooms averaging 400 sf, nearly double the average hotel room in the city. When guests stay at The Tuscany, they enjoy the convenience of a centralized location given its ideal proximity to NYC landmarks, public transportation, tourist destinations, museums, shopping and restaurants. All St Giles hotels are uniquely positioned in the heart of great cities so that guests can “BE CENTRAL” and feel like a local. The Tuscany is located at 120 E. 39th Street in New York.
