LUMA Hotels (Past Sponsor)

Innovative and inviting, LUMA Hotels is a new boutique brand providing exceptional accommodations in San Francisco and New York City. Design-forward and dedicated to elevating the guest experience through advanced technology, both hotels offer luxe amenities such as Frette linens and bathrobes, along with free, full-tilt WiFi and in-room delivery via robot concierges. Located in the new waterfront neighborhood of Mission Bay, LUMA San Francisco was named the #1 Hottest New Hotel in the U.S. by TripAdvisor. With 299 state-of-the-art guest rooms featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and beautiful views, on-site facilities include a professional-level fitness center as well as TWYNE coffee bar and Trevino wine bar. On the 17th floor, the acclaimed rooftop bar Cavaña is a spirited ode to Central and South America, highlighted through elevated cocktails and locally sourced cuisine. Just steps from Oracle Park, Chase Center, CalTrain, and the new Central Subway, LUMA SF is well connected to anywhere in the city you need to be. An oasis in the heart of Manhattan, LUMA Hotel Times Square is among TripAdvisor’s Top 10% Worldwide, offering 130 well-appointed guest rooms just a half-block from Times Square, Broadway, and Bryant Park. On the first floor, the highly rated AperiBar by Charlie Palmer offers a robust Italian menu of housemade pastas, Neopolitan pizzas, and large-format entrees, with small bites, charcuterie, and craft cocktails offered in the welcoming bar and lounge. A serene escape amidst the buzz of Midtown, LUMA NY is extremely convenient to several subway lines as well as Grand Central Terminal and Penn Station, and an ideal home base no matter how widely you roam.
