The 50 Most-Anticipated Hotel Openings of 2026

Kimpton Era Midtown New York, New York

Design: SLCE Architects and INC Architecture & Design
What we’re looking forward to: New York’s Midtown area is crowded with hotels, but the 529-key Kimpton Era stands out for its robust F&B program courtesy of Apicii. A Latin restaurant and taqueria, a brasserie, an izakaya, and a coffee- and cocktail-fueled lounge appeal to visitors and locals alike. Proximity to Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall is also a boon, with built-in guestroom window seats framing views of the city.
